There was a recent-ish commit 599dc457c79b ("clocksource/drivers/Kconfig: Fix CLKSRC_PISTACHIO dependencies") to address this problem for one particular clocksource driver, but some other clocksource drivers seem to share the same problem. There are several clocksource config options in "drivers/clocksource/Kconfig" that select 'TIMER_OF' without depending on 'GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS'. Some of them are only manually selectable when 'COMPILE_TEST' is selected. This particular failure seems to be at least partly due to 'ARMV7M_SYSTICK' getting selected. -- -=( Ian Abbott @ MEV Ltd.
