Subject: Re: [PATCH v2] stmmac: cleanup dead dependencies on STMMAC_PLATFORM and STMMAC_ETH in Kconfig
Date: Mon, 6 Apr 2026 10:27:07 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <f914fb50-ffca-49dd-901d-0b0176e5ee93@gmail.com> (raw)

Hi Geert,
With the patch applied, I've attempted to configure the kernel
with STMMAC_PLATFORM=y while STMMAC_ETH=m but menuconfig gives this
error message:
"This feature depends on another which has been configured as a module.
As a result, this feature will be built as a module."
So it looks to me like this patch hasn't actually changed any kconfig
behavior, but let me know if I'm missing something.
Best regards,
Julian Braha
