[ Upstream commit 9852f47ac7c993990317570ff125e30ad901e213 ] After [1] in upstream LLVM, ld.lld's version output became slightly different when the cmake configuration option LLVM_APPEND_VC_REV is disabled. Before: Debian LLD 19.0.0 (compatible with GNU linkers) After: Debian LLD 19.0.0, compatible with GNU linkers This results in ld-version.sh failing with scripts/ld-version.sh: 18: arithmetic expression: expecting EOF: "10000 * 19 + 100 * 0 + 0," because the trailing comma is included in the patch level part of the expression. While [1] has been partially reverted in [2] to avoid this breakage (as it impacts the configuration stage and it is present in all LTS branches), it would be good to make ld-version.sh more robust against such miniscule changes like this one. Use POSIX shell parameter expansion [3] to remove the largest suffix after just numbers and periods, replacing of the current removal of everything after a hyphen. ld-version.sh continues to work for a number of distributions (Arch Linux, Debian, and Fedora) and the kernel.org toolchains and no longer errors on a version of ld.lld with [1].

README
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
