Maybe you have forgot to read *complete* paragraph of my previous letter ? Especially part of paragraph you deleted while quoting. And according to "my opinion" (in RELENG_4 terms): : $ wc -l LINT : 2886 LINT : $ grep ^# LINT | wc -l : 1916 66.4% (or 2/3) of LINT are comments.

Is it hard to check facts before answering ? $FreeBSD: src/sys/i386/i386/mp_machdep.c,v 1.230 2004/01/24 19:52:47 jeff Exp $ : #if defined(I386_CPU) && !defined(COMPILING_LINT) : #error SMP not supported with I386_CPU : #endif : #ifndef DEV_APIC : #error The apic device is required for SMP, add "device apic" to your config file. : #endif : #if defined(CPU_DISABLE_CMPXCHG) && !defined(COMPILING_LINT) : #error SMP not supported with CPU_DISABLE_CMPXCHG : #endif So, I repeat my question "how (based on src/sys/conf/* files) detect these conflicts and dependencies" ? I need conceptual answer only.
