OK, got it.. May be we can take this patch and then it will be good to take Geoff's following patch. http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/geoff/kexec-tools.git/commit/?id=0b18e1d9311e21d2a2f1392607eade138b9aefe7 With this patch we get something like this: $ ./build/sbin/kexec -v kexec version: 15.05.14.11.29-g4f6d8ec17529 kexec-tools 2.0.10.git released 27 August 2015 So, we have Date, Time and git shaid as well. ~Pratyush _______________________________________________ kexec mailing list [email protected] http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/kexec
