In binutils/libbfd (bfd/elf.c) it is enforced that all s390 specific ELF notes like e.g. NT_S390_PREFIX or NT_S390_CTRS have "LINUX" specified as note name. Otherwise the notes are ignored. For /proc/vmcore we currently use "CORE" for these notes. Up to now this has not been a real problem because the dump analysis tool "crash" does not check the note name. But it will break all programs that use libbfd for processing ELF notes. So fix this and use "LINUX" for all s390 specific notes to comply with libbfd.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
