Damn, I shouldn't have only grep'ed under drivers/. @davem: Please look at net/ipv4/arp.c:arp_process() Am I right that CONFIG_NET_ETHERNET=n and CONFIG_NETDEV_1000=y or CONFIG_NETDEV_10000=y will not be handled correctly there? And the best solution is to nuke all #ifdef's in this function and make the code unconditionally available? cu Adrian -- "Is there not promise of rain?" Ling Tan asked suddenly out of the darkness.
