03/06: initrd: Use non-hyphenated kernel command-line parameter names.


From: guix-commits
Subject: 03/06: initrd: Use non-hyphenated kernel command-line parameter names.
Date: Tue, 1 Mar 2022 13:28:05 -0500 (EST)

apteryx pushed a commit to branch master
in repository guix.

commit 0dc019e19a23fea614be5623360849ab9bc35e74
Author: Maxim Cournoyer <maxim.cournoyer@gmail.com>
AuthorDate: Thu Feb 17 23:28:07 2022 -0500

    initrd: Use non-hyphenated kernel command-line parameter names.
    
    This is to make it less surprising, given the common convention sets forth 
by
    the kernel Linux command-line parameters.
    
    * gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (boot-system): Rename '--load', '--repl', 
'--root'
    and '--system' to 'gnu.load', 'gnu.repl', 'root' and 'gnu.system',
    respectively.  Adjust doc.
    (find-long-option): Adjust doc.
    * gnu/installer/parted.scm (installer-root-partition-path): Adjust 
accordingly.
    * gnu/system.scm (bootable-kernel-arguments): Add a VERSION argument and
    update doc.  Use VERSION to conditionally return old style vs new style 
initrd
    arguments.
    (%boot-parameters-version): Increment to 1.
    (operating-system-boot-parameters): Adjust doc.
    (operating-system-boot-parameters-file): Likewise.
    * gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (raw-initrd, base-initrd): Likewise.
    * doc/guix.texi: Adjust doc.
    * gnu/build/activation.scm (boot-time-system): Adjust accordingly.
    * gnu/build/hurd-boot.scm (boot-hurd-system): Likewise.
    * gnu/packages/commencement.scm (%final-inputs-riscv64): Adjust comment.
