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.

My recent commit b6d49cab ("net: Make PTP-specific drivers depend on PTP_1588_CLOCK") exposes a missing dependency in defconfigs that select TI_CPTS without selecting PTP_1588_CLOCK, leading to linker errors of the form: drivers/net/ethernet/ti/cpsw.o: in function `cpsw_ndo_stop': cpsw.c:(.text+0x680): undefined reference to `cpts_unregister' ... That's because TI_CPTS_MOD (which is the symbol gating the _compilation_ of cpts.c) now depends on PTP_1588_CLOCK, and so is not enabled in these configurations, but TI_CPTS (which is the symbol gating _calls_ to the cpts functions) _is_ enabled. So we end up compiling calls to functions that don't exist, resulting in the linker errors. This patch fixes build errors and restores previous behavior by: - ensure PTP_1588_CLOCK=y in TI specific configs and CPTS will be built - remove TI_CPTS_MOD and, instead, add dependencies from CPTS in TI_CPSW/TI_KEYSTONE_NETCP/TI_CPSW_SWITCHDEV as below: config TI_CPSW_SWITCHDEV ... depends on TI_CPTS || !TI_CPTS which will ensure proper dependencies PTP_1588_CLOCK -> TI_CPTS -> TI_CPSW/TI_KEYSTONE_NETCP/TI_CPSW_SWITCHDEV and build type selection. Note. For NFS boot + CPTS all of above configs have to be built-in.
