You could do ugly things like this:
int i;
char *bios = __va(0xf0000);
for(i = 0; i < 0x10000 - 19; i++) {
if(memcmp(bios + i, "Soekris Engineering", 19) == 0) {
printk("soekris string found at 0x%x\n", i);
}
}
The string "net4801" is also in there (although I'm using a 4826).
If anyone knows a better way, I'd like to know it too.
Hmm, very ugly indeed! Where did you dig those offsets up from? Are they likely
to work properly in non-Soekris devices? I think just relying on people not
loading the module when not in the correct hardware is probably the best option
at the moment...
