Hi,
Waht's the best way to get the U-Boot version string (the one returned by U-Boot cmd "version") from userspace? Arg passed to the kernel? U-Boot env variables and use fw_getenv?
U-Boot disappears when the kernel loads, so the only cross-platform option is to pass a command-line parameter to the kernel. Such a change would probably not be accepted into the mainline, however.
