Subject: [PATCH] arm64: fix rodata=full again
Date: Thu,  3 Nov 2022 18:00:15 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221103170015.4124426-1-ardb@kernel.org> (raw)

Commit 2e8cff0a0eee87b2 ("arm64: fix rodata=full") addressed a couple of
issues with the rodata= kernel command line option, which is not a
simple boolean on arm64, and inadvertently got broken due to changes in
the generic bool handling.

Unfortunately, the resulting code never clears the rodata_full boolean
variable if it defaults to true and rodata=on or rodata=off is passed,
as the generic code is not aware of the existence of this variable.

Given the way this code is plumbed together, clearing rodata_full when
returning false from arch_parse_debug_rodata() may result in
inconsistencies if the generic code decides that it cannot parse the
right hand side, so the best way to deal with this is to only take
rodata_full in account if rodata_enabled is also true.
