[PATCH] clk: COMMON_CLK_RPMI should depend on RISCV

[PATCH] clk: COMMON_CLK_RPMI should depend on RISCV

[Geert Uytterhoeven]

The RISC-V platform management interface (RPMI) is only available on
RISC-V platforms.  Hence add a dependency on RISCV, to prevent asking
the user about this driver when configuring a kernel for a different
architecture.

Fixes: 5ba9f520f41a33c9 ("clk: Add clock driver for the RISC-V RPMI clock service group")

And perhaps the "default RISCV" should be dropped, too?

Thanks Geert for catching this.

This patch is against unmerged patches in -next.  So I'll plan to add this 
to the PR that I plan to send to Linus tomorrow -- unless any of the 
drivers/clk maintainers would prefer that I not.

Probably.  I guess we should just add this to the arch/riscv defconfig 
instead.  Let's wait on this one for a few days to see if anyone has any 
comments, and consider that change for v6.18-rc fixes.


thanks again,

- Paul

Sorry, this one got garbled on the way out.  I meant to say that we should 
think about whether it makes sense to use a more fine-grained way to 
enable this by default.

There's little point having "default RISCV" if it's only available on
RISCV in the first place, may as well just be "default y" and be
simpler.

My 2c is that putting it in defconfig is barely worth doing, unless there
are actual platforms that use it.
Does QEMU provide a useful test for it that exercises the various code
paths, that would make it worthwhile to have in defconfig Anup?

Yes, QEMU RPMI support is in the pipeline. The OpenSBI
upstreaming was completed few months back and Linux patches
are going in this merge window (Linux-6.18)

We (Ventana) have already made the QEMU RPMI implementation
public which can be tried until QEMU RPMI upstreaming is completed.
(Refer, dev-upstream branch of https://github.com/ventanamicro/qemu.git)

NOTE: these details are mentioned in cover-letter as well.
(Refer, https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-clk/msg118229.html)

Anup
