Message-ID: <CAOxq_8N_e9WXR3KHBpDV+K+NOjW+O=y1cbvTq9h9u0YEck5SzA@mail.gmail.com> Date: Tue, 24 May 2016 13:10:35 -0700 From: Ani Sinha <ani@...sta.com> To: "linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org" <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> Subject: hwmon.c as a kernel module in 3.18 Hi guys : I am facing this interesting issue and I can't quite figure out what the root cause is. Any help will be greatly appreciated. In my old 3.4 kernel, I had configured HWMON (CONFIG_HWMON) as a module ('m'). Now I am trying to upgrade to 3.18 and I am trying to keep the same kernel configuration as much as I can. The weird thing is, after setting CONFIG_HWMON to 'm. when I do config oldconfig, it's setting it back to 'y' (in-built module). I can't figure out which kernel option is turning the 'm' to 'y'. I have done menuconfig, then searched for the symbol and then looked at all the dependencies. However I am still clueless. I am wondering if there is some debug option which when turned on will print out some logs which will give me more insights into why this is happening. thanks a lot in advance ani
