> MVNETA_BM has a dependency on MVNETA, so we can only select the former > if the latter is enabled. However, the code dependency is the reverse: > The mvneta module can call into the mvneta_bm module, so mvneta cannot > be a built-in if mvneta_bm is a module, or we get a link error: > > drivers/net/built-in.o: In function `mvneta_remove': > drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/mvneta.c:4211: undefined reference to > `mvneta_bm_pool_destroy' > drivers/net/built-in.o: In function `mvneta_bm_update_mtu': > drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/mvneta.c:1034: undefined reference to > `mvneta_bm_bufs_free' > > This avoids the problem by further clarifying the dependency so that > MVNETA_BM is a silent Kconfig option that gets turned on by the > new MVNETA_BM_ENABLE option. This way both the core HWBM module and > the MVNETA_BM code are always built-in when needed. > > Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <a...@arndb.de> > Fixes: dc35a10f68d3 ("net: mvneta: bm: add support for hardware buffer > management") Applied.
