Hi! -next faces some build issues on UML because of unmet direct dependencies. Mostly due to HAS_IOMEM and I2C. warning: (MEDIA_SUBDRV_AUTOSELECT && VIDEO_CX231XX && INV_MPU6050_IIO) selects I2C_MUX which has unmet direct dependencies (I2C && HAS_IOMEM) warning: (ST_IRQCHIP && HIP04_ETH && STMMAC_PLATFORM && DWMAC_IPQ806X && DWMAC_LPC18XX && DWMAC_ROCKCHIP && DWMAC_SOCFPGA && DWMAC_STI && TI_CPSW && PINCTRL_ROCKCHIP && PINCTRL_DOVE && POWER_RESET_KEYSTONE && POWER_RESET_SYSCON && POWER_RESET_SYSCON_POWEROFF && S3C2410_WATCHDOG && VIDEO_OMAP3 && VIDEO_S5P_FIMC && RTC_DRV_AT91SAM9 && VIDEO_OMAP4 && HWSPINLOCK_QCOM && ATMEL_ST && QCOM_GSBI) selects MFD_SYSCON which has unmet direct dependencies (HAS_IOMEM) warning: (MEDIA_SUBDRV_AUTOSELECT && VIDEO_CX231XX && INV_MPU6050_IIO) selects I2C_MUX which has unmet direct dependencies (I2C && HAS_IOMEM) warning: (ST_IRQCHIP && HIP04_ETH && STMMAC_PLATFORM && DWMAC_IPQ806X && DWMAC_LPC18XX && DWMAC_ROCKCHIP && DWMAC_SOCFPGA && DWMAC_STI && TI_CPSW && PINCTRL_ROCKCHIP && PINCTRL_DOVE && POWER_RESET_KEYSTONE && POWER_RESET_SYSCON && POWER_RESET_SYSCON_POWEROFF && S3C2410_WATCHDOG && VIDEO_OMAP3 && VIDEO_S5P_FIMC && RTC_DRV_AT91SAM9 && VIDEO_OMAP4 && HWSPINLOCK_QCOM && ATMEL_ST && QCOM_GSBI) selects MFD_SYSCON which has unmet direct dependencies (HAS_IOMEM) For example MFD_SYSCON cannot build on UML as it depends on HAS_IOMEM. While the symbol MFD_SYSCON has correct dependencies some users of MFD_SYSCON just issue a "select MFD_SYSCON" and bypass the HAS_IOMEM dependency and causing the build to fail. This brings me to a question on kconfig itself, wouldn't it be better to just disable a symbol if it has unmet direct dependencies?
