Message-ID: <alpine.LNX.1.00.0804240057240.2438@dragon.funnycrock.com> Date: Thu, 24 Apr 2008 01:01:59 +0200 (CEST) From: Jesper Juhl <jesper.juhl@...il.com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org cc: Krishna Balasubramanian <balasub@....ohio-state.edu>, Linus Torvalds <torvalds@...ux-foundation.org>, Sam Ravnborg <sam@...nborg.org>, Jesper Juhl <jesper.juhl@...il.com> Subject: [PATCH] Let SYSVIPC default to 'y' SYSVIPC is a pretty crucial feature that I doubt very much if anyone except embedded people should even consider disabling - it simply breaks too much software for a Linux box to really be useful without it, for most purposes. For that reason I find it quite odd that the feature defaults to 'No' currently. I really cannot see any reason why we wouldn't want this to default to 'Yes', so this patch changes the default by adding 'default y' to Kconfig.
