[PATCH v3 5/5] arm/dom0less: introduce Kconfig for dom0less feature
Posted by Luca Fancellu 10 months, 2 weeks ago
Introduce a Kconfig for the dom0less feature, enabled by default,
to be able to choose if the feature should be compiled or not.

Provide static inline stubs when the option is disabled for the
functions externally visible.

Use the new Kconfig to remove dom0less DT binding from the efi-boot.h
code when the Kconfig is not enabled, do the same for
allocate_bank_memory inside domain_build.c that currently is used
only by dom0less-build.c module, but it's kept there provisioning
its usage by dom0 code.

Signed-off-by: Luca Fancellu <luca.fancellu@arm.com>
---
Changes from v2:
 - protect allocate_bank_memory with the new Kconfig

You're in the Arm Kconfig, so there should be no need for this dependency (it is implicit).

Apart from that, we have 2 features: static mem and static shmem that are only meant for dom0less domUs.
Shouldn't we make them dependent on DOM0LESS_BOOT? Otherwise, what is the purpose of selecting them
with DOM0LESS_BOOT=n?

Sure, I’ll add the dependencies and remove the ARM one

no need for ARM. DOM0LESS_BOOT already depends on ARM.
