I think Randloph is right, MODULE_PARAM() should be sufficient.


But in case it's not, arch/parisc/kernel/setup.c:
	void __init start_parisc(unsigned arg0, unsigned arg1,

		arg1 is the command_line.

	void __init setup_arch(char **cmdline_p)

		cmdlinux_p is a pointer to "saved_command_line".
		a copy of the original.


An example is in kernel/printk.c:__setup("console=", console_setup);
