There It seems your fixes have been accepted in the meantime, but there is one new: *** Default configuration is based on 'x86_64_defconfig' drivers/misc/cxl/Kconfig:8:warning: 'CXL_BASE' selects unknown symbol 'PPC_COPRO_BASE' PPC_COPRO_BASE is not known on x86, but at the same time, there is no way for CXL_BASE to be selected on x86: config CXL_BASE bool default n select PPC_COPRO_BASE config CXL tristate "Support for IBM Coherent Accelerators (CXL)" depends on PPC_POWERNV && PCI_MSI select CXL_BASE default m Shouldn't we only warn about a select when it is triggered? An allyesconfig would still report all bogus selects for given architecture. Michal
