Let's use it... Andrew I just looked at the original version of this patch that went out from mm-commits and the appropriate makefile change was in it. It looks like somewhere in the chaos the makefile change got lost. Resolving conflicting patches perhaps? Anyway here is just the original makefile change hunk taken from the original patch. I prefer it this way primarily because it doesn't make sense to compile this file if we are not compiling sysctl support into the kernel. kernel/Makefile Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxx> --- kernel/Makefile | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff -puN kernel/Makefile~sysctl-move-utsname-sysctls-to-their-own-file-fix-2 kernel/Makefile --- a/kernel/Makefile~sysctl-move-utsname-sysctls-to-their-own-file-fix-2 +++ a/kernel/Makefile @@ -52,6 +52,7 @@ ifeq ($(CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU),y) obj-$(CONFIG_RCU_TRACE) += rcupreempt_trace.o endif obj-$(CONFIG_RELAY) += relay.o +obj-$(CONFIG_SYSCTL) += utsname_sysctl.o obj-$(CONFIG_TASK_DELAY_ACCT) += delayacct.o obj-$(CONFIG_TASKSTATS) += taskstats.o tsacct.o _ Patches currently in -mm which might be from laurent.riffard@xxxxxxx are reiser4-vs-streamline-generic_file_-interfaces-and-filemap.patch sysctl-move-utsname-sysctls-to-their-own-file-fix-2.patch - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe mm-commits" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
