So my question is: How good do the kernel origin vb2 and the media_build vb2 play together? Will modprobe always choose the media_build one? Or will "make install" just overwrite the original file? >> diff --git a/mm/Kconfig b/mm/Kconfig >> index 9b8fccb969dc..cfa6a80d1a0a 100644 >> --- a/mm/Kconfig >> +++ b/mm/Kconfig >> @@ -701,7 +701,7 @@ config ZONE_DEVICE >> If FS_DAX is enabled, then say Y. >> >> config FRAME_VECTOR >> - bool >> + tristate "frame vector" >> >> config ARCH_USES_HIGH_VMA_FLAGS >> bool >> >> But I do not like that solution. >> I would prefer one of these solutions: >> >> 1.

Well, it would be equivalent to options like CRC16 in folder lib. Regards Matthias
