Introduces a new env var which specifies which device is the rootfs device to be used in Linux, passed to Linux via bootargs, identified by the rootfs partition's PARTUUID.
global.bootm.root_dev supplements global.bootm.appendroot, in that it overrides appendroot's naïve default, which picks the partition that the kernel resides on (global.bootm.image). Example: detect mmc2 global.bootm.image='/mnt/mmc2.0/zImage' global.bootm.appendroot=1 global.bootm.root_dev=/dev/mmc2.1 boot mmc Signed-off-by: Robert Karszniewicz <[email protected]> --- Changes from v2: - correct commit message line lengths Changes from v1: - minor commit message change Changes from RFC v2: - replaced path_get_linux_rootarg("invalid") by ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) - added error messages.
