Hm. They're both in active use in 2.4.5pre4. My cross-referencer shows CONFIG_ARCH_NEXUSPCI: arch/arm/config.in arch/arm/boot/Makefile arch/arm/kernel/entry-armv.S arch/arm/kernel/arch.c snark:~/src/linux$ scripts/kxref.py -f "o&~h&~x" -n defconfig | grep FTVPCI Reading cross-reference database...done. CONFIG_ARCH_FTVPCI: arch/arm/Makefile arch/arm/config.in arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile arch/arm/kernel/Makefile arch/arm/kernel/bios32.c arch/arm/kernel/debug-armv.S arch/arm/def-configs/clps7500 arch/arm/def-configs/shark On further investigation I find that neither of these symbols is actually set in the ARM config file! This is kind of a mess. Is it going to be fixed in the next merge? (They're not the only dead symbols. CONFIG_TBOX and CONFIG_SHARK don't have associated questions either.) -- Eric S.
