The trouble is that once you have multiple layers of such automatically optional pieces of code, Kconfig keels over: select isn't recursive. So if you want to make CEC stuff optional, just compile the DRM stuff only if both CEC and DRM are enabled, and drivers can then select the overall CEC stuff. Or alternatively have dummy functions at the CEC library, and just always compile the DRM CEC stuff in. You could also fix Kconfig, if you have a life or two to spare :-) Cheers, Daniel > > Regards, > > Hans > > > > > Anyway the one you really want here is CONFIG_DRM_KMS_HELPER, but that is > > a selected variable, and you can't mix select and depends on because that > > breaks Kconfig in hilarious ways.
