Subject: [PATCH] serial: core: Fix handling of options after MMIO address
Date: Mon, 12 Sep 2016 13:29:29 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5e28d338-7667-f889-fae2-5aba0fdeb647@nokia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20160911004554.GA3562@roeck-us.net>
Guenter Roeck reported a regression caused by commit "serial: earlycon:
Extend earlycon command line option to support 64-bit addresses":
console= and earlycon= options have the following format:
...,<addr>,<options>
Historically used here simple_strtoul() had no problems with comma, but the
new and recommended kstrtoull() requires null-terminated string and returns
-EINVAL in case there are "options" at the end. There is no recommended to
use function currently that will support it, so stick to obsolete
simple_strtoull() variant.
