mn10300: Use early_param() to parse "mem=" parameter
This fixes the problem that "init=" options may not be passed to kernel correctly. parse_mem_cmdline() of mn10300 arch gets rid of "mem=" string from redboot_command_line. Then init_setup() parses the "init=" options from static_command_line, which is a copy of redboot_command_line, and keeps the pointer to the init options in execute_command variable. Since the commit 026cee0 upstream (params: <level>_initcall-like kernel parameters), static_command_line becomes overwritten by saved_command_line at do_initcall_level(). Notice that saved_command_line is a command line which includes "mem=" string. As a result, execute_command may point to weird string by the length of "mem=" parameter. I noticed this problem when using the command line like this: mem=128M console=ttyS0,115200 init=/bin/sh Here is the processing flow of command line parameters. start_kernel() setup_arch(&command_line) parse_mem_cmdline(cmdline_p) * strcpy(boot_command_line, redboot_command_line); * Remove "mem=xxx" from redboot_command_line. * *cmdline_p = redboot_command_line; setup_command_line(command_line) <-- command_line is redboot_command_line * strcpy(saved_command_line, boot_command_line) * strcpy(static_command_line, command_line) parse_early_param() strlcpy(tmp_cmdline, boot_command_line, COMMAND_LINE_SIZE); parse_early_options(tmp_cmdline); parse_args("early options", cmdline, NULL, 0, 0, 0, do_early_param); parse_args("Booting ..", static_command_line, ...); init_setup() <-- save the pointer in execute_command rest_init() kernel_thread(kernel_init, NULL, CLONE_FS | CLONE_SIGHAND); At this point, execute_command points to "/bin/sh" string. kernel_init() kernel_init_freeable() do_basic_setup() do_initcalls() do_initcall_level() (*) strcpy(static_command_line, saved_command_line); Here, execute_command gets to point to "200" string !!
