Hi Ingo, can you add this small notice to the lockdep option ? Lock dependency infrastructure forces all legacy code which uses lock to now depend on lockdep_init_map symbol, which is GPL-only. It means that almost no modules can work on kernel with CONFIG_LOCKDEP set. Let's warn user about that. vmmon: module license 'unspecified' taints kernel. vmmon: Unknown symbol lockdep_init_map Thanks, Petr Vandrovec Signed-off-by: Petr Vandrovec <petr@vandrovec.name> --- linux-2.6.17-3130.dist/lib/Kconfig.debug 2006-07-04 19:31:36.000000000 +0200 +++ linux-2.6.17-3130/lib/Kconfig.debug 2006-07-04 21:55:35.000000000 +0200 @@ -214,6 +214,9 @@ For more details, see Documentation/lockdep-design.txt. + Do not enable this option if you are using non-GPL modules, or + they will fail to load due to missing symbol lockdep_init_map. + config LOCKDEP bool depends on TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT && STACKTRACE_SUPPORT && LOCKDEP_SUPPORT - 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/ | ||||||||||
