Subject: Re: [PATCH] mtd: ubi: make ubi_class constant

在 2024/3/6 3:35, Ricardo B. Marliere 写道:
> Since commit 43a7206b0963 ("driver core: class: make class_register() take
> a const *"), the driver core allows for struct class to be in read-only
> memory, so move the ubi_class structure to be declared at build time
> placing it into read-only memory, instead of having to be dynamically
> allocated at boot time.
