[PATCH] MM: Make Contiguous Memory Allocator depends on MMU

[PATCH] MM: Make Contiguous Memory Allocator depends on MMU

[Manjunath Goudar]

s patch adds a Kconfig dependency on an MMU being available before
CMA can be enabled.  Without this patch, CMA can be enabled on an
MMU-less system which can lead to issues. This was discovered during
randconfig testing, in which CMA was enabled w/o MMU being enabled,
leading to the following error:

 CC      mm/migrate.o
mm/migrate.c: In function a??remove_migration_ptea??:
mm/migrate.c:134:3: error: implicit declaration of function a??pmd_trans_hugea??
[-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
   if (pmd_trans_huge(*pmd))
   ^
mm/migrate.c:137:3: error: implicit declaration of function a??pte_offset_mapa??
[-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
   ptep = pte_offset_map(pmd, addr);

This is a migration code but you are updating configuration for CMA
which doesn't make much sense to me.
I guess you wanted to disable migration for CMA instead?

 Yes you are right.Already Chen Gang has written similar patch.

In this patch MIGRATION config is not required MMU, because already CMA
config depends
on MMU and HAVE_MEMBLOCK if both are true then only selecting MIGRATION and
MEMORY_ISOLATION.

No, I think it should be config MIGRATION that should depend on MMU
explicitly because that is where the problem exists. It shouldn't rely
on other configs to not select it automatically.

The question is. Does CMA need to depend on MMU as well? Why?
But please comment on the original thread instead.

I went through the mm/Kconfig, I think MMU dependence is not required
for CMA.

OK, it turned out that it is needed in the end. Kcofing forces selects
so CMA config would force MIGRATION even if that one depends on MMU.
