https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=229209 Bug ID: 229209 Summary: Linux kernel version number calculation inconsistent Product: Base System Version: CURRENT Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: kern Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: chuck@tuffli.net The Linux compatibility code is converting the version number (e.g. 2.6.32) in two different ways and then comparing the results. The linux_map_osrel() function converted MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH similar to what FreeBSD does natively. I.e. where major=v0, minor=v1, and patch=v2 v = v0 * 1000000 + v1 * 1000 + v2; The LINUX_KERNVER() macro, on the other hand, converted the value with bit shifts. I.e. where major=a, minor=b, and patch=c v = (((a) << 16) + ((b) << 8) + (c)) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
