Date: Thu, 7 Nov 2019 16:21:30 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191107162130.GQ16820@bivouac.eciton.net> (raw)

Patch looks good, but the term "command line" is a bit confusing.
I assume we're talking about whatever way parameters are passed from
pre-edk2 firmware to edk2, right? Is there a more precise term for
this?
