Re: [net:master 1/9] pch_gbe_main.c:(.text+0x510370): undefined referenceto `pch_ch_control_write'

The failure is due to the CONFIG_PPS is not set there, consequently CONFIG_PTP_1588_CLOCK can not be set as =y anyway.

So David's patch of "da1586461e53a4dd045738cce309ab488970f0ef [1/9] pch_gbe: Fix PTP dependencies" is buggy. Furthermore, I think using "selects" to resolve such dependency issue is not good idea as it won't visit the dependencies.

David, I would still suggest to take my original patch:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/9/28/70

+ depends on PTP_1588_CLOCK_PCH && (PCH_GBE=m || PTP_1588_CLOCK_PCH=y)

or simply like:

Fix build error caused by broken PCH_PTP module dependency.
The .config is:
CONFIG_PCH_GBE=y
CONFIG_PCH_PTP=y
CONFIG_PTP_1588_CLOCK=m

The build error:

Say Y here if you want to use Precision Time Protocol (PTP) in the
driver. PTP is a method to precisely synchronize distributed clocks
