Kconfig set default macro bug?

2014-04-09 Thread Matthias Brugger
Hi all, I'm just playing with the early printk macros of the low level printk. The address of the UART port is set to a default value [1]. So if you save the config and then enter again in menuconfig, you are not able to change the value to a different default value (I suppose because Kconfig see

I am running an ARM cpu and linux kernel during kernel init on SMP enabled (running with single core in DT) sends SGI to itself while SMP disabled does not. Am puzzled why it does that? AFAIK there is no hyper threading on ARM On Wed, Apr 9, 2014 at 4:51 PM, Kristofer Hallin wrote: > Using SMP w
