Subject: [PATCH net] net: enetc: fix the netc-lib driver build dependency
Date: Tue, 3 Jun 2025 18:50:56 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250603105056.4052084-1-wei.fang@nxp.com> (raw)
The kernel robot reported the following errors when the netc-lib driver
was compiled as a loadable module and the enetc-core driver was built-in.
ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: ntmp_init_cbdr
referenced by enetc_cbdr.c:88 (drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/enetc/enetc_cbdr.c:88)
ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: ntmp_free_cbdr
referenced by enetc_cbdr.c:96 (drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/enetc/enetc_cbdr.c:96)
Simply changing "tristate" to "bool" can fix this issue, but take into
account that the netc-lib driver needs to support being compiled as a
loadable module. So we can solve this issue and support "tristate" by
setting the default value.

Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com>
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/oe-kbuild-all/202505220734.x6TF6oHR-lkp@intel.com/
Fixes: 4701073c3deb ("net: enetc: add initial netc-lib driver to support NTMP")

Arnd Bergmann has posted a similar patch [1], but it has not been updated
since the first version, perhaps he is busy with more important things.
In order to fix the issue ASAP, I made this patch. And I added the
Reported-by tag to give credit to Arnd Bergmann.
