From: Justin M. Forbes on gitlab.com https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-ark/-/merge_requests/2832#note_1684758822 > Right so you are kinda stuck and you default to on. Ok, I get your data source comment now (which is sorta the same as my who-decides-unnecessary comment). I would have thought drivers like these with no intention going on x86 would state that in the Kconfig, but perhaps they are stuck with the same reasoning: why limit it? With some they don't bother. With others they really don't know. A vendor makes a DAC chip, or a regulator, and a driver for it gets upstream. They are hoping to sell those chips to as many vendors as will buy them. AFAIK there is no central registry of "here's everything that is shipping". I still think with this approach, we may end up missing some eccentric hardware not in wide use, but it would be easy enough to turn those back on once a bug is filed. -- _______________________________________________ kernel mailing list -- kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to kernel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
