The Kconfig option is not selected anywhere, and the <asm/mips_machine.h> is not included anywhere either. To make things worse, for years it co-existed with a separate MIPS machine implementation as <asm/machine.h>. The two defined the 'mips_machine' structure with different fields, and the 'MIPS_MACHINE' macro with different parameters.

MIPS: Add generic support for multiple machines within a single kernel 2011-01-18T18:30:21+00:00 Gabor Juhos juhosg@openwrt.org 2010-11-23T15:06:25+00:00 487d70d0b8bd1c70d099a7526077ffefee412050 This patch adds a generic solution to support multiple machines based on a given SoC within a single kernel image. It is implemented already for several other architectures but MIPS has no generic support for that yet. [Ralf: This competes with DT but DT is a much more complex solution and this code has been used by OpenWRT for a long time so for now DT is a bad reason to stop the merge but longer term this should be migrated to DT.] Signed-off-by: Gabor Juhos <juhosg@openwrt.org> Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Cc: kaloz@openwrt.org Cc: Luis R.
