From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: arnd@arndb.de (Arnd Bergmann) Date: Mon, 09 Nov 2015 15:08:57 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] mvneta: add FIXED_PHY dependency Message-ID: <4225885.EYXTHjRPmX@wuerfel> To: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org List-Id: linux-arm-kernel.lists.infradead.org The fixed_phy infrastructure is done in a way that is optional, by providing 'static inline' helper functions doing nothing in include/linux/phy_fixed.h for all its APIs. However, three out of the four users (DSA, BCMGENET, and SYSTEMPORT) always 'select FIXED_PHY', presumably because they need that. MVNETA is the fourth one, and if that is built-in but FIXED_PHY is configured as a loadable module, we get a link error: drivers/built-in.o: In function `mvneta_fixed_link_update': fpga-mgr.c:(.text+0x33ed80): undefined reference to `fixed_phy_update_state' Presumably this driver has the same dependency as the others, so this patch also uses 'select' to ensure that the fixed-phy support is built-in. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann Fixes: 898b2970e2c9 ("mvneta: implement SGMII-based in-band link state signaling") --- Found using ARM randconfig tests. An alternative here would be to use 'depends on FIXED_PHY || FIXED_PHY=n', I picked the 'select' approach for consistency. Should we perhaps make 'FIXED_PHY' a silent option and remove the inline helpers, based on the assumption that a driver that wants these will not work without them? diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/Kconfig b/drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/Kconfig index 80af9ffce5ea..a1c862b4664d 100644 --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/Kconfig +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/Kconfig @@ -44,6 +44,7 @@ config MVNETA tristate "Marvell Armada 370/38x/XP network interface support" depends on PLAT_ORION select MVMDIO + select FIXED_PHY ---help--- This driver supports the network interface units in the Marvell ARMADA XP, ARMADA 370 and ARMADA 38x SoC family.
