This change on top of my earlier patch should do what I meant: diff --git a/include/linux/i2c.h b/include/linux/i2c.h index 0236e5f2b5be..536641bad92d 100644 --- a/include/linux/i2c.h +++ b/include/linux/i2c.h @@ -265,15 +265,15 @@ enum i2c_slave_event { extern int i2c_slave_register(struct i2c_client *client, i2c_slave_cb_t slave_cb); extern int i2c_slave_unregister(struct i2c_client *client); +#if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_I2C_SLAVE) static inline int i2c_slave_event(struct i2c_client *client, enum i2c_slave_event event, u8 *val) { -#if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_I2C_SLAVE) return client->slave_cb(client, event, val); +} #else - return 0; +extern int i2c_slave_event(struct i2c_client *client, enum i2c_slave_event event, u8 *val); #endif -} /** * struct i2c_board_info - template for device creation Arnd -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-i2c" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
