From 283e7ad0241155710f99a9f39d13313a53336926 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Ehrenberg Date: Tue, 10 Feb 2015 15:20:50 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] init: stricter checking of major:minor root= values In the kernel command-line, previously, root=1:2jakshflaksjdhfa would be accepted and interpreted just like root=1:2. This patch adds stricter checking so that additional characters after major:minor are rejected by root=. The goal of this change is to help in unifying DM's interpretation of its block device argument by using existing kernel code (name_to_dev_t). But DM rejects malformed major:minor pairs, it seems reasonable for root= to reject them as well. Signed-off-by: Dan Ehrenberg Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer --- Reading git-format-patch failed
