[PATCH v2] staging: fbtft: Disable DMA support if DMA is not available

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If NO_DMA=y:

    drivers/built-in.o: In function `fbtft_framebuffer_alloc':
    (.text+0xb53cae): undefined reference to `dmam_alloc_coherent'

As DMA support is already optional, make it depend on HAS_DMA.

If !HAS_DMA, "dma" will always be false, and the compiler will optimize
away the call to dmam_alloc_coherent().

v2:
  - Explain better how it works,
  - Keep the "= false" to avoid breakage (seen not only with gcc 4.1.2,
    but also with 4.6.3 and 4.9.0).
