Subject: [PATCH] mshv: add vmbus dependency
Date: Wed, 20 May 2026 09:40:12 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260520074044.923728-1-arnd@kernel.org> (raw)
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
When the vmbus driver is not part of the kernel, the mvhv_root
driver now fails to link:
ERROR: modpost: "hv_vmbus_exists" [drivers/hv/mshv_root.ko] undefined!
Avoid this by adding an explicit Kconfig dependency. Note that
stubbing out the hv_vmbus_exists() based on configuration would
also work for some cases, but not with MSHV_ROOT=y and HYPERV_VMBUS=m.
Fixes: f1a9e67c1138 ("mshv: limit SynIC management to MSHV-owned resources")
