Hi Alex, Today's linux-next merge of the vfio tree got a conflict in: drivers/vfio/Kconfig between commit: f57d445eb317 ("Make anon_inodes unconditional") from the vfs tree and commit: cf3f98c7f466 ("drivers/vfio: Allow type-1 IOMMU instantiation with all ARM/ARM64 IOMMUs") from the vfio tree. I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary. This is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any non trivial conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer when your tree is submitted for merging. You may also want to consider cooperating with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any particularly complex conflicts. -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell diff --cc drivers/vfio/Kconfig index 9aa91e736023,9de5ed38da83..000000000000 --- a/drivers/vfio/Kconfig +++ b/drivers/vfio/Kconfig @@@ -21,7 -21,8 +21,7 @@@ config VFIO_VIRQF menuconfig VFIO tristate "VFIO Non-Privileged userspace driver framework" depends on IOMMU_API - select VFIO_IOMMU_TYPE1 if (X86 || S390 || ARM_SMMU || ARM_SMMU_V3) + select VFIO_IOMMU_TYPE1 if (X86 || S390 || ARM || ARM64) - select ANON_INODES help VFIO provides a framework for secure userspace device drivers.
