Several reasons for this: * Several modules maintain internal version numbers, that they print at boot/module load time, that are not exposed to userspace, as a primitive mechanism to make revision number control from the earlier days of Netfilter. * IPset shows the protocol version at boot/module load time, instead display this via module description, as Jozsef suggested. * Remove copyright notice at boot/module load time in two spots, the Netfilter codebase is a collective development effort, if we would have to display copyrights for each contributor at boot/module load time for each extensions we have, we would probably fill up logs with lots of useless information - from a technical standpoint. So let's be consistent and remove them all. Acked-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Acked-by: Jozsef Kadlecsik <kadlec@blackhole.kfki.hu> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> |

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.
