Why EXPORT_PER_CPU_SYMBOL?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In arch/x86/kernel/process_32.c:

EXPORT_PER_CPU_SYMBOL(current_task);
EXPORT_PER_CPU_SYMBOL(cpu_number);
EXPORT_SYMBOL(kernel_thread);
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(start_thread);

What is the rational behind exporting per CPU symbol?
