Hi all,

For a function that is defined static but without an explicit "inline"
keyword, is there a possibility that compiler will optimize it to be a
static inline function?

We observe that some of the functions defined as static but not "inline" in
in modules are not present in kernel system table, i.e., can not be found
in /proc/kallsysms.

Correct me if I am wrong.



Cheers,

Wenda Ni, Ph.D.
