OK, but... The name is poor.
q:/usr/src/25> grep EXPORT_SYMBOL lib/genalloc.c EXPORT_SYMBOL(gen_pool_create); EXPORT_SYMBOL(gen_pool_add_virt); EXPORT_SYMBOL(gen_pool_virt_to_phys); EXPORT_SYMBOL(gen_pool_destroy); EXPORT_SYMBOL(gen_pool_alloc); EXPORT_SYMBOL(gen_pool_alloc_algo); EXPORT_SYMBOL(gen_pool_dma_alloc); EXPORT_SYMBOL(gen_pool_free); EXPORT_SYMBOL(gen_pool_for_each_chunk); EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(gen_pool_avail); EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(gen_pool_size); EXPORT_SYMBOL(gen_pool_set_algo); EXPORT_SYMBOL(gen_pool_first_fit); EXPORT_SYMBOL(gen_pool_first_fit_align); EXPORT_SYMBOL(gen_pool_fixed_alloc); EXPORT_SYMBOL(gen_pool_first_fit_order_align); EXPORT_SYMBOL(gen_pool_best_fit); EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(gen_pool_get); EXPORT_SYMBOL(devm_gen_pool_create); EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(of_gen_pool_get);
