From 67e38cdac3e94b3a3f6aa38a539073e659fea52c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tomaz Solc Date: Wed, 27 Feb 2019 14:22:15 +0100 Subject: ARM: rpi: save bootargs from VC FDT to vc.bootargs When booting a Raspberry Pi, it is useful to extract bootargs from the device tree that was created by the VideoCore firmware. These bootargs contain for example settings for the framebuffer that the kernel needs to properly set the video output. This commit extracts the bootargs in the board initialization code and saves them to the vc.bootargs global variable. For example, a bootloader environment can then add the contents of this variable to linux.bootargs.vc, which then gets included into the final bootargs for the kernel using CONFIG_FLEXIBLE_BOOTARGS.
