From 520dc2a526fd681337883b6ff1ddcf7c23b1b063 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Paris Date: Mon, 13 Jul 2009 15:56:54 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] fsnotify: use def_bool in kconfig instead of letting the user choose fsnotify doens't give the user anything. If someone chooses inotify or dnotify it should build fsnotify, if they don't select one it shouldn't be built. This patch changes fsnotify to be a def_bool=n and makes everything else select it. Also fixes the issue people complained about on lwn where gdm hung because they didn't have inotify and they didn't get the inotify build option.....
