UTS_VERSION is set to struct uts_namespace, hence a too long string should be truncated so it fits in 64 characters. On the other hand, LINUX_COMPILE_BY/HOST are not set to uts_namespace. They are just used in the banners, which do not have specific length limitation. I dug into the git history, but I could not find the reason why these two strings must fit in 64 characters. Remove them. Now that UTS_VERSION is the only user of UTS_TRUNCATE, I squashed it. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
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.
