    CONFIG_TR/CONFIG_LLC: work around the problem with select · da091286
    Al Viro 提交于
    As it is, with PCI/ISA/MCA/CCW all set to n and PCMCIA set to m
    setting TR to y will set LLC to m, with very unpleasant results -
    net/802/psnap gets picked into obj-y, resulting in the kernel
    that won't link - psnap calls functions from llc.  The cause,
    AFAICS, is that kconfig gets rev_dep for LLC containing
    || TR && (deps for TR)
    and even though TR is boolean, both LLC and PCMCIA are tristate
    and that thing becomes || y && (n || m), i.e. || m.  The reason
    for dependency on PCMCIA is that when none of PCI, ISA, MCA, CCW
    or PCMCIA is set there'll be no tokenring drivers, so there's no
    point building tokenring core.  Proper fix probably belongs in
    kconfig (we need strict and, such that y <strict_and> m would be
    y, so that rev_deps added for tristate selected by bool would
    use that instead of &&; we'd have || TR <strict_and> (deps for TR)
    in this case), but it's a rather intrusive change.  There's an
    easy workaround in case of TR -> LLC select, namely to have a def_bool y
    symbol sitting under if TR and have that symbol selecting LLC.
    Kudos to johill for suggesting that one...
