Without the change to drivers/Makefile, drivers/ptp/ is not visited when CONFIG_PTP_1588_CLOCK=n. If you then have CONFIG_PCH_GBE=y you end up with: drivers/built-in.o: In function `pch_gbe_ioctl': pch_gbe_main.c:(.text+0x28c914): undefined reference to `pch_ch_control_write' pch_gbe_main.c:(.text+0x28c945): undefined reference to `pch_set_station_address' pch_gbe_main.c:(.text+0x28c964): undefined reference to `pch_ch_event_write' pch_gbe_main.c:(.text+0x28c9ae): undefined reference to `pch_ch_control_write' pch_gbe_main.c:(.text+0x28c9c7): undefined reference to `pch_ch_control_write' pch_gbe_main.c:(.text+0x28c9e6): undefined reference to `pch_ch_control_write' pch_gbe_main.c:(.text+0x28ca17): undefined reference to `pch_set_station_address' drivers/built-in.o: In function `pch_gbe_xmit_frame': pch_gbe_main.c:(.text+0x28ceab): undefined reference to `pch_ch_event_read' pch_gbe_main.c:(.text+0x28cebb): undefined reference to `pch_tx_snap_read' pch_gbe_main.c:(.text+0x28ced8): undefined reference to `pch_ch_event_write' drivers/built-in.o: In function `pch_gbe_napi_poll': pch_gbe_main.c:(.text+0x28da6c): undefined reference to `pch_ch_event_read' pch_gbe_main.c:(.text+0x28da78): undefined reference to `pch_src_uuid_lo_read' pch_gbe_main.c:(.text+0x28da83): undefined reference to `pch_src_uuid_hi_read' pch_gbe_main.c:(.text+0x28db0c): undefined reference to `pch_ch_event_write' pch_gbe_main.c:(.text+0x28df69): undefined reference to `pch_rx_snap_read' pch_gbe_main.c:(.text+0x28df88): undefined reference to `pch_ch_event_write' make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1 Hence the above paragraph.
