[patch, -git] drivers/media build fix for modular builds

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]


fix allmodconfig build bug introduced in latest -git by commit 
7c91f0624a9 ("V4L/DVB(7767): Move tuners to common/tuners"):

  LD      kernel/built-in.o
  LD      drivers/built-in.o
  ld: drivers/media/built-in.o: No such file: No such file or directory

which happens if all media drivers are modular:

  http://redhat.com/~mingo/misc/config-Wed_Apr_30_09_24_48_CEST_2008.bad

In that case there's no obj-y rule connecting all the built-in.o files and
the link tree breaks.

the fix is to add a guaranteed obj-y rule for the core vmlinux to build.
(which results in an empty object file if all media drivers are modular)
