This is caused by cris not using the generic drivers/Kconfig, and thus not traversing drivers/video/console/Kconfig. As the build system does traverse drivers/video/console/Makefile, fonts.c is compiled with an inconsistent configuration. Two solutions: 1. Add drivers/video/console/Kconfig to arch/cris/Kconfig, 2. Switch cris to drivers/Kconfig, I prefer two, as this is what's done by all (except h8300) other architectures. This will seriously broaden the scope of allmodconfig, though, and require more fixes (e.g. missing ). Note: The decision logic for compiling drivers/video/console/fonts.c is overly complicated, and seems to be buggy for some stuff living outside drivers drivers/video (drivers/media/platform/vivi.c and drivers/staging/media/solo6x10/solo6x10-enc.c). I think this should be resolved in Kconfig logic, using a new FONT_SUPPORT symbol (FONTS is already taken).
