The practice of using __pure getter functions to access global variables in the EFI stub dates back to the time when we had to carefully prevent GOT entries from being emitted, because we could not rely on the toolchain to do this for us. Today, we use the hidden visibility pragma for all EFI stub source files, which now all live in the same subdirectory, and we apply a sanity check on the objects, so we can get rid of these getter functions and simply refer to global data objects directly. So switch over the remaining boolean variables carrying options set on the kernel command line. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
