Hi there.
Looking through the 2.2.0pre1 configuration, I note that the options
relating to tunnelling appear to be rather confused, so can I submit
the enclosed patch to clarify them somewhat.
Basically, it inserts a new config-script-only option to enable or
disable the display of the tunnelling options, then separates out the
IP-over-IP tunnelling option as a distinct option - at least as far as
the help text was concerned, it was as much concerned with saying what
tunnelling in general is as with the particular type of tunnelling it
concerns itself with, and now that we have another tunnelling
protocol, the current format was somewhat confusing...
Note that there COULD be a problem with this patch relating to users
who currently have one or other of these tunnelling protocols enabled,
as they will need to go into the configuration and set the new option
to "y" before the two tunnelling protocols are recognised. Other than
this, no problems are anticipated.
Before anybody asks, yes, it HAS been tested, with both "make config"
and "make menuconfig", and works fine on both. I can't check "make
xconfig" at this time as I don't have X available on the system I'm
on, so I can't comment regarding that...
Best wishes from Riley.
