Subject: kernel 2.6.0, wrong Kconfig directives
Date: Tue, 23 Dec 2003 00:56:23 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20031222235622.GA17030@sole.infis.univ.trieste.it> (raw)


Hi folks,

Installing 2.6.0 I've found that some kernel options directives are wrong,
in fact the option turns out to be always enabled. I don't think this is 
a desired behaviour.

Sorry for the format, yes I know it's ugly :) but I'll leave to you the proper 
solution :) so I can't make a proper patch.


- IPV6_SCTP___ option is always turned on

./net/sctp/Kconfig:

8:  config IPV6_SCTP__
9: 	    tristate
10:         default y if IPV6=n
11:	    default IPV6 if IPV6
12:
13: config IP_SCTP
14:	    tristate "The SCTP Protocol (EXPERIMENTAL)"
15:	    depends on IPV6_SCTP__


I think something is wrong here, why the 'default y if IPV6=n' ???

 
- INPUT_MOUSEDEV option is always turned on

./drivers/input/Kconfig:

27: config INPUT_MOUSEDEV
28:	    tristate "Mouse interface" if EMBEDDED
29:	    default y
30:	    depends on INPUT

43: config INPUT_MOUSEDEV_PSAUX
44:         bool "Provide legacy /dev/psaux device" if EMBEDDED
45:         default y
46:         depends on INPUT_MOUSEDEV


the tristate directive is ignored in most default configurations since EMBEDDED
is not set, however this doesn't allow to disable INPUT_MOUSEDEV and 
INPUT_MOUSEDEV_PSAUX. I don't suppose this is right.


- SOUND_GAMEPORT option is always turned on

./drivers/input/gameport/Kconfig

22: config SOUND_GAMEPORT
23:         tristate
24:         default y if GAMEPORT!=m
25:         default m if GAMEPORT=m

line 24 is definetly wrong, option is enabled if GAMEPORT=n.


Bye
