Subject: [GIT PULL] mmutable branch between pdx86 amd wbrf branch and wifi / amdgpu due for the v6.8 merge window

Hi Wifi and AMDGPU maintainers,

Here is a pull-request for the platform-drivers-x86 parts of:

https://lore.kernel.org/platform-driver-x86/[email protected]/

From my pov the pdx86 bits are ready and the platform-drivers-x86-amd-wbrf-v6.8-1 tag can be merged by you to merge the wifi-subsys resp. the amdgpu driver changes on top.

This only adds kernel internal API, so if in the future the API needs work that can be done.

I've not merged this branch into pdx86/for-next yet, since I see little use in merging it without any users. I'll merge it once either the wifi or amdgpu changes are also merged
(and if some blocking issues get identified before either are merged I can prepare a new pull-request fixing the issues).

Regards,

Hans

I've been fine with the wifi bits since around v3 of the patchset ;-)

So the idea is that I'll pull this into wireless-next and then apply the
two wireless patches on top, right?

AFAICT, since the other patches don't depend on wireless for
compilation, this is the only thing I need to do, i.e. no need to have
another separate branch to send it further on, right?

The few comments I had for the amdgpu patches were addressed and I
honestly don't have time to take a detailed look at the general framework.

So perfectly fine to merge that stuff from my side. Alex or Mario might
have some additional comments, but I think they will give their go as well.

Christian.

My feedback has been taken into account already, I'm happy with the
series now.

I'm a bit confused how exactly the drm/amd patches get applied though.
Is it like this:
1) immutable branch for platform-x86
2) immutable branch for platform-x86 merged into wlan-next
3) immutable branch for platform-x86 merged into drm-next?
4) wlan-next and drm-next come together for 6.8

Normally stuff from amd-staging-drm-next is put into the drm-next branch
and then merge through the drm.

amd-staging-drm-next tracks a much older tree so I'm thinking merging
the immutable branch for platform-x86 won't work.

Maybe the right answer is that the "immutable branch gets merged into
drm-next" and we just have some cherry-picks for all the commits into
amd-staging-drm-next so we can compile but Alex doesn't put them as part
of the next PR to drm-next. When ASDN rebased to 6.8 or newer they
would drop off.

amd-staging-drm-next is just our development branch, the actual
amdgpu-next branch is:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/agd5f/linux/-/commits/drm-next
I'll merge the platform branch there and then apply the amdgpu patches on top.
For amd-staging-drm-next, we can just apply the whole set since that
branch is just for development so there won't be any conflicts with
upstream.

OK, thanks! I've pulled this into wireless-next, and applied the two
wireless related patches on top.

I guess if AMDGPU does the same, it will combine nicely in 6.8.

Yup, I've pulled the whole series into amd-staging-drm-next for now and
I expect as long as we have no problems with it reported under our
testing Alex or Christian will do the same include drm/amd portions of
it in an upcoming drm-next pull request.

Thanks!

I've pushed out an updated -next branch as well:

I was testing latest wireless-testing with ath11k and noticed this:

[ 370.796884] ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: WBRF is not supported

I think that's just spam and not really necessary. Could someone remove
that or change to a debug message, please?

Do you have dynamic debug turned up perhaps? It's already supposed to
be a dbg message.

+ dev_dbg(dev, "WBRF is %s supported\n",
+ local->wbrf_supported ? "" : "not");

Oh, I should have checked that. I do have it enabled:

CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CORE=y

But that shouldn't enable the debug message unless I specifically enable
it via debugfs, right? But then I noticed this in net/mac80211/Makefile:

ccflags-y += -DDEBUG

I'm guessing this is the reason why the debug message is always printed?

It looks like wbrf.c has the only dev_dbg() call in mac80211, all others
use the macros from net/mac80211/debug.h. I think wbrf.c should also use
one of the macros from debug.h and not dev_dbg().
