I thought MODULE was only defined for code that will be part of a module. So "IS_MODULE(CONFIG_USB_GSPCA_submodule)" and "defined(MODULE)" should be equal when used _inside_ [...]/usb/gspca/that_submodule.c, shouldn't they? That would make this option basically identical to my suggestion. Or are you thinking about using these tests outside of these submodules themselves? > or > #if (IS_BUILTIN(CONFIG_INPUT)) || (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_INPUT) && > IS_MODULE(CONFIG_USB_GSPCA_submodule)) I think it's clearer to use IS_BUILTIN(CONFIG_FOO) || (IS_MODULE(CONFIG_FOO) && [...]) Ditto above. Perhaps just a matter of taste. (Depending on INPUT is apparently not possible for these submodules. So obviously any solution needs to check whether input is available, say like if (IS_MODULE(CONFIG_INPUT)) if (!is_input_loaded()) goto no_input; Doesn't it?)
