This patch introduce changes to netcp modules and makefile to build the driver as dynamic modules. This also convert existing cpsw_ale.c as a module so that it can be re-used across netcp and ti_cpsw drivers. This also fixes the issue seen when build using arm allmodconfig I have made an allmodconfig with this patch and the build succeeds.
make allmodconfig make uImage LOADADDR=0x80008000; make modules After the build all of the following .ko files are seen Note: need to verify this on a platform with TI CPSW. drivers/net/ethernet/ti/cpsw_ale.ko drivers/net/ethernet/ti/davinci_cpdma.ko drivers/net/ethernet/ti/davinci_emac.ko drivers/net/ethernet/ti/davinci_mdio.ko drivers/net/ethernet/ti/keystone_netcp_ethss.ko drivers/net/ethernet/ti/keystone_netcp.ko drivers/net/ethernet/ti/ti_cpsw.ko drivers/net/ethernet/ti/tlan.ko This also has dependency on the following patches for netcp :- [1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/1/28/1102 [2] https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/1/29/881 [3] https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/1/29/882 History: v1: Added Acked-by and Tested-by following:- Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann <[email protected]> Acked-by: Lad, Prabhakar <[email protected]> Acked-by: Mugunthan V N <[email protected]> Tested-by: Mugunthan V N <[email protected]> Murali Karicheri (1): drivers: net: cpsw: make cpsw_ale.c a module to allow re-use on Keystone drivers/net/ethernet/ti/Kconfig | 19 +++++++++++++++++-- drivers/net/ethernet/ti/Makefile | 8 +++++--- drivers/net/ethernet/ti/cpsw_ale.c | 26 ++++++++++++++++++++++++-- drivers/net/ethernet/ti/netcp_core.c | 8 ++++++++ drivers/net/ethernet/ti/netcp_ethss.c | 5 +++++ 5 files changed, 59 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) -- 1.7.9.5 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
