From b1fa60ec252fba39130107074becd12d0b3f83ec Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Florian Fainelli Date: Thu, 16 May 2024 09:56:30 -0700 Subject: net: Always descend into dsa/ folder with CONFIG_NET_DSA enabled Stephen reported that he was unable to get the dsa_loop driver to get probed, and the reason ended up being because he had CONFIG_FIXED_PHY=y in his kernel configuration. As Masahiro explained it: "obj-m += dsa/" means everything under dsa/ must be modular. If there is a built-in object under dsa/ with CONFIG_NET_DSA=m, you cannot do "obj-$(CONFIG_NET_DSA) += dsa/". You need to change it back to "obj-y += dsa/". This was the case here whereby CONFIG_NET_DSA=m, and so the obj-$(CONFIG_FIXED_PHY) += dsa_loop_bdinfo.o rule is not executed and the DSA loop mdio_board info structure is not registered with the kernel, and eventually the device is simply not found. To preserve the intention of the original commit of limiting the amount of folder descending, conditionally descend into drivers/net/dsa when CONFIG_NET_DSA is enabled.
