But we don't mention anywhere whether the kernel is big or little endian. If we print the utsname->machine value instead we get either "ppc64" or "ppc64le" which is much more informative, eg: Starting Linux ppc64le #1 SMP Wed Apr 15 12:12:20 AEST 2015 Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman --- diff --git a/arch/powerpc/kernel/setup_64.c b/arch/powerpc/kernel/setup_64.c index c69671c03c3b..9fe3dcdbfca7 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/kernel/setup_64.c +++ b/arch/powerpc/kernel/setup_64.c @@ -523,7 +523,8 @@ void __init setup_system(void) smp_release_cpus(); #endif - pr_info("Starting Linux PPC64 %s\n", init_utsname()->version); + pr_info("Starting Linux %s %s\n", init_utsname()->machine, + init_utsname()->version); pr_info("-----------------------------------------------------\n"); pr_info("ppc64_pft_size = 0x%llx\n", ppc64_pft_size);
