[PATCH v4 3/8] driver core: Add fw_devlink.strict kernel param

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This param allows forcing all dependencies to be treated as mandatory.
This will be useful for boards in which all optional dependencies like
IOMMUs and DMAs need to be treated as mandatory dependencies.
