Description Michael Hogsett 2002-06-14 21:10:01 UTC 
With the following in a kernel config file :

options         DEC_ST550

#device         sio0 

The kernel build will fail with

cc -c -O -pipe -mcpu=ev4 -Wall -Wredundant-decls -Wnested-externs -Wstrict-prototypes  -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Winline -Wcast-qual  -fformat-extensions -ansi  -nostdinc -I- -I. -I../.. -I../../../include -I../../contrib/ipfilter  -D_KERNEL -include opt_global.h -elf  -mno-fp-regs -Wa,-mev56  vers.c
linking kernel
dec_st550.o: In function `st550_cons_init':
dec_st550.o(.text+0x124): undefined reference to `comconsole'
dec_st550.o(.text+0x134): undefined reference to `siocnattach'
dec_st550.o(.text+0x138): undefined reference to `siocnattach'
*** Error code 1

Fix: I recommend a comment stating that the serial device(s) are required.

How-To-Repeat: Comment out `device sio0' in the kernel config file.

Applied suggested fix to GENERIC. Will MFC as soon as -stable opens up. Thanks.
