Linux kernel source tree
d1d7730ff8
In a previous commit, Ubuntu kernel code version is correctly set by retrieving the information from /proc/version_signature. commit<5b3d72987701d51bf31823b39db49d10970f5c2d> (libbpf: Improve LINUX_VERSION_CODE detection) The /proc/version_signature file doesn't present in at least the older versions of Debian distributions (eg, Debian 9, 10). The Debian kernel has a similar issue where the release information from uname() syscall doesn't give the kernel code version that matches what the kernel actually expects. Below is an example content from Debian 10. release: 4.19.0-23-amd64 version: #1 SMP Debian 4.19.269-1 (2022-12-20) x86_64 Debian reports incorrect kernel version in utsname::release returned by uname() syscall, which in older kernels (Debian 9, 10) leads to kprobe BPF programs failing to load due to the version check mismatch. Fortunately, the correct kernel code version presents in the utsname::version returned by uname() syscall in Debian kernels. This change adds another get kernel version function to handle Debian in addition to the previously added get kernel version function to handle Ubuntu. Some minor refactoring work is also done to make the code more readable.

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.
