The commitc242f48433("drm: Make FB_CORE to be selected if DRM fbdev emulation is enabled") changed DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION from 'depends on FB' to an effective 'select FB_CORE', so any config that previously had DRM=y and FB=n now has FB_CORE=y and FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE=y. This leads to unmet direct dependencies detected for FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE as reported by Arthur Grillo, e.g: WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE Depends on [n]: VT [=n] && FB_CORE [=y] && !UML [=y] Selected by [y]: - DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION [=y] && HAS_IOMEM [=y] && DRM [=y] && !EXPERT [=n] Arnd Bergmann suggests to drop the select FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE for the DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION Kconfig symbol, since a possible use case could be to enable DRM fbdev emulation but without a framebuffer console.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
