The dependencies for LED configuration are highly inconsistent and too complicated at the moment. One of the results is a randconfig failure I get very rarely when LEDS_CLASS is in a loadable module, but the wireless core is built-in: WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for MAC80211_LEDS Depends on [n]: NET [=y] && WIRELESS [=y] && MAC80211 [=y] && (LEDS_CLASS [=m]=y || LEDS_CLASS [=m]=MAC80211 [=y]) Selected by [m]: - IWLEGACY [=m] && NETDEVICES [=y] && WLAN [=y] && WLAN_VENDOR_INTEL [=y] - IWLWIFI_LEDS [=y] && NETDEVICES [=y] && WLAN [=y] && WLAN_VENDOR_INTEL [=y] && IWLWIFI [=m] && (LEDS_CLASS [=m]=y || LEDS_CLASS [=m]=IWLWIFI [=m]) && (IWLMVM [=m] || IWLDVM [=m]) aarch64-linux-ld: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath5k/led.o: in function `ath5k_register_led': led.c:(.text+0x60): undefined reference to `led_classdev_register_ext' aarch64-linux-ld: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath5k/led.o: in function `ath5k_unregister_leds': led.c:(.text+0x200): undefined reference to `led_classdev_unregister' For iwlwifi, the dependency is wrong, since this config prevents the MAC80211_LEDS code from being part of a built-in MAC80211 driver. For iwlegacy, this is worse because the driver tries to force-enable the other subsystems, which is both a layering violation and a bug because it will still fail with MAC80211=y and IWLEGACY=m, leading to LEDS_CLASS being a module as well. The actual link failure in the ath5k driver is a result of MAC80211_LEDS being enabled but not usable. With the Kconfig logic fixed in the Intel drivers, the ath5k driver works as expected again.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
