Agreed. It seems that these 'experts' are using the separate divas driver
package anyway.

This is a solution.

It implies that CONFIG_ISDN_CAPI=n, CONFIG_ISDN_DIVAS=y/m or 
CONFIG_ISDN_CAPI=m, CONFIG_ISDN_DIVAS=y will not be possible, and the 
"experts who want to use the DIVAS own API" you were talking about have 
to enable CONFIG_ISDN_CAPI in their kernel. But considering that it 
isn't a new problem, and you as the maintainer hadn't heard about it 
before (it results in the driver not being included into the kernel 
despite CONFIG_ISDN_DIVAS=y), this might be a pure theoretical 
configuration not worth supporting.

Yes, this is possible. DIVAS itself does not depend on CAPI.

Yes, but for only for experts who want to use the DIVAS own API
without CAPI.

I see. So for DIVAS the line 
  obj-$(CONFIG_ISDN_CAPI)+= hardware/
causes the trouble, because all hardware/ driver are meant to be CAPI 
drivers...

In that case we should change hardware/eicon/ as you proposed:
> - let ISDN_DIVAS depend on ISDN_CAPI and

So the solution might be just to change
 
menu "Active Eicon DIVA Server cards"
  depends on NET && ISDN && ISDN_CAPI!=n
to 
menu "Active Eicon DIVA Server cards"
  depends on NET && ISDN && ISDN_CAPI

in drivers/isdn/hardware/eicon/Kconfig
right?

   configurations make sense?
  
  Yes, but for only for experts who want to use the DIVAS own API
  without CAPI.
   
   If not, what about:
   - let ISDN_DIVAS depend on ISDN_CAPI and
   - enable ISDN_DIVAS_DIVACAPI unconditionally (and perhaps even build 
 it into the divas module)?
  
  That would not be correct.
   
The patch below (go into /hardware even for non ISDN_CAPI) is wrong. The
subdir /hardware was created for new drivers using CAPI. So it is 
correct to
go there when ISDN_CAPI != n only.

I don't understand the warnings above. The symbols are exported by 
divas 
modules, so why is it causing warnings? There have been no change in 
the 
divas modules for this. Any change in the kernel module creation 
structure
which may causing this?
   
   These aren't warnings, these are errors.
   
   Due to
 obj-$(CONFIG_ISDN_CAPI)+= hardware/
   
   hardware/ isn't visited with CONFIG_ISDN_CAPI=m when building vmlinux.
   
   This means the modules were built, but the static code they were using 
   wasn't linkd into the kernel.
   
   This might not have occured before since CONFIG_ISDN_CAPI=m, 
   CONFIG_ISDN_DIVAS=y is an unusual configuration.
  
  I see. So for DIVAS the line 
obj-$(CONFIG_ISDN_CAPI)+= hardware/
  causes the trouble, because all hardware/ driver are meant to be CAPI 
  drivers...
  
  In that case we should change hardware/eicon/ as you proposed:
   - let ISDN_DIVAS depend on ISDN_CAPI and
  
  So the solution might be just to change
   
  menu Active Eicon DIVA Server cards
depends on NET  ISDN  ISDN_CAPI!=n
  to 
  menu Active Eicon DIVA Server cards
depends on NET  ISDN  ISDN_CAPI
  
  in drivers/isdn/hardware/eicon/Kconfig
  right?
 
 
 This is a solution.
 
 It implies that CONFIG_ISDN_CAPI=n, CONFIG_ISDN_DIVAS=y/m or 
 CONFIG_ISDN_CAPI=m, CONFIG_ISDN_DIVAS=y will not be possible, and the 
 experts who want to use the DIVAS own API you were talking about have 
 to enable CONFIG_ISDN_CAPI in their kernel. But considering that it 
 isn't a new problem, and you as the maintainer hadn't heard about it 
 before (it results in the driver not being included into the kernel 
 despite CONFIG_ISDN_DIVAS=y), this might be a pure theoretical 
 configuration not worth supporting.

Agreed. It seems that these 'experts' are using the separate divas driver
package anyway.

Let me try to understand this:

Does it make sense to have CONFIG_ISDN_DIVAS=y, CONFIG_ISDN_CAPI=m?
And do CONFIG_ISDN_DIVAS=y/m, CONFIG_ISDN_DIVAS_DIVACAPI=n 
configurations make sense?

If not, what about:
- let ISDN_DIVAS depend on ISDN_CAPI and
- enable ISDN_DIVAS_DIVACAPI unconditionally (and perhaps even build 
  it into the divas module)?

These aren't warnings, these are errors.

Due to
  obj-$(CONFIG_ISDN_CAPI)+= hardware/

hardware/ isn't visited with CONFIG_ISDN_CAPI=m when building vmlinux.

This means the modules were built, but the static code they were using 
wasn't linkd into the kernel.

This might not have occured before since CONFIG_ISDN_CAPI=m, 
CONFIG_ISDN_DIVAS=y is an unusual configuration.

Not quite true. Yes, the base modules for the divas driver do not require 
ISDN_CAPI, but without ISDN_CAPI it doesn't make any sense.

The patch below (go into /hardware even for non ISDN_CAPI) is wrong. The
subdir /hardware was created for new drivers using CAPI. So it is correct to
