It is possible to enable CONFIG_PCI but disable CONFIG_SYSFS and for space-constrained devices such as routers, such a configuration may actually make sense. However pci-sysfs.c is compiled even if CONFIG_SYSFS is disabled, unnecessarily increasing the kernel's size. To rectify that: * Move pci_mmap_fits() to mmap.c. It is not only needed by pci-sysfs.c, but also proc.c. * Move pci_dev_type to probe.c and make it private. It references pci_dev_attr_groups in pci-sysfs.c. Make that public instead for consistency with pci_dev_groups, pcibus_groups and pci_bus_groups, which are likewise public and referenced by struct definitions in pci-driver.c and probe.c. * Define pci_dev_groups, pci_dev_attr_groups, pcibus_groups and pci_bus_groups to NULL if CONFIG_SYSFS is disabled. Provide empty static inlines for pci_{create,remove}_legacy_files() and pci_{create,remove}_sysfs_dev_files(). Result: vmlinux size is reduced by 122996 bytes in my arm 32-bit test build.

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.
