> (2) are we turning this on because there is a Customer need, or because the script for configs can't handle it? The former makes sense, but the latter would be puzzling to me. The script for configs can handle any valid configs, the problem is you have an invalid config. As to what has been reviewed and approved, aarch64 would have CONFIG_DEVMEM off and CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM on. The later would silently flip CONFIG_DEVMEM to on, but our scripts alert us that it is happening and will not allow it because it is not what we have set. > If we're going to leave it enabled, we want STRICT_DEVMEM=y so it's not so easy to crash the kernel. But turning DEVMEM on only for the -debug kernel makes the most sense to me. I am happy to flip it back to off for aarch64 RHEL configs. The mismatch just has to be cleared up in one way or another. As it was, we had untracked files in pending-common. _______________________________________________ kernel mailing list -- kernel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to kernel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/kernel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
