This is useful to map kernel messages to kernel version in a simple way, i.e., without checking somewhere which kernel version the host that sent the message is using. If this option is selected, then the ";" is prepended before the netconsole message. This is an example of a netcons output, with this feature enabled: 6.4.0-01762-ga1ba2ffe946e;12,426,112883998,-;this is a test Calvin Owens send a RFC about this problem in 2016[1], but his approach was a bit more intrusive, changing the printk subsystem. This approach is lighter, and just append the information in the last mile, just before netconsole push the message to netpoll.
