The generic MIPS system type allows building a board agnostic kernel and should be the default starting point for users, so set it as the default system type in Kconfig. Since ip22 is no longer the default, update ip22_defconfig to select CONFIG_SGI_IP22. Signed-off-by: Matt Redfearn <matt.redfearn@xxxxxxxxxx> --- This patch "fixes" the build errors reported by kernelci.org for the allnoconfig, generic_defconfig and tinyconfig targets. There is another workaround for the actual build failure in patchwork here https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/14397/, but since that patch just works around a toolchain bug it is not ideal either. Since toolchains that produce failures here are out in the wild, banning binutils 2.25 & 2.26 doesn't seem helpful as that will just trigger more problems. So perhaps the best thing to do is to update the default system to something which does not suffer the issue and is additionally more modern and actively maintained. --- arch/mips/Kconfig | 2 +- arch/mips/configs/ip22_defconfig | 1 + 2 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/arch/mips/Kconfig b/arch/mips/Kconfig index b3c5bde43d34..005085e75a66 100644 --- a/arch/mips/Kconfig +++ b/arch/mips/Kconfig @@ -71,7 +71,7 @@ menu "Machine selection" choice prompt "System type" - default SGI_IP22 + default MIPS_GENERIC config MIPS_GENERIC bool "Generic board-agnostic MIPS kernel" diff --git a/arch/mips/configs/ip22_defconfig b/arch/mips/configs/ip22_defconfig index 5d83ff755547..4b9e759d8b87 100644 --- a/arch/mips/configs/ip22_defconfig +++ b/arch/mips/configs/ip22_defconfig @@ -1,3 +1,4 @@ +CONFIG_SGI_IP22=y CONFIG_ARC_CONSOLE=y CONFIG_CPU_R5000=y CONFIG_NO_HZ=y -- 2.7.4
