| |
Hi Christoph,
My module, and information about it, can be found at: https://cdcvs.fnal.gov/redmine/projects/trace https://cdcvs.fnal.gov/redmine/projects/trace/repository/show/src_module with the header at https://cdcvs.fnal.gov/redmine/projects/trace/repository/raw/include/trace.h
It seems that you are the person that I have to convince in order to get my patch accepted. Is this true?
Can you tell me how: ./kernel/trace/power-traces.c:17:EXPORT_TRACEPOINT_SYMBOL_GPL(power_start); ./kernel/trace/power-traces.c:19:EXPORT_TRACEPOINT_SYMBOL_GPL(cpu_idle); should be allowed (how it fits with your definition of the Linux kernel below) and my proposed EXPORTS not? I hope that you will not suggest removing the above 2 exports.
Thanks, Ron
