I see NOUVEAU is moved out of X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES, but it selects ACPI_WMI & MXM_WMI which are still under X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES menu, causing such warning if I selected DRM_NOUVEAU while not X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES: [archuser@archtop linux-3.5]$ make oldconfig scripts/kconfig/conf --oldconfig Kconfig warning: (DRM_NOUVEAU) selects ACPI_WMI which has unmet direct dependencies (X86 && X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES && ACPI) warning: (DRM_NOUVEAU) selects MXM_WMI which has unmet direct dependencies (X86 && X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES && ACPI_WMI) warning: (DRM_NOUVEAU) selects ACPI_WMI which has unmet direct dependencies (X86 && X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES && ACPI) warning: (DRM_NOUVEAU) selects MXM_WMI which has unmet direct dependencies (X86 && X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES && ACPI_WMI) # # configuration written to .config # I think this may be a general error of kconfig direct dependencies system: whenever a sub item (ACPI_WMI here) is selected by something else (DRM_NOUVEAU here) while the item's parent (X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES) dependency is unmet, shouldn't we select all its dependency automatically? in this case, maybe easier just fix DRM_NOUVEAU to also select X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES, but I think it's not the right way and in future we will have more similar warnings -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kbuild" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
