[PATCH v3 18/22] dyndbg: treat comma as a token separator

From: Łukasz Bartosik
Date: Fri Dec 22 2023 - 20:56:37 EST


From: Jim Cromie <jim.cromie@xxxxxxxxx>

Treat comma as a token terminator, just like a space. This allows a
user to avoid quoting hassles when spaces are otherwise needed:

:#> modprobe drm dyndbg=class,DRM_UT_CORE,+p\;class,DRM_UT_KMS,+p

or as a boot arg:

drm.dyndbg=class,DRM_UT_CORE,+p # todo: support multi-query here

Given the myriad ways a boot-line can be assembled and then passed
in/down/around shell based tools, if the >control parser treats commas
like spacees, this would allow side-stepping all sorts of quoting
hassles thru those layers.
