Any randconfig that sets I2C=m and FB_MB862XX_I2C=y will encounter a final link failure that looks like this:It compiles fine with I2C=m, FB_MB862XX=m and FB_MB862XX_I2C=y.quoted
drivers/built-in.o: In function `mb862xx_i2c_init': drivers/video/mb862xx/mb862xx-i2c.c:165: undefined reference to `i2c_add_adapter' drivers/built-in.o: In function `mb862xx_i2c_exit': drivers/video/mb862xx/mb862xx-i2c.c:176: undefined reference to `i2c_del_adapter' Since FB_MB862XX_I2C is a bool and not tristate, simply don't offer it at all if core I2C support is not built in.FB_MB862XX_I2C is not a driver, it just adds the i2c support to FB_MB862XX. The relevant thing is whether FB_MB862XX is m or y, so compiling with: I2C=m, FB_MB862XX=y and FB_MB862XX_I2C=y will fail.How would you suggest we fix it then? Perhaps we could simplify the Kconfig space and just get rid of FB_MB862XX_I2C entirely? Is there ever a reason why someone would want it turned off when I2C is present? Paul. --quoted
