Many embedded systems don't need the full POSIX timer support. Configuring them out provides a nice kernel image size reduction. When POSIX timers are configured out, the PTP clock subsystem should be left out as well. However a bunch of ethernet drivers currently *select* the later in their Kconfig entries. Therefore some more work was needed to break that hard dependency from those drivers without preventing their usage altogether. Therefore this series also includes kconfig changes to implement a new keyword to express some reverse dependencies like "select" does, named "imply", and still allowing for the target config symbol to be disabled if the user or a direct dependency says so. How to deal with the dependencies across three subsystems for potential upstream merging needs to be figured out. The bulk of the diffstat comes from the kconfig lex parser regeneration. diffstat: Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt | 28 + drivers/Makefile | 2 +- drivers/net/ethernet/adi/Kconfig | 2 +- drivers/net/ethernet/amd/Kconfig | 2 +- drivers/net/ethernet/amd/xgbe/xgbe-main.c | 6 +- drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/Kconfig | 4 +- drivers/net/ethernet/cavium/Kconfig | 2 +- drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/Kconfig | 2 +- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/Kconfig | 10 +- drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx4/Kconfig | 2 +- drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/Kconfig | 2 +- drivers/net/ethernet/renesas/Kconfig | 2 +- drivers/net/ethernet/samsung/Kconfig | 2 +- drivers/net/ethernet/sfc/Kconfig | 2 +- drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/Kconfig | 2 +- drivers/net/ethernet/ti/Kconfig | 2 +- drivers/net/ethernet/tile/Kconfig | 2 +- drivers/ptp/Kconfig | 10 +- include/linux/posix-timers.h | 28 +- include/linux/ptp_clock_kernel.h | 65 +- include/linux/sched.h | 10 + init/Kconfig | 17 + kernel/signal.c | 4 + kernel/time/Makefile | 10 +- kernel/time/posix-stubs.c | 118 ++ scripts/kconfig/expr.h | 2 + scripts/kconfig/menu.c | 55 +- scripts/kconfig/symbol.c | 26 +- scripts/kconfig/zconf.gperf | 1 + scripts/kconfig/zconf.hash.c_shipped | 30 +- scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.c_shipped | 1581 ++++++++--------- scripts/kconfig/zconf.y | 16 +- 32 files changed, 1115 insertions(+), 932 deletions(-) -- 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
