Its filename was i386-2048-byte-command-line.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: i386: 2048-byte command line From: Alon Bar-Lev Current implementation allows the kernel to receive up to 255 characters from the bootloader. While the boot protocol allows greater buffers to be sent. In current environment, the command-line is used in order to specify many values, including suspend/resume, module arguments, splash, initramfs and more. 255 characters are not enough anymore. After edd issue was fixed, and dynammic kernel command-line patch was accepted, we can extend the COMMAND_LINE_SIZE without runtime memory requirements.
