Subject: [PATCH] i3c: fix module_i3c_i2c_driver() with I3C=n
Date: Fri, 25 Jul 2025 11:06:03 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250725090609.2456262-1-arnd@kernel.org> (raw)
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
When CONFIG_I3C is disabled and the i3c_i2c_driver_register() happens
to not be inlined, any driver calling it still references the i3c_driver
instance, which then causes a link failure:
x86_64-linux-ld: drivers/hwmon/lm75.o: in function `lm75_i3c_reg_read':
lm75.c:(.text+0xc61): undefined reference to `i3cdev_to_dev'
x86_64-linux-ld: lm75.c:(.text+0xd25): undefined reference to `i3c_device_do_priv_xfers'
x86_64-linux-ld: lm75.c:(.text+0xdd8): undefined reference to `i3c_device_do_priv_xfers'
This issue was part of the original i3c code, but only now caused problems
when i3c support got added to lm75.
Change the 'inline' annotations in the header to '__always_inline' to
ensure that the dead-code-elimination pass in the compiler can optimize
it out as intended.
Fixes: 6071d10413ff ("hwmon: (lm75) add I3C support for P3T1755")
Fixes: 3a379bbcea0a ("i3c: Add core I3C infrastructure")
