Subject: [PATCH 1/4] docs: dt: Document new bootargs chosen property
Date: Sun, 12 May 2024 15:25:08 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240512132513.2831-2-ansuelsmth@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240512132513.2831-1-ansuelsmth@gmail.com>
The bootargs property might be overridden by bootloaders on kernel load,
in such scenario, bootargs-override might be used instead. With
bootargs-override set, any value set in bootargs will be ignored.
The bootargs-append can be used to append additional kernel arguments
to the bootargs property. This can be useful in the context of a
bootargs overridden by the bootloader that contains correct that but
the kernel require additional one to be correctly setup.
