Subject: [PATCH][Resend] Let SYSVIPC default to 'y'
Date: Sun, 27 Apr 2008 22:11:03 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LNX.1.00.0804272208250.2352@dragon.funnycrock.com> (raw)

Andrew; Will you take this in -mm or should I just queue it in Trivial (or 
drop it entirely)?


SYSVIPC is a pretty crucial feature that I doubt very much if anyone 
except embedded people should even consider disabling - it simply 
breaks too much software for a Linux box to really be useful without it, 
for most purposes.
For that reason I find it quite odd that the feature defaults to 'No' 
currently.  I really cannot see any reason why we wouldn't want this to 
default to 'Yes', so this patch changes the default by adding 'default y' 
to Kconfig.
