IIRC that isn't what the expression does, if vxlan is 'n' then n || !n == true The other version of this is (m || VXLAN != m) Basically all it does is prevent MLX5_CORE=y && VXLAN=m > and how do we compile mlx5_vxlan.o wihout a single flag > can i do in Makefile : > mlx5_core-$(VXLAN || !VXLAN) += mlx5_vxlan.o ?? No, you just use VXLAN directly, it will be m, n or y, but it won't be m if mlx5_core is y Jason _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
