Subject: [PATCH v12 24/25] x86/resctrl: Simplify Kconfig options for resctrl
Date: Wed, 16 Sep 2026 16:13:19 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260916231320.14502-25-tony.luck@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260916231320.14502-1-tony.luck@intel.com>
Linus Torvalds complained[1] about Kconfig complexity making it too
hard for "random people to build their own kernels".
CONFIG_X86_CPU_RESCTRL_INTEL_AET has been causing problems since it was first
added as it required other config options to be set to "built-in". There is
no longer a requirement that INTEL_PMT_TELEMETRY or INTEL_TPMI be built-in.
Drop CONFIG_X86_CPU_RESCTRL_INTEL_AET and unconditionally include
AET (Application Energy Telemetry) as part of X86_CPU_RESCTRL.

v12:
Added [] around "1" in Link tag.
In resctrl Makefile add intel_aet.o to ctrlmondata.o line.
Rewrite commit using imperative.
