[PATCH] ARM: at91: fix build for SAMA5D3 w/o L2 cache

[PATCH] ARM: at91: fix build for SAMA5D3 w/o L2 cache

[Peter Rosin]

The L2 cache is present on the newer SAMA5D2 and SAMA5D4 families, but
apparently not for the older SAMA5D3. At least not always.

Solves a build-time regression with the following symptom:

sama5.c:(.init.text+0x48): undefined reference to `outer_cache'

Fixes: 3b5a7ca7d252 ("ARM: at91: setup outer cache .write_sec() callback if needed")

Hi!

I'm not sure this is the correct solution? Maybe SAMA5D3 should bring
in CONFIG_OUTER_CACHE unconditionally instead? But that seems like a
bigger change, and not just a tweak of the regressing commit...

Cheers,
Peter

It's been a week or so of silence, thus CC:ing the regression bot so
that this issue is not lost.

Hi, this is your Linux kernel regression tracker.

Clément Léger and Claudiu Beznea: what's up here? Is there a particular
reason why this patch did get any feedback from you by now? It's ten
days old and Peter already sent a kind of reminder a few days ago.

Reminder, ideally this regression should be fixed by now. For details
see the section "Prioritize work on fixing regressions"  in
Documentation/process/handling-regressions.rst (
https://docs.kernel.org/process/handling-regressions.html )

Ciao, Thorsten (wearing his 'the Linux kernel's regression tracker' hat)

P.S.: As the Linux kernel's regression tracker I deal with a lot of
reports and sometimes miss something important when writing mails like
this. If that's the case here, don't hesitate to tell me in a public
reply, it's in everyone's interest to set the public record straight.

Hi Thorsten,

Sorry for the lack of answer, I'm not sure about the best solution to
tackle this problem. adding IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_OUTER_CACHE) seems like a
good way to avoid modifying the whole configuration. If ok for Claudiu,
I think it is the best thing to do since it will work for all cases.

Peter, what do you mean by "at least not always" here? Are you talking
about the OUTER_CACHE flag?

Something wrong with the email client on my side as I lost this patch. It
is back on my radar since Peter replied to it.

I'm not familiar with all options for L2 caching. I was just being cautious
to not exclude the possibility that there could be some variation within
the SAMA5D3 series (I'm on SAMA5D31) or with an external L2 cache or
something such. If there's simply no possible way to have an L2 cache on
any SAMA5D3, feel free to edit that "At least not always" out while you
commit.

I confirm that there is no L2 cache in any variant of SAMA5D3.
