Also, the existing checks for those symbols check for whether it is defined, not for the actual value. With what you have there, the driver will always enable /dev/ports because CONFIG_DEVPORT is defined. What are you actually trying to achieve? Arnd

replace 'arch_has_dev_port()' to 'CONFIG_DEVPORT' modified: arch/powerpc/include/asm/io.h modified: drivers/char/mem.c modified: include/linux/io.h why do we need 'arch_has_dev_port()' if we have a 'CONFIG_DEVPORT'?
