Subject: [PATCH 0/6] rapidio: move Kconfig menu definition to subsystem
Date:   Mon, 30 Jul 2018 18:50:28 -0400
Message-Id: <20180730225035.28365-1-acolin@isi.edu>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

The top-level Kconfig entry for RapidIO subsystem is currently
duplicated in several architecture-specific Kconfig files. This set of
patches does two things:

1. Move the Kconfig menu definition into the RapidIO subsystem and
remove the duplicate definitions from arch Kconfig files.

2. Enable RapidIO Kconfig menu entry for arm and arm64 architectures,
where it was not enabled before. I tested that subsystem and drivers
build successfully for both architectures, and tested that the modules
load on a custom arm64 Qemu model.

For all architectures, RapidIO menu should be offered when either:
(1) The platform has a PCI bus (which host a RapidIO module on the bus).
(2) The platform has a RapidIO IP block (connected to a system bus, e.g.
AXI on ARM). In this case, 'select HAS_RAPIDIO' should be added to the
'config ARCH_*' menu entry for the SoCs that offer the IP block.

Prior to this patchset, different architectures used different criteria:
* powerpc: (1) and (2)
* mips: (1) and (2) after recent commit into next that added (2):

  491ec1553e0075f345fbe476a93775eabcbc40b6
* x86: (1)
* arm,arm64: none (RapidIO menus never offered)

Changelog:
  * Moved Kconfig entry into RapidIO subsystem instead of duplicating

In the current patchset, I took the approach of adding '|| PCI' to the
depends in the subsystem. I did try the alterantive approach mentioned
in the reviews for v1 of this patch, where the subsystem Kconfig does
not add a '|| PCI' and each per-architecture Kconfig has to add a
'select HAS_RAPIDIO if PCI' and SoCs with IP blocks have to also add
'select HAS_RAPIDIO'. This works too but requires each architecture's
Kconfig to add the line for RapidIO (whereas current approach does not
require that involvement) and also may create a false impression that
the dependency on PCI is strict.

We appreciate the suggestion for also selecting the RapdiIO subsystem for
compilation with COMPILE_TEST, but hope to address it in a separate
patchset, localized to the subsystem, since it will need to change
depends on all drivers, not just on the top level, and since this
patch now spans multiple architectures.
