If my understanding is correct, the correct way of implementing this feature is by a combination of changes in the kernel & Glibc. I don't have the skill necessary to do that, and by virtue of the fact that these uname patches have been floating around for so many years, nobody with the skill has the inclination to fix this.

That is correct - stock coreutils' uname(1) reports "unknown" for -i/-p on Linux, though some distributions provide their own down-stream patches. As such I'm closing this bug. regards, - assaf From unknown Sat Sep 06 03:34:35 2025 Received: (at fakecontrol) by fakecontrolmessage; To: internal_control@debbugs.gnu.org From: Debbugs Internal Request Subject: Internal Control Message-Id: bug archived.
