Subject: [PATCH v10 16/17] x86/resctrl: Simplify Kconfig options for resctrl
Date: Wed, 29 Jul 2026 10:27:51 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260729172752.11561-17-tony.luck@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260729172752.11561-1-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".
AET now resolves PMT symbols at runtime via the registration API,
so INTEL_PMT_TELEMETRY no longer needs to be built-in. This means
that AET can be included unconditionally as part of X86_CPU_RESCTRL.
