Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] bootconfig: Support embedding a bootconfig file in kernel
Date: Mon, 14 Mar 2022 18:08:41 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <164724892075.731226.14103557516176115189.stgit@devnote2> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <164724890153.731226.1478494969800777757.stgit@devnote2>

This allows kernel developer to embed a default bootconfig file in
the kernel instead of embedding it in the initrd. This will be good
for who are using the kernel without initrd, or who needs a default
bootconfigs.
This needs to set two kconfigs: CONFIG_EMBED_BOOT_CONFIG=y and set
the file path to CONFIG_EMBED_BOOT_CONFIG_FILE.

Note that you still need 'bootconfig' command line option to load the
embedded bootconfig. Also if you boot using an initrd with a different
bootconfig, the kernel will use the bootconfig in the initrd, instead
of the default bootconfig.
