What you could actually do would be config UNIX bool "Unix domain sockets" if EMBEDDED default y since as the help text already says everything other than Y is expected to cause problems - and if people know they are in a space limited environment and really don't need it they'll still be able to disable it. As a bonus, making it a bool would allow to make the kernel image slightly smaller for everyone. cu Adrian -- "Is there not promise of rain?" Ling Tan asked suddenly out of the darkness.

allmodconfig: udev won`t start due to CONFIG_UNIX=m
Hi ! i build a kernel with allmodconfig and didn`t get my system to boot with that. after some investigation i found that it was due to udev: udevd[1226]: init_udev_socket: error getting socket: Address family not supported by protocol this was missing support UNIX DOMAIN SOCKETS at boot time. easy - so i added unix.ko to my initrd. but that didn`t make a difference. Still same error with udev. seems, there are others who stepped into this trap and someone telling, unix domain sockets cannot be modular https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-476363-highlight-.html https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-463793-highlight-.html since we have 1206 options set to "Y" anyway, would it make sense to remove module support for Unix Domain Sockets ? opensuse103:/home/kernel/linux-2.6.23 # cat .config.allmodconfig |grep "=y" |wc -l 1206 opensuse103:/home/kernel/linux-2.6.23 # cat .config.allmodconfig |grep "=m" |wc -l 2098 i also came across this one: http://readlist.com/lists/vger.kernel.org/linux-kernel/41/205717.html __ XXL-Speicher, PC-Virenschutz, Spartarife & mehr: Nur im WEB.DE Club!
