Subject: [ndctl PATCH v2] cxl/list: remove libtracefs build dependency for --media-errors
Date: Tue, 23 Sep 2025 21:52:57 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250924045302.90074-1-alison.schofield@intel.com> (raw)
When the --media-errors option was added to cxl list it inadvertently
changed the optional libtracefs requirement into a mandatory one.
Ndctl versions 80,81,82 no longer build without libtracefs.
Remove that dependency.
When libtracefs is disabled the user will see a 'Notice' level
message, like this:
$ cxl list -r region0 --media-errors --targets
cxl list: cmd_list: --media-errors support disabled at build time
...followed by the region listing including the output for any other
valid command line options, like --targets in the example above.
When libtracefs is disabled the cxl-poison.sh unit test is omitted.
The man page gets a note:
The media-error option is only available with -Dlibtracefs=enabled.
Reported-by: Andreas Hasenack <andreas.hasenack@canonical.com>
Fixes: d7532bb049e0 ("cxl/list: add --media-errors option to cxl list")
Closes: https://github.com/pmem/ndctl/issues/289
