* *
* kernel_version_get - return the kernel version of the present build * kernel_version_get - return the kernel version of the present build
* *
* The kernel version is a four-byte word divided into three parts. * The kernel version is a four-byte value, whose format is decribed in the
* * file "kernel_version.h".
* Part 1: The two most significant bytes are sub-divided into four nibbles,
* representing the kernel's numeric version -- that is, w.x.y.z.
* (Each numeric element must therefore be in the range 0 to 15, inclusive.)
*
* Part 2: The next most significant byte is used for a variety of flags and
* is broken down as follows:
* Bit 7 - Set for VSP builds; clear for SP builds
* Bit 6 - Set for release builds; clear for debug builds
* Bits 5..0 - Cleared as they are currently unused
*
* Part 3: The least significant byte is reserved for future use.
* *
* RETURNS: kernel version * RETURNS: kernel version
