[PATCH v3 15/17] x86: zboot: Allow overriding the command line

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Sat Sep 5 22:50:51 CEST 2020


When booting Chrome OS images the command line is stored separately
from the kernel. Add a way to specify this address so that images boot
correctly.

Also add comments to the zimage.h header.
