Subject: [PATCH 6/7] pxe_utils: accept "title" inside a label as a synonym for "menu label"
Date: Thu, 04 Jun 2026 19:31:11 +0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260604-bls-v1-6-4ce6d1ee4711@flipper.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260604-bls-v1-0-4ce6d1ee4711@flipper.net>
The parser already understands the "title" keyword at the menu level
(via "menu title"). Boot Loader Specification [1] type #2 entry files
use a bare "title" line at the entry level to give the human-readable
name of the entry, the closest extlinux equivalent of which is
"menu label" inside a label body.
Make parse_label_keys() honour "title" the same way it honours
"menu label", populating label->menu. This lets BLS entries surface
their pretty name through the existing label->menu plumbing without
the BLS bootmeth (or any other caller) having to special-case it.
No effect on existing extlinux/pxelinux files: those use "menu label"
inside a label, not bare "title", so this change is purely additive.
