Hi All,
Can anyone clarify that when should I use _GPL and when not ?
Is there a policy like for new code, it must be _GPL ?
I see in kernel many places _GPL used like EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL( ), but many
places only EXPORT_SYMBOL( ).
Regards,
Sumeet

It is up to the author of the code what they wish to use.
