Package: kernel-source-2.6.8 Version: 2.6.8-15 Severity: normal Tags: patch
Hi, Compilation fails when ACPI_PROCESSOR is set to "m" and we want to use some CPU_FREQ options (X86_POWERNOW_K7, X86_POWERNOW_K8 and X86_SPEEDSTEP_CENTRINO). Randy Dunlap posted[1] a patch on lkml on june 2004 and the problem is solved (at least) in kernel-source-2.6.10. But since kernel-source-2.6.8 is still distributed (and 2.6.8 is going to be the ``official'' kernel for sarge), it would be good to patch it so. I reproduce the patch below: ====== the patch ===== diff -Naurp ./arch/i386/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/Kconfig~cpu_freqs ./arch/i386/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/Kconfig --- ./arch/i386/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/Kconfig~cpu_freqs 2004-06-15 22:19:01.000000000 -0700 +++ ./arch/i386/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/Kconfig 2004-06-17 21:52:21.000000000 -0700 @@ -80,7 +80,7 @@ config X86_POWERNOW_K6 config X86_POWERNOW_K7 tristate "AMD Mobile Athlon/Duron PowerNow!" - depends on CPU_FREQ_TABLE + depends on CPU_FREQ_TABLE && ACPI_PROCESSOR help This adds the CPUFreq driver for mobile AMD K7 mobile processors. @@ -90,7 +90,7 @@ config X86_POWERNOW_K7 config X86_POWERNOW_K8 tristate "AMD Opteron/Athlon64 PowerNow!" - depends on CPU_FREQ && EXPERIMENTAL + depends on CPU_FREQ && ACPI_PROCESSOR && EXPERIMENTAL help This adds the CPUFreq driver for mobile AMD Opteron/Athlon64 processors. @@ -111,7 +111,7 @@ config X86_GX_SUSPMOD config X86_SPEEDSTEP_CENTRINO tristate "Intel Enhanced SpeedStep" - depends on CPU_FREQ_TABLE + depends on CPU_FREQ_TABLE && ACPI_PROCESSOR help This adds the CPUFreq driver for Enhanced SpeedStep enabled mobile CPUs.
