2018-07-11 | x86/boot: Fix early command-line parsing when matching at end | Dave Hansen | |
commit 02afeaae9843733a39cd9b11053748b2d1dc5ae7 upstream. The x86 early command line parsing in cmdline_find_option_bool() is buggy. If it matches a specified 'option' all the way to the end of the command-line, it will consider it a match. For instance, cmdline = "foo"; cmdline_find_option_bool(cmdline, "fool"); will return 1. This is particularly annoying since we have actual FPU options like "noxsave" and "noxsaves" So, command-line "foo bar noxsave" will match *BOTH* a "noxsave" and "noxsaves". (This turns out not to be an actual problem because "noxsave" implies "noxsaves", but it's still confusing.) To fix this, we simplify the code and stop tracking 'len'. 'len' was trying to indicate either the NULL terminator *OR* the end of a non-NULL-terminated command line at 'COMMAND_LINE_SIZE'. But, each of the three states is *already* checking 'cmdline' for a NULL terminator. We _only_ need to check if we have overrun 'COMMAND_LINE_SIZE', and that we can do without keeping 'len' around. Also add some commends to clarify what is going on.

2018-01-05 | x86/boot: Add early cmdline parsing for options with arguments | Tom Lendacky | |
commit e505371dd83963caae1a37ead9524e8d997341be upstream. Add a cmdline_find_option() function to look for cmdline options that take arguments. The argument is returned in a supplied buffer and the argument length (regardless of whether it fits in the supplied buffer) is returned, with -1 indicating not found.

2014-05-20 | x86, boot: Carve out early cmdline parsing function | Borislav Petkov | |
Carve out early cmdline parsing function into .../lib/cmdline.c so it can be used by early code in the kernel proper as well. Adapted from arch/x86/boot/cmdline.c.
