This adds a SUN8I_THERMAL that I can't find in the tree? (this also goes for the 32-bit branch) Also, is there a reason to have it =y, or would =m suffice? I see that RCAR is =y, but we should revisit that as well. -Olof

(this also goes for > the 32-bit branch) This is a new driver that got merged through the thermal tree and should be in 5.6 as well: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/thermal/linux.git/commit/?h=thermal/linux-next&id=730a45ccd9322dd918a5dcaf8ae1482400fa5b23 > Also, is there a reason to have it =y, or would =m suffice?

That driver is used for thermal throttling which is pretty critical for us since the boards can get pretty hot, pretty fast (and they don't have a pretty wide temperature operating range either), so it felt natural to have it as y?

Because right now, if someone runs savedefconfig, they disappear. So, please submit after -rc1 (but not too far after) to enable new drivers merged in that window. > > Also, is there a reason to have it =y, or would =m suffice?

The problem with this is that all platforms now have to pay the price of keeping this driver in memory even if it's not needed on that hardware. This is why we're pushing back on drivers being statically built in on the large shared defconfigs. Loading it from ramdisk is usually done early enough that it works out for these cases, or from rootfs if needed. -Olof

And with the options as module. Thanks! Maxime
