Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org In reading include/linux/init.h, I was surprised to discover that __init{,data} expands to nothing when compiling a module. I was wondering if anyone is contemplating adding support for __init{,data} in module loading, to reduce the memory footprints of modules after they have been loaded. Adam J.
