/*
* Helper macros to generate ELF Note structures , which are put into a
* PT_NOTE segment of the final vmlinux image . These are useful for
* including name - value pairs of metadata into the kernel binary ( or
* modules ? ) for use by external programs .
*
* Each note has three parts : a name , a type and a desc . The name is
* intended to distinguish the note ' s originator , so it would be a
* company , project , subsystem , etc ; it must be in a suitable form for
* use in a section name . The type is an integer which is used to tag
* the data , and is considered to be within the " name " namespace ( so
* " FooCo " ' s type 42 is distinct from " BarProj " ' s type 42 ) . The
* " desc " field is the actual data . There are no constraints on the
* desc field ' s contents , though typically they ' re fairly small .
*
* All notes from a given NAME are put into a section named
* . note . NAME . When the kernel image is finally linked , all the notes
* are packed into a single . notes section , which is mapped into the
* PT_NOTE segment . Because notes for a given name are grouped into
* the same section , they ' ll all be adjacent the output file .
*
* This file defines macros for both C and assembler use . Their
* syntax is slightly different , but they ' re semantically similar .
*
* See the ELF specification for more detail about ELF notes .

* assembler pseudo op defining the type of the data e . g . . asciz while
* ' descdata ' is the data itself e . g . " hello , world " .
