Subject: [PATCH] drm/xe: Don't emit UTS_RELEASE as part of device coredump
Date: Mon, 27 Apr 2026 18:09:03 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260427160902.1126027-2-u.kleine-koenig@baylibre.com> (raw)
UTS_RELEASE changes quite easily (e.g. uncommitted changes in the source
tree or new commits). So when checking if a patch introduces changes to the
resulting binary each usage of UTS_RELEASE is a source of annoyance as
it introduces changes not caused by the change under test.
It's little helpful to emit the kernel version in the device coredump, so
drop the kernel version line from it.

Hello,
I'm not really sure if my assertion above that the kernel version isn't
helpful is actually true.
If yes, there are a few more very similar changes to make:
$ git grep -E 'drm_p.*UTS_RELEASE' v7.1-rc1 drivers/gpu/
v7.1-rc1:drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_dev_coredump.c: drm_printf(&p, "kernel: " UTS_RELEASE "\n");
v7.1-rc1:drivers/gpu/drm/msm/disp/msm_disp_snapshot_util.c: drm_printf(p, "kernel: " UTS_RELEASE "\n");
v7.1-rc1:drivers/gpu/drm/msm/msm_gpu.c: drm_printf(&p, "kernel: " UTS_RELEASE "\n");
v7.1-rc1:drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_devcoredump.c: drm_puts(&p, "kernel: " UTS_RELEASE "\n");
Best regards
Uwe
