Unable to build device driver modules in kernel 4.4.6 using genkernel
Normally I configure my kernel by hand, but I am trying out using genkernel with menuconfig for simplicity's sake on a new laptop.
Here's my process: Code:
# make defconfig Running Code:
make menuconfig If I Code:
# make defconfig This leads me to think that genkernel is configuring the kernel in a way that prevents this option from being set. I ran Code:
# diff -C0 Before I spend hours going through this diff, I wanted to ask if anyone knows what could be causing this? Thanks. |
You can not use Y if any parent option is set as M. You could use make localmodconfig instead of make defconfig. See /usr/src/linux/README for other make targets.

Thanks
Thanks for pointing me towards the readme, never knew that existed. I played around with the various options but in the end every time I used genkernel it still caused the same result (even the parent itmes could not be set to Y). I decided to ditch genkernel because of this.
