Fork of alistair23 Linux kernel for reMarkable from https://github.com/alistair23/linux

Extend "parmarea" to include an offset of the version string, which is stored as 8-byte big endian value. To retrieve version string from bzImage reliably, one should check the presence of "S390EP" ascii string at 0x10008 (available since v3.2), then read the version string offset from 0x10428 (which has been 0 since v3.2 up to now). The string is null terminated. Could be retrieved with the following "file" command magic (requires file v5.34): 8 string \x02\x00\x00\x18\x60\x00\x00\x50\x02\x00\x00\x68\x60\x00\x00\x50\x40\x40\x40\x40\x40\x40\x40\x40 Linux S390 >0x10008 string S390EP >>0x10428 bequad >0 >>>(0x10428.Q) string >\0 \b, version %s Reported-by: Petr Tesarik <ptesarik@suse.com> Suggested-by: Petr Tesarik <ptesarik@suse.com> Reviewed-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Vasily Gorbik <gor@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> |

README
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.
