What about the reverse if mlx5_core is 'm' and VLXAN is 'y'? mlx5_core-m := mlx5_core.o mlx5_core-y += mlx5_vxlan.o Magically works out? > > IIRC that isn't what the expression does, if vxlan is 'n' then > > n || !n == true > > It forces MLX5_CORE to 'm' or 'n' but not 'y' if VXLAN=m, > but allows any option if VXLAN=y And any option if VXLAN=n ?
