Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0707090357580.21984@localhost.localdomain> Date: Mon, 9 Jul 2007 04:05:57 -0400 (EDT) From: "Robert P. J. Day" <rpjday@...dspring.com> To: Linux Kernel Mailing List <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> Subject: [PATCH][RFC] Make profiling uniformly non-menu and non-EXPERIMENTAL. Signed-off-by: Robert P. J. Day <rpjday@...dspring.com> --- the current layout of profiling configuration is a bit of a mess, so this patch tries to make things uniform across all architectures. 1) it's pointless having some arches define profiling as a separate menu while others don't, so remove the surrounding menu where it exists -- it has no value. 2) given how long profiling has been around, it's just as pointless to keep categorizing it as EXPERIMENTAL, so drop all EXPERIMENTAL labels and dependencies. it's particularly meaningless to have Kconfig entries advertise an option as "EXPERIMENTAL" when there is no such dependency for that option, only because you assume that you're getting that dependency from a higher-level Kconfig file, as with arch/i386/oprofile/Kconfig, shown here in its entirety: config PROFILING bool "Profiling support (EXPERIMENTAL)" help Say Y here to enable the extended profiling support mechanisms used by profilers such as OProfile. config OPROFILE tristate "OProfile system profiling (EXPERIMENTAL)" depends on PROFILING help OProfile is a profiling system capable of profiling the whole system, include the kernel, kernel modules, libraries, and applications.
