Subject: [PATCH v3] tty: serial: earlycon dependency
Date: Tue, 18 Aug 2020 12:25:57 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200818162556.6621-1-ztong0001@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200818111954.GA283417@kroah.com>
parse_options() in drivers/tty/serial/earlycon.c calls uart_parse_earlycon
in drivers/tty/serial/serial_core.c therefore selecting SERIAL_EARLYCON
should automatically select SERIAL_CORE, otherwise will result in symbol
not found error during linking if SERIAL_CORE is not configured as builtin.
