Trivially, acpi defines this but doesn't seem to use it. include/acpi/acconfig.h:#define UUID_STRING_LENGTH 36 /* Total length of a UUID string */ And Ingo commented last month: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/4/29/69 Maybe this __uuid_to_bin function should be made public and the acpi version in drivers/acpi/acpica/utuuid.c should be removed. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
