[PATCH] mips: econet: fix unmet dependencies for ECONET

From: Julian Braha

Date: Sun Aug 02 2026 - 12:18:04 EST


ECONET selects EARLY_PRINTK_8250, SERIAL_OF_PLATFORM, and SERIAL_8250
without ensuring their dependencies, EARLY_PRINTK and TTY are met. This
causes unmet dependencies:

WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for SERIAL_8250
Depends on [n]: TTY [=n] && HAS_IOMEM [=y] && !S390
Selected by [y]:
- ECONET [=y]

WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for EARLY_PRINTK_8250
Depends on [n]: EARLY_PRINTK [=n] && USE_GENERIC_EARLY_PRINTK_8250 [=y]
Selected by [y]:
- ECONET [=y]

WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for SERIAL_OF_PLATFORM
Depends on [n]: TTY [=n] && HAS_IOMEM [=y] && SERIAL_8250 [=y] && OF [=y]
Selected by [y]:
- ECONET [=y]

Let's select the necessary dependencies, TTY and EARLY_PRINTK, as other
similar architecture options do.

These unmet dependencies were found by kconfirm, a static analysis tool for
Kconfig.

Fixes: 79ee1d20e37c ("mips: econet: Fix incorrect Kconfig dependencies")
Fixes: 35fb26f94dfa ("mips: Add EcoNet MIPS platform support")
