The new kernel release format is: w.x.y-zz-k where, w.x.y are the current values zzz is the Android Release value k is the KMI Generation number This allows one to identify the kernel module interface version using `uname -r`. The KMI Generation number is used to identify any KMI changes that occur after the KMI freeze. This should only occur in an unlikely event that a security patch requires a KMI update. Here is a local example: 5.4.51-android12-0-00153-ga972f59040e4-dirty Signed-off-by: Will McVicker <willmcvicker@google.com> Bug: 159842160 Change-Id: I33f40e424ca967b85d810cdb12c6a2c58e4197b7 [willmcvicker: squash with commit 0c0d417747d8e289b2808c3fca32c845f82fd5e5]
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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
