+config CLKSRC_ST_LPC_TIMER_SCHED_CLOCK + bool + depends on CLKSRC_ST_LPC + default y + help + Use Low Power controller timer clock source as sched_clockThis adds, as far as I can see, a Kconfig symbol that will always be in lockstep with CLKSRC_ST_LPC. Ie, CLKSRC_ST_LPC and CLKSRC_ST_LPC_TIMER_SCHED_CLOCK will always both be 'n' or both be 'y'. Are there plans to break that lockstep in the future?What's stopping CONFIG_CLKSRC_ST_LPC_TIMER_SCHED_CLOCK=n?If CLKSRC_ST_LPC=y you mean? The lack of a prompt, I'd say. Ie, you would need bool "A very short description" to be able to set these independently. But now I notice that I missed that there appears to be a problem with CLKSRC_ST_LPC too. I'll reply to 2/12 shortly.
Ah, you mean from menuconfig. I almost forgot what that was. ;) I can add a menu option, no problem. -- Lee Jones Linaro STMicroelectronics Landing Team Lead Linaro.org │ Open source software for ARM SoCs Follow Linaro: Facebook | Twitter | Blog -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-watchdog" in the body of a message to majordomo-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
