Subject: [PATCH] modpost: add guid_t type definition
Date: Tue, 27 Aug 2019 14:14:37 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190827111437.22000-1-heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com> (raw)
Since guid_t is the recommended data type for UUIDs in
kernel (and I guess uuid_le is meant to be ultimately
replaced with it), it should be made available here as
well.
