When a kernel is not built with: CONFIG_HAS_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER_FALLBACK=y We don't currently enable testing fw_fallback.sh. For kernels that still enable the fallback mechanism, its possible to use the async request firmware API call request_firmware_nowait() using the custom interface to use the fallback mechanism, so we should be able to test this but we currently cannot. We can enable testing without CONFIG_HAS_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER_FALLBACK=y by relying on /proc/config.gz (CONFIG_IKCONFIG_PROC), if present. If you don't have this we'll have no option but to rely on old heuristics for now. We stuff the new kconfig_has() helper into our shared library as we'll later expando on its use elsewhere.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
