I read your patch and commented that "ifdefs" don't belong in .c files, as the above referenced doc says. My comment on using ifdefs for defining stubs was simply an example of how to get around using ifdefs in C. The doc seems to be suggesting to use IS_ENABLED() to set a flag, which is what the existing code does. Replacing the existing code with IS_ENABLE() would be fine, but seems unnecessary. I don't see a need to change the existing code to add more ifdefs in .c files. Mimi
