[PATCH 2/4] fs: split rootargs into root and options
Fabian Pflug

Fri Nov 28 06:59:01 PST 2025
The rootargs argument (root=/dev/etc rootwait) can be split into the
root and options parts, which makes it easier to manipulate them both
independently. This changes tries to be as backward compatible as
possible and does not change the behaviour of the get functions, but
introduces new ones to get both items seperatly.

* Added space arount rst
* moved asterisk next to identifier
* added newline before brace
* made return-type -ENOSYS (not that it really matters, as the function
will be deleted in the next commit)
* fixed return value for inline wihtout CONFIG_BLOCK

+``{linux.bootargs}`` is replaced with ``root={linux.bootargs.root} {linux.bootargs.rootopts}``
+
+The variable linux.bootargs has been replaced by the two variables
+linux.bootargs.root and linux.bootargs.rootopts, splitting the previous bootargs
+into three parts. A nonexistent fixed "root=", then the root filesystem and then
+additional optional params for this particular filesystem.
+
+for example the previous::
+
+ linux.bootargs="root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=192.168.1.1:/rootfs"
+
+becomes::
+
+ linux.bootargs.root="/dev/nfs"
+ linux.bootargs.rootopts="nfsroot=192.168.1.1:/rootfs"
