We know the Renesas BSP uses LTSI kernels, and the very nature of the fact that this typo has been spotted by the Renesas BSP team suggests that they are indeed looking at/using this functionality ... (Ok, so maybe they will thus apply the fix themselves, but that's not my point, and if they 'have' to apply the fix - it should be in stable?) It feels a bit presumptuous to state that we shouldn't fix this because /we/ don't utilise it yet, when this issue is in mainline regardless ... > tag. Kieran, would that be OK with you ? I would suspect that the work Sasha does would potentially pick this up anyway; automatically even without the tag? (Especially with the keyword fixup/fixes in the commit message) If I've misunderstood the purpose of the stable trees here, then please let me know. Maybe it's more pragmatic to only fix features that are used, but it seems to me like a bug is a bug ... and if it's there, it should be fixed? And I don't think that this is a particularly high 'expense' to the stable trees? -- Kieran >>> Reported-by: Koji Matsuoka <koji.matsuoka.xm@renesas.com> >>> Signed-off-by: Kuninori Morimoto <kuninori.morimoto.gx@renesas.com> >> >> Otherwise, >> >> Yes I can clearly see that this offset is marked as H'3428 at page 32-39 >> within the Gen3 datasheet. >> >> Reviewed-by: Kieran Bingham <kieran.bingham+renesas@ideasonboard.com> > > Reviewed-by: Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart@ideasonboard.com> > > and taken in my branch. > >>> --- >>> drivers/media/platform/vsp1/vsp1_regs.h | 2 +- >>> 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) >>> >>> diff --git a/drivers/media/platform/vsp1/vsp1_regs.h b/drivers/media/platform/vsp1/vsp1_regs.h >>> index 5c67ff9..fe3130d 100644 >>> --- a/drivers/media/platform/vsp1/vsp1_regs.h >>> +++ b/drivers/media/platform/vsp1/vsp1_regs.h >>> @@ -706,7 +706,7 @@ >>> #define VI6_HGT_HUE_AREA_LOWER_SHIFT 16 >>> #define VI6_HGT_HUE_AREA_UPPER_SHIFT 0 >>> #define VI6_HGT_LB_TH 0x3424 >>> -#define VI6_HGT_LBn_H(n) (0x3438 + (n) * 8) >>> +#define VI6_HGT_LBn_H(n) (0x3428 + (n) * 8) >>> #define VI6_HGT_LBn_V(n) (0x342c + (n) * 8) >>> #define VI6_HGT_HISTO(m, n) (0x3450 + (m) * 128 + (n) * 4) >>> #define VI6_HGT_MAXMIN 0x3750 ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

Before backporting it, it would have to be implemented :-) HGT support is in mainline, but not support for the HGT LB (Letter Box) isn't. There's no plan I'm aware of to implement this feature at the moment. I assume that, if and when that feature will be implemented and backported, this patch could be backported as well. > We know the Renesas BSP uses LTSI kernels, and the very nature of the > fact that this typo has been spotted by the Renesas BSP team suggests > that they are indeed looking at/using this functionality ... > > (Ok, so maybe they will thus apply the fix themselves, but that's not my > point, and if they 'have' to apply the fix - it should be in stable?) > > It feels a bit presumptuous to state that we shouldn't fix this because > /we/ don't utilise it yet, when this issue is in mainline regardless ... > > > tag.

Nothing should be in the kernel tree that is not already used by something in that specific kernel tree. We don't care about out-of-tree code, and especially for stable kernel patches, it does not matter in the least. If you have out-of-tree code, you are on your own here, sorry. So no, no backporting of stuff that no one actually uses in the codebase itself. thanks, greg k-h ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

Ok understood, It was really the 'the macro exists in the kernel, but is wrong' part that got me.

IMHO removing all unused register and register bit definitions from drivers would not improve them. On the contrary. These also serve as a kind of documentation, as low-level documentation about the hardware is not always available publicly. > > If you have out-of-tree code, you are on your own here, sorry. > > > > So no, no backporting of stuff that no one actually uses in the codebase > > itself. > > Ok understood, It was really the 'the macro exists in the kernel, but is > wrong' part that got me.

IMHO the real danger lies in not backporting this, and forgetting to backport this fix when future code that does use this definition is backported. This may happen +5 years from now, and the feature may be backported to a 10-year old LTS(i) kernel, causing subtle issues in your 8 year old car... Basically we can do 4 things: 1. Fix the buggy definition, and not backport the fix, => may trigger the issue above. 2. idem, but backport the fix, 3. Remove the buggy definition, and not backport the removal, => may trigger the issue above, if people miss-backport the re-addition. => people may just revert the removal when they need the definition. 4. idem, but backport the removal. => same as 3. So I am in favor of fixing the buggy definition, with a Fixes tag, so stable will pick it up, and anyone else (if any not using LTS) can look for Fixes tags and know what fixes to backport. Of course, all of this can be avoided by using the One Way Of Linux ;-) https://society.oftrolls.com/@geert/102984898449908163 Just my 2€c.
