Hello,
I am working on kernel 2.6.32.38, and I see :
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
arch/x86/Kconfig, 202 :
=============
config USE_GENERIC_SMP_HELPERS
def_bool y
depends on SMP
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
arch/Kconfig, 112 :
===========
config USE_GENERIC_SMP_HELPERS
bool
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Although we have this in Kconfig documentation,
================================================
A config option can be defined multiple times with the same name, but every
definition can have only a single input prompt and the type must not
conflict.
================================================
here,
- the first definition is a child of "Linux Kernel Configuration for
x86" MainMenu ( arch/x86/Kconfig, 1 )
- the second definition is a child of "General setup" Menu (
init/Kconfig, 24 )
So the hierarchy is different ; Can someone give explanations on this ?
Thx
