This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled MIPS: Fix build error when SMP is used without GIC to the linux-4.2.y-queue branch of the 4.2.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/linux.git/log/?h=linux-4.2.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 4.2.8-ckt6. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 4.2.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ---8<------------------------------------------------------------ >From d9df33bdc4ded39e2abcc5bd7c7fe348d8e5b168 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hauke Mehrtens <hauke@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 6 Mar 2016 22:28:56 +0100 Subject: MIPS: Fix build error when SMP is used without GIC commit 7a50e4688dabb8005df39b2b992d76629b8af8aa upstream. The MIPS_GIC_IPI should only be selected when MIPS_GIC is also selected, otherwise it results in a compile error. smp-gic.c uses some functions from include/linux/irqchip/mips-gic.h like plat_ipi_call_int_xlate() which are only added to the header file when MIPS_GIC is set. The Lantiq SoC does not use the GIC, but supports SMP. The calls top the functions from smp-gic.c are already protected by some #ifdefs The first part of this was introduced in commit 72e20142b2bf ("MIPS: Move GIC IPI functions out of smp-cmp.c") Signed-off-by: Hauke Mehrtens <hauke@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Paul Burton <paul.burton@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: linux-mips@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Patchwork: https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/12774/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Kamal Mostafa <kamal@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- arch/mips/Kconfig | 7 ++++--- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/mips/Kconfig b/arch/mips/Kconfig index 199a835..dbf9fa3 100644 --- a/arch/mips/Kconfig +++ b/arch/mips/Kconfig @@ -2117,7 +2117,7 @@ config MIPS_MT_SMP select CPU_MIPSR2_IRQ_VI select CPU_MIPSR2_IRQ_EI select SYNC_R4K - select MIPS_GIC_IPI + select MIPS_GIC_IPI if MIPS_GIC select MIPS_MT select SMP select SMP_UP @@ -2215,7 +2215,7 @@ config MIPS_VPE_APSP_API_MT config MIPS_CMP bool "MIPS CMP framework support (DEPRECATED)" depends on SYS_SUPPORTS_MIPS_CMP - select MIPS_GIC_IPI + select MIPS_GIC_IPI if MIPS_GIC select SMP select SYNC_R4K select SYS_SUPPORTS_SMP @@ -2235,7 +2235,7 @@ config MIPS_CPS select MIPS_CM select MIPS_CPC select MIPS_CPS_PM if HOTPLUG_CPU - select MIPS_GIC_IPI + select MIPS_GIC_IPI if MIPS_GIC select SMP select SYNC_R4K if (CEVT_R4K || CSRC_R4K) select SYS_SUPPORTS_HOTPLUG_CPU @@ -2254,6 +2254,7 @@ config MIPS_CPS_PM bool config MIPS_GIC_IPI + depends on MIPS_GIC bool config MIPS_CM -- 2.7.0
