Subject: small prob. with pcmcia Makefile in 2.4.20
Date: Sat, 30 Nov 2002 05:41:53 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20021130104153.GA21939@bagu.org> (raw)
Hello,
I have found a small problem with the pcmcia Makefile in 2.4.20. It seems that
drivers/net/pcmcia/smc91c92_cs.c has a dependency on drivers/net/mii.c. I played
with the Makefile and came up with the following two solutions:
1. -make the following sym. link:
ln -s drivers/net/mii.c drivers/net/pcmcia/mii.c
-apply the following patch:

The problem with these solutions is that if a PCI card that uses mii.c
is selected along with smc91c92_cs.c than two copies of mii.o will be
built. I don't know what will happen if the driver is built into the
kernel. I can't seem to find a solution that fixes this problem. It
seems to me that this problem exists because mii.c is in a different
directory.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this?
Please cc me as I'm not on the list.
Ben
