Subject: [PATCH net-next] net: kbuild: Don't default net vendor configs to y

From: Saeed Mahameed <[email protected]>

NET_VENDOR_XYZ were defaulted to 'y' for no technical reason.

Since all drivers belonging to a vendor are supposed to default to 'n',
defaulting all vendors to 'n' shouldn't be an issue, and aligns well
with the 'no new drivers' by default mentality.

This was done back when vendors were introduced in the network drivers tree.
The default of Y allowed older configurations to just work.

So there was a reason, not sure if it matters anymore.
But it seems like useless repainting to change it now.

Is there a particular reason to change this?
Broken compiles?  Bad drivers?  Over-sized output?

And changing the defaults means all defconfigs must be updated first,
else the user's configs will end up without drivers needed.

It might make sense to tune some of the defaults (i.e. change to
"default y if ARCH_*") for drivers with clear platform dependencies.

it sounds like it's useless to have it in first place, and it was and still
confusing to me why vendors need to by Y by default, can you explain what
are those "older configurations" ?

The idea of this patch is to set a better example for new vendors and
to have a leaner .config

As I understand correctly, at least for most common net drivers,
having NET_VENDOR_XYZ=y doesn't actually build anything, we have flags per
module for each vendor and those are defaulted to N.

either set hard default to 'n' or just keep it as is, anything else is just
more confusion.

To be clear do we actually care about *old* configs or *def* configs?

Breaking defconfigs seems bad, but I don't think we can break
reasonable oldconfigs at this point?

I'd be afraid that given the work of fixing up defconfigs is
non-trivial we may end up never switching old drivers. And then we'd
have a semi-random soup of defaults :(

+1

Actually, I wouldn't mind breaking old configs. Why? Because never
once have MY configs ever survived a kernel upgrade. Manual fix ups
are always needed.

Nobody cares about my configs, so why should I care about theirs?

Richard

Having default Y is a PITA to people working on an embedded design
that has just one working MAC. It means having to scroll through tons
of empty stuff when doing `make menuconfig`

The oldconfigs would have to not be updated on any intervening kernel
in the last 10+ years to break, right? Or is there another way that an
oldconfig would not have the vendor config set to y at this point?

Right, but once you start hiding NET_VENDOR_DRIVER_XYZ under a
NET_VENDOR_XYZ Kconfig symbol dependency, if NET_VENDOR_XYZ is not set
to Y, then you have no way to select NET_VENDOR_DRIVER_XYZ and so your
old defconfig breaks.

Maybe the rule should go like this: any new driver vendor defaults to n,
and existing ones remain set to y, until we deprecate doing that and
switching them all off to n by 5.18?

That sounds very unrealistic, so yes, I don't think at this point that
would happen. Even if you had your 15 year old .config file and ran make
oldconfig today, you would have some work to do to make sure it still
runs on your hardware.

I think we care about oldconfig but maybe less so about defconfigs which
are in tree and can be updated.

No preference either way for me, just like Richard, all of the systems I
typically work with either require a carefully curated configuration
file to strip out unwanted features. I do like Geert's suggestion of
adding default ARCH_ for slightly esoteric controllers that are not
found in off the shelf hardware.

I think we agree that we don't care about oldconfigs IOW someone's
random config.

But we do care about defconfigs in the tree, if those indeed include
ethernet drivers which would get masked out by vendor=n - they need
fixin':

Why such a hack ?

I think we can fix all defconfig with some scripting, all you have to do
it to add the relevant CONFIG_NET_VENDOR_SOMEONE=y wherever you find one
of its boards in the defconfig.

We can introduce CONFIG_NET_LEGACY_VENDOR that selects all current vendors.
it will be off by default but will be added where needed in the defconfigs

I am getting mixed messages here, on one hand we know that this patch
might break some old or def configs, but on the other hand people claim
that they have to manually fixup their own configs every time
"something in configs" changes and they are fine with that.

Obviously I belong to the 2nd camp, hence this patch..

I can sum it up with "it's fine to controllably break *some* .configs for
the greater good" .. that's my .2cent.

This needs an extra 'savedefconfig' step in the beginning, as a lot of
the defconfig
files are already different from what you get after savedefconfig, both in the
order of options, and in options that got renamed or removed over time.

Just an idea...

1. make foo_defconfig
2. for each vendor, do scripts/config --disable vendor
3. make savedefconfig
4. compare defconfig with foo_defconfig
difference means some MAC was removed
