Subject: inter_module_get and __symbol_get
Date: Thu, 6 Jan 2005 15:32:25 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050106213225.GJ6184@hygelac> (raw)

Hello,

we've noticed that in recent 2.6.10 kernels that the inter_module_
routines (such as inter_module_get) are marked deprecated. it appears
that the __symbol_ routines (such as __symbol_get) are intended as the
replacement routines.

unfortunately, __symbol_get is only exported as a GPL symbol (I see a
reference to a _gpl verion in module.h, but no definition). is this
intentional? will there be a non-gpled version of an equivalent
routine?

Thanks,
Terence
