That's a good time to start cleaning this up, especially since we mandate single image from the beginning. > Are you concerned about arch/arm64/Kconfig growing wild?

You don't bother introducing Kconfig entries for individual drivers but instead add an obj-*_SOC in various Makefiles under drivers/. If we ever get to a point where we can build (part of) the SoCs as modules (and I'm not talking about kernels shipped with end products but those distro kernel targeting development boards), we have to go back and add such Kconfig entries for specific drivers. So if you do it properly from the beginning with per-driver Kconfig entry, I no longer see the point of an ARCH_TEGRA_*_SOC option. It may be more convenient for people building end products but they should know better what components are required, defconfig is rarely meant for them. I'm looking forward to a patch removing ARCH_TEGRA_132_SOC as well (you can keep the 32-bit arm options if you'd like). -- Catalin -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-tegra" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
