The patch titled flex_array: export symbols to modules has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was flex_array-export-symbols-to-modules.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: flex_array: export symbols to modules From: David Rientjes <rientjes@xxxxxxxxxx> Alex said: I want to use flex_array to store a sparse array of ATM cell re-assembly buffers for my ATM over Ethernet driver. Using the per-vcc user_back structure causes problems when stacked with things like br2684. Add EXPORT_SYMBOL() for all publically accessible flex array functions and move to obj-y so that modules may use this library.
