Interesting...
$ git describe
v6.8-rc1-29-g615d300648869c77
$ make x86_64_defconfig
[...]
$ grep 'LOG_CPU_MAX_BUF_SHIFT\|BASE_SMALL\|BASE_FULL' .config
CONFIG_LOG_CPU_MAX_BUF_SHIFT=0
CONFIG_BASE_FULL=y
CONFIG_BASE_SMALL=0
Does it depend on the flex/bison version?
I have Ubuntu LTS flex 2.6.4-8build2 and bison 2:3.8.2+dfsg-1build1.
