Current early command line parser implementation in assembler
is very difficult to change to relocatable stuff using segment
registers. This requires a lot of changes in very weird and
fragile code. So, reimplement this functionality in C. This
way code will be relocatable out of the box (without playing
with segment registers) and much easier to maintain.

Now that you add a second instance of (some of) these, please
move them to a new (local to this directory) header, e.g. defs.h.

... these replaced by true and false. In fact I see no reason why
you couldn't include xen/stdbool.h here now that it can be more
generally used.

I realize it's minor, but why two arrays instead of

#define delim_chars (delim_chars_comma + 1)

?

I have to admit that I don't really understand what you want to
say with this comment.

Without having spent time to try and find an example, it feels like this
check won't catch all possible overflow conditions. If you care about
overflow, please make sure you catch all cases.

While I don't mind you using the packed attribute on the C variant,
please insert a padding byte here and there to make the four words
aligned, and add an alignment directive to make the whole structure
at least word aligned.

Maybe we should include xen/stdbool.h in defs.h and move to it (defs.h)
all macros, types definitions, etc. from reloc.c and cmdline.c. This way
we can share more stuff without duplicating it in both files. Does it
make sense?

I can try it.

I tried to use following thing suggested by you earlier:
  static const char *delim_chars = &delim_chars_comma[1];

Sadly, it does not work because after building/linking by older
GCC/linker delim_chars contains static address and cannot be
properly relocated during runtime. Newer GCC/linkers are much
smarter and all references to delim_chars and finally to
&delim_chars_comma[1] are properly relocated during runtime.
However, there is a chance that your approach with #define
will work with all supported build environments.

Hmmm.... How come? Could you give an example?

Well, that's what I did suggest in the very first comment still visible

I've never suggested anything like that. All I suggested is the
#define approach you've now said you'd give a try.

Excuse me, but shouldn't you instead demonstrate the logic is
correct? Or - consider what I had said - try to find an example
yourself? It's not that difficult: With 16-bit word size
0x3333 * 10 = 0x1fffe, which truncates to 0xfffe and is hence
larger than both inputs but still produced an overflow. This
easily extends to 32- and 64-bit word size.

Oh, boy. I forgot about multiplication. I think that we can define
res as unsigned long and then check that it is < UINT_MAX.
If not then return UINT_MAX.
