Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.14 06/13] ppp: mppe: Add softdep to arc4
Date: Wed, 03 Jul 2019 02:18:07 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190703021814.18385-6-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190703021814.18385-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
[ Upstream commit aad1dcc4f011ea409850e040363dff1e59aa4175 ]
The arc4 crypto is mandatory at ppp_mppe probe time, so let's put a
softdep line, so that the corresponding module gets prepared
gracefully. Without this, a simple inclusion to initrd via dracut
failed due to the missing dependency, for example.
