Need of MODULE_LICENSE("GPL")

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

 



Hi,
While writing a device driver, I noticed MODULE_LICENSE("GPL"). When I omitted it, I got several error like device_create, device_destroy, class_create, class_destroy is not recognized symbol. I am just wondering what is the use of this macro and how does it helps in defining the symbols. Thanks in advance.
