If you grep for select in Kconfig files you will see that dependency checkers in the form of select ... if ... are very rare. Since select does not check for depends-on at all, defbool y is commonly used to enable a config in case all dependencies match. If OF_NUMA only supports ARM64, why not state this there? It is common to enable certain configs in drivers/ only for a some archs. > For new code, we try to avoid putting architecture specific things into the > core Kconfig files. But to avoid arch configs in generic Kconfigs, define HAVE_OF_NUMA, add it as dependency to OF_NUMA and select it in arch/arm64/Kconfig. OF_NUMA is then enabled with defbool y if all requirements are met. This also addresses your concerns below. -Robert > Since arm64 is the only architecture that is currently using this, we don't > want to select it for non-arm64 kernels that happen to select NUMA && OF. > > I will restore the depends, as it is guard against errors in the > architecture specific Kconfig select statements, but I am going to leave the > NUMA && OF in the arm64/Kconfig for clarity. > > >This duplicates code as the same needs to be > >implemented for every arch. > > > > Better to duplicate a single Kconfig select statement a few times in > architecture specific Kconfig files, than force people to continuously > modify the depends in drivers/of/Kconfig -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-efi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
