If you try strings vmlinux|grep /usr
you get a bunch of strings like: .. /usr/src/linux/include/asm/io.h ..
One other couple of Kb. The problem is not that, but the string comes from: /usr/src/linux/include/asm/io.h: ..(line 110) /* * Temporary debugging check to catch old code using * unmapped ISA addresses. Will be removed in 2.4. */ #if 1 extern void *__io_virt_debug(unsigned long x, const char *file, int line); extern unsigned long __io_phys_debug(unsigned long x, const char *file, int li ne); #define __io_virt(x) __io_virt_debug((unsigned long)(x), __FILE__, __LINE__) //#define __io_phys(x) __io_phys_debug((unsigned long)(x), __FILE__, __LINE__) #else #define __io_virt(x) ((void *)(x)) //#define __io_phys(x) __pa(x) #endif ..
As you see, it was not removed in 2.4...
