[PATCH] drm/panel: add CONFIG_DRM_KMS_HELPER dependencies

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

The driver fails to build when the KMS helpers are disabled:

This is fairly hard to hit in randconfig drivers, but it eventually
did trigger for me in a configuration where all other DRM drivers
are loadable modules, but DRM_PANEL_WIDECHIPS_WS2401 was built-in.

Adding a dependency in all drivers that select DRM_MIPI_DBI avoids
the problem for now, adding the dependency in DRM_MIPI_DBI as well
should help make it easier to figure out why it breaks if someone
forgets the dependency the next time.

which may already have a fix.

[PATCH] drm/tegra: vic: fix unused-function warnings

[Arnd Bergmann]

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

The use of the old-style SET_RUNTIME_PM_OPS() and
SET_SYSTEM_SLEEP_PM_OPS() macros requires function definitions
to be hidden to avoid

Use the new-style SYSTEM_SLEEP_PM_OPS() and RUNTIME_PM_OPS() instead.

This symbol cannot be selected by users, so it's maybe not a good idea 
to depend on it. In fact, I've had to remove such a statement because it 
created a cyclic dependency. [1]

Making the drivers depend on KMS helpers is the right thing though. If 
there's a better solution, please let me know.

I tried to explain above what I was thinking here: the added dependency
is both a correct statement (DRM_MIPI_DBI depends on DRM_KMS_HELPER
because it cannot be built without DRM_KMS_HELPER) and helpful as
an indication what went wrong if we run into the same problem with a new
driver, instead of the cryptic link failure you get something like

WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for DRM_MIPI_DBI
  Depends on [m]: HAS_IOMEM [=y] && DRM_KMS_HELPER [=m]
  Selected by [y]:
  - DRM_PANEL_WIDECHIPS_WS2401 [=y] && HAS_IOMEM [=y] && DRM [=y] &&

I was going for 'depends on' in the panel drivers because I saw the same being
done for other panel drivers, and mixing the two methods causes dependency
loops. I looked again now, and find that 'select DRM_KMS_HELPER' is more
common for other drivers, and makes sense here because it is generally
not user-selectable.

The easiest replacement for my patch would then be to just use 'select
DRM_KMS_HELPER' from CONFIG_DRM_MIPI_DBI, which makes it
safer and more consistent with your change. If you like, I'll send an updated
version.

One thing I'm not sure about is whether there is still use for ever having
CONFIG_DRM without CONFIG_DRM_KMS_HELPER if it gets selected
by almost every driver anyway. Is this actually a configuration that
users rely on, or should we just remove the symbol completely and
build the KMS helpers unconditionally?

MIPI DBI is another helper and select is not transitive IIRC. So drivers 
would still have to select KMS helpers as well. (?)

I just added my patch to drm-misc-fixes today and it should show up in 
upstream soon. Maybe just rebase your patch on top of it and if nothing 
breaks let's merge it as-is including the 'depends on'. You can add

Acked-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de>

in this case.

More generally, I think you're right about making DRM helper libraries 
using 'depends on' to link to other libraries. Drivers would at least 
know which config symbols to select. A number of config rules would have 
to be adapted to make that happen, I guess.

One issue is that different submodules of DRM seem to use different 
logic for expressing such config dependencies. That's been an endless 
source of problems so far.

Best leave it as it is. i915 doesn't use it. And since it's a helper, it 
should not be lumped together with core DRM code simply for reasons of 
design.

For DRM_KMS_HELPER itself, the mid-term plan is to move some of the code 
into other modules. KMS helpers used to contain all kind of helpers, but 
recently there's interest in reducing the minimum size of a built-in DRM 
with minimal driver support. So the non-essential stuff needs to go into 
modules for the more-sophisticated DRM drivers.

Thomas

MIPI DBI is another helper and select is not transitive IIRC. So drivers 
would still have to select KMS helpers as well. (?)

I just added my patch to drm-misc-fixes today and it should show up in 
upstream soon. Maybe just rebase your patch on top of it and if nothing 
breaks let's merge it as-is including the 'depends on'. You can add

Acked-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de>

in this case.

More generally, I think you're right about making DRM helper libraries 
using 'depends on' to link to other libraries. Drivers would at least 
know which config symbols to select. A number of config rules would have 
to be adapted to make that happen, I guess.

One issue is that different submodules of DRM seem to use different 
logic for expressing such config dependencies. That's been an endless 
source of problems so far.

Best leave it as it is. i915 doesn't use it. And since it's a helper, it 
should not be lumped together with core DRM code simply for reasons of 
design.

For DRM_KMS_HELPER itself, the mid-term plan is to move some of the code 
into other modules. KMS helpers used to contain all kind of helpers, but 
recently there's interest in reducing the minimum size of a built-in DRM 
with minimal driver support. So the non-essential stuff needs to go into 
modules for the more-sophisticated DRM drivers.

Not sure what you mean here: if a driver selects DRM_MIPI_DBI,
and DRM_MIPI_DBI selects DRM_KMS_HELPER, the leaf driver
does not need to select DRM_KMS_HELPER because it is already
selected. This is one of the major problems of overusing 'select' because
you end up unable to turn things off.

Maybe you are thinking of the case where DRM_MIPI_DBI depends
on DRM_KMS_HELPER, and something selects DRM_MIPI_DBI.
In this case, the dependency does /not/ get inherited by the leaf
driver, it needs a copy of the dependency or it triggers a warning,
which is what my patch intended.

Generally speaking, a problem with DRM is that it uses way too
much 'select' to enforce other subsystems to be enabled, this is
what causes DRM to have more problems with incorrect or circular
dependencies, and the only way to avoid that is to be consistent
about the dependencies: each symbol should only be referenced
with either 'select' or 'depends on' but not both, and 'select' should
ideally only be used on hidden symbols.

Hi Arnd,

is this a replacement for __maybe_unused annotations that we would
typically use to address these? Is the ternary operator in PTR_IF enough
to eliminate the warning? Does that work the same way for structure
definitions as it does for conditionals where we use IS_ENABLED() to use
the compiler's DCE for improved coverage?

It looks like it, but just making sure because there's another patch
that fixes this warning by adding __maybe_unused.

Yes to all three.

I sent a lot of patches in the past to add __maybe_unused, but this was
mainly because we could never come up with a good replacement.
Paul Cercueil has finally come up with a good solution, so this is how
we should do it from now on.
