Palmer Dabbelt says: ==================== net: macb: Fix compilation on systems without COMMON_CLK, v2 Our patch to add support for the FU540-C000 broke compilation on at least powerpc allyesconfig, which was found as part of the linux-next build regression tests. This must have somehow slipped through the cracks, as the patch has been reverted in linux-next for a while now. This patch applies on top of the offending commit, which is the only one I've even tried it on as I'm not sure how this subsystem makes it to Linus. This patch set fixes the issue by adding a dependency of COMMON_CLK to the MACB Kconfig entry, which avoids the build failure by disabling MACB on systems where it wouldn't compile. All known users of MACB have COMMON_CLK, so this shouldn't cause any issues. This is a significantly simpler approach than disabling just the FU540-C000 support. I've also included a second patch to indicate this is a driver for a Cadence device that was originally written by an engineer at Atmel. The only relation is that I stumbled across it when writing the first patch. Changes since v1 <20190624061603.1704-1-palmer@sifive.com>: * Disable MACB on systems without COMMON_CLK, instead of just disabling the FU540-C000 support on these systems. * Update the commit message to reflect the driver was written by Atmel. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
