Subject: selecting a tristate
Date: Thu, 3 Jul 2008 14:29:19 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080703122919.GA22543@digi.com> (raw)

Hello,

I wrote a network driver that needs CONFIG_CRC32, so I have:

	config NS9XXX_ETH
		tristate "..."
		depends on PHYLIB
		select CRC32

Currently if I choose CONFIG_NS9XXX_ETH=m I get CONFIG_CRC32=y.  I would
prefer to only get CONFIG_CRC32>=CONFIG_NS9XXX_ETH.  I tried to
implement it, but I did't find a way to do so.

Is this idea sensible?  Do you know any breakage this would introduce?

AFAIK "depends on" works this way.  That is if CONFIG_PHYLIB=m above I
cannot select NS9XXX_ETH=y.

Best regards
Uwe
