Hi,<br />
<br />
I am writing a device driver. I have a questions to ask:<br />
a) inline functions in .c file --> Will it be correct to have inline function declared in .c file? I am speaking with respect to device driver meant for the linux kernel. I have a function, which is quite short in terms of function body and it is exported from one module to another. Do you think, I can declare it as an inline in the .c file or I need to move this function declaration along with the EXPORT_SYMBOL line to a .h file just because it is inlined?<br />
For ex -> something like this?<br />
inline void hello_world( )<br />
{............<br />
return;<br />
}<br />
EXPORT_SYMBOL(hello_world);<br />
