We introduce a new HAS_IOPORT Kconfig option to indicate support for I/O Port access. In a future patch HAS_IOPORT=n will disable compilation of the I/O accessor functions inb()/outb() and friends on architectures which can not meaningfully support legacy I/O spaces such as s390. The following architectures do not select HAS_IOPORT: * ARC * C-SKY * Hexagon * Nios II * OpenRISC * s390 * User-Mode Linux * Xtensa All other architectures select HAS_IOPORT at least conditionally. The "depends on" relations on HAS_IOPORT in drivers as well as ifdefs for HAS_IOPORT specific sections will be added in subsequent patches on a per subsystem basis.

This patch introduces the HAS_IOPORT config option while the rest of the series adds driver dependencies and the final patch removes inb() / outb() and friends on platforms that don't support them. Thus each of the per-subsystem patches is independent from each other but depends on this patch while the final patch depends on the whole series. Thus splitting this initial patch off allows the per-subsytem HAS_IOPORT dependency addition be merged separately via different trees without breaking the build. [0] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230314121216.413434-1-schnelle@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/ Changes since v3: - List archs without HAS_IOPORT in commit message (Arnd) - Select HAS_IOPORT for LoongArch (Arnd) - Use "select HAS_IOPORT if (E)ISA || .." instead of a "depends on" for (E)ISA for m68k and parisc - Select HAS_IOPORT with config GSC on parisc (Arnd) - Drop "depends on HAS_IOPORT" for um's config ISA (Johannes) - Drop "depends on HAS_IOPORT" for config ISA on x86 and parisc where it is always selected (Arnd)
Gentle ping. As far as I can tell this hasn't been picked to any tree sp far but also hasn't seen complains so I'm wondering if I should send a new version of the combined series of this patch plus the added HAS_IOPORT dependencies per subsystem or wait until this is picked up. Thanks, Niklas
