No, it would be an unresolved symbol at link time.
What exactly is the problem you are trying to solve?
I want the data available to some functions inside the kernel to be available to my modules also. I thought i will generally call some extern funct from inside and then define it later from my modules which doesnt work. Now i am trying to do it through fucntion pointers which are exported so that i can change it in my module. still dont have the exact idea to accomplish the task .
