I was having link failures after backporting 'crypto: nx' patches to a 4.2 based kernel. You may have a point in that the upstream Kconfig will not allow those files to be compiled if CONFIG_VSX=n. I will check in my morning if to see if I can reproduce the same link error in mainline. rtg -- Tim Gardner [email protected] -- 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/
