Dear Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD,
In message 20090723214946.GE9480@game.jcrosoft.org you wrote:
+And to control whether your driver is even enabled, you should use:
- CONFIG_SYS_NET_<DRIVERNAME>
In my proposition CONFIG_SYS_ will be not use for driver enabling but for hardware specific information
Enabling or disabling a driver i ssomething that a dumb user can do, so it should be done using
CONFIG_<DRIVERNAME>
as in CONFIG_E1000, CONFIG_EEPRO100, etc.
+So the APE driver would look like:
- CONFIG_SYS_NET_APE
so it will be CONFIG_NET_APE
No. It should be CONFIG_APE
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk

Niklaus Wirth has lamented that, whereas Europeans pronounce his name
correctly (Ni-klows Virt), Americans invariably mangle it into (Nick-
les Worth). Which is to say that Europeans call him by name, but
Americans call him by value.
