I want to recompile the octeon driver, when i searching the octeon,it logs out

I have set the ATA [=y]、HAS_DMA [=y]、SATA_AHCI_PLATFORM [=y].But i don't know about CAVIUM_OCTEON_SOC

When i search the CAVIUM_OCTEON_SOC,It print out:

Symbol: CAVIUM_OCTEON_SOC [=CAVIUM_OCTEON_SOC] │ │ Type : unknown

What should i do?

Thanks

I suggest looking for the string in the whole repository, or in a kernel source code browser like so: https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/K/ident/CONFIG_CAVIUM_OCTEON_SOC You'll find that Octeon is a MIPS SoC so you need to build the kernel for the MIPS architecture to build the octeon drivers.
