Afaik such dependencies are then built as a module if everything it depends on are modules, and built-in if any of these are built-in. I think most users would be fine with that -- there's little reason to have netfs built-in if AFS ceph etc all are modules? -- Dominique -- Linux-cachefs mailing list Linux-cachefs@xxxxxxxxxx https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cachefs
