I'm not sure what the general feeling is on this - I'm tempted to say that we expect modules to be used and that if they're not then the vendor/user has to do the hoop jumping for themselves. This code won't stop you from making a monolithic kernel and satisfying any module requirements for yourself :-) Jon. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||
