    Add /sys/kernel/notes · da1a679c
    Roland McGrath authored
    
    This patch adds the /sys/kernel/notes magic file.  Reading this delivers the
    contents of the kernel's .notes section.  This lets userland easily glean any
    detailed information about the running kernel's build that was stored there at
    compile time.
