The implementations are in mapping.c which requires HAS_DMA so stub them
out if not present. This is required for some drivers to pass randconfig
builds.

The issue with HAS_DMA is that essentially all platforms have and rely on DMA. This ends up just being painful noise from the buildbots when they do randconfigs rather than something useful.

If it can work without DMA, you can use IS_ENABLED.

If it can work without DMA, you can use IS_ENABLED. Right, so you just end up with essentially every driver that isn't already tied to a platform that needs DMA needing to add the dependency which nobody is going to notice without doing build testing for randconfigs or similar non-useful configs - it's not a productive use of time.

The change introduces consistency with the existing declarations in dma-mapping.h. Surely there is value in consistency and it doesn't do any harm to define new ones with stubs the same as the other ones. That way when you change an existing device that has DMA stuff to use a new part of the API you don't have to predict that it will behave differently to another part of the API. I suppose it is possible to #ifdef out the DMA stuff in this driver, but IMO it would be quite messy, and I don't think randomly not stubbing out some functions is the right way to move towards fixing all the dependencies in all drivers. We should continue with the stubs for now and fix whole drivers one by one as a proper effort. Thanks James

Presumably we can't just add a depends into the kconfig for all devices because they might not be using DMA.

Yes, looks like it is one of those rare devices supporting a DMA and non-DMA mode. But everything seems nicely guarded off using "dspi->devtype_data->trans_mode == DSPI_DMA_MODE" checks there. So wrap them into a little helper using IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_HAS_DMA) and everything should be sorted out.

But separately to that, I still think making the stubs consistent would save people a lot of time diagnosing build failures if they switch existing code to any of those 3 functions. Principle of Least Astonishment and all that.

Principle of Least > Astonishment and all that. As far as I can tell, the difference here is that the dma_alloc_coherent()/dma_free_coherent() calls all get stubbed out, so the 827 drivers using those can all build cleanly on mk68knommu, shnommu and UML, while dma_alloc_noncoherent()/ dma_free_noncoherent() are only used on 15 files that are all guarded by some other Kconfig dependency at the moment and won't build on the those platforms. I agree that it would be best to treat the coherent/noncoherent cases the same, and I also think the existing stubs are a bit silly, but just removing them would likely require fixing hundreds of drivers with added Kconfig or IS_ENABLED() checks. Maybe we can actually remove CONFIG_NO_DMA/CONFIG_HAS_DMA entirely and remove all the checks for CONFIG_HAS_DMA? My guess is that this would only lead to a small code size increase on the affected targets, but since they are not actually trying to do DMA, and they all have a very limited set of drivers they actually use, it won't break existing code.

Yes, dma_alloc_coherent is from a time where stubbing out was still very common. > I agree that it would be best to treat the coherent/noncoherent > cases the same, and I also think the existing stubs are a bit > silly, but just removing them would likely require fixing > hundreds of drivers with added Kconfig or IS_ENABLED() checks. I doubt it's that many, as most drivers and even subsystems simply depend on DMA. There's probably at most a few dozen drivers supporting DMA but not requiring it. > Maybe we can actually remove CONFIG_NO_DMA/CONFIG_HAS_DMA > entirely and remove all the checks for CONFIG_HAS_DMA? > My guess is that this would only lead to a small code size > increase on the affected targets, but since they are not > actually trying to do DMA, and they all have a very limited > set of drivers they actually use, it won't break existing > code. Except for uml, the CONFIG_NO_DMA configs are usually very resource constraint, so I don't think that's a good idea.

I checked again, and the actual number is 263 modules for a j2 allmodconfig with the DMA stubs removed, see https://pastebin.com/raw/4PFcEe04 This is helped a lot by PCI being unavailable on all four targets without DMA. If I force-enable PCI, I see 610 modules in allmodconfig that link to one of the dma-mapping helper functions but are missing a dependency on CONFIG_HAS_DMA. >> Maybe we can actually remove CONFIG_NO_DMA/CONFIG_HAS_DMA >> entirely and remove all the checks for CONFIG_HAS_DMA? >> My guess is that this would only lead to a small code size >> increase on the affected targets, but since they are not >> actually trying to do DMA, and they all have a very limited >> set of drivers they actually use, it won't break existing >> code. > > Except for uml, the CONFIG_NO_DMA configs are usually very resource > constraint, so I don't think that's a good idea. The J2 Turtleboard has 256MB of RAM, which is not too constrained either. Between SH72xx/SH76xx, SUN3 and M68328, I believe the supported machines are all limited to between 1MB and 32MB in the maximum configuration, which is obviously extremely tight. On the other hand, I really don't think anyone cares any more: all three platforms are between 25 and 40 years old, kernel support is very minimal and nobody has really spent time improving them in at least 15 years. It also appears that all three do support DMA in some form, so if anyone was serious about using them, they would probably want to use the dma-mapping interface for it as well, like we do for similarly constrained nommu platforms (coldfire, cortex-m3, xtensa) Arnd

Somehow I doubt that system (with 16MB ram I think it was) would even fit a v6.x kernel. v3.6 was already challenging. Even back then Greg was incredulous that an embedded system would run a 6 year newer kernel. Here we are contemplating a 20 year newer kernel? I think you have the right direction, we just removed !SMP support, removing !DMA also seems logical to me. Jason

It might be better to add a tag but it was changed 5 years ago and nobody hit it until now so I'm not sure. > Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com> > Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/oe-kbuild-all/202506160036.t9VDxF6p-lkp@intel.com/ > Signed-off-by: James Clark <james.clark@linaro.org> > --- > include/linux/dma-mapping.h | 28 +++++++++++++++++++++------- > 1 file changed, 21 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/include/linux/dma-mapping.h b/include/linux/dma-mapping.h > index 55c03e5fe8cb..766f28a0e11f 100644 > --- a/include/linux/dma-mapping.h > +++ b/include/linux/dma-mapping.h > @@ -161,6 +161,12 @@ void *dma_vmap_noncontiguous(struct device *dev, size_t size, > void dma_vunmap_noncontiguous(struct device *dev, void *vaddr); > int dma_mmap_noncontiguous(struct device *dev, struct vm_area_struct *vma, > size_t size, struct sg_table *sgt); > +struct page *dma_alloc_pages(struct device *dev, size_t size, > + dma_addr_t *dma_handle, enum dma_data_direction dir, gfp_t gfp); > +void dma_free_pages(struct device *dev, size_t size, struct page *page, > + dma_addr_t dma_handle, enum dma_data_direction dir); > +int dma_mmap_pages(struct device *dev, struct vm_area_struct *vma, > + size_t size, struct page *page); > #else /* CONFIG_HAS_DMA */ > static inline dma_addr_t dma_map_page_attrs(struct device *dev, > struct page *page, size_t offset, size_t size, > @@ -291,6 +297,21 @@ static inline int dma_mmap_noncontiguous(struct device *dev, > { > return -EINVAL; > } > +static inline struct page *dma_alloc_pages(struct device *dev, size_t size, > + dma_addr_t *dma_handle, enum dma_data_direction dir, gfp_t gfp) > +{ > + return NULL; > +} > +static inline void dma_free_pages(struct device *dev, size_t size, > + struct page *page, dma_addr_t dma_handle, > + enum dma_data_direction dir) > +{ > +} > +static inline int dma_mmap_pages(struct device *dev, struct vm_area_struct *vma, > + size_t size, struct page *page) > +{ > + return -EINVAL; > +} > #endif /* CONFIG_HAS_DMA */ > > #ifdef CONFIG_IOMMU_DMA > @@ -438,13 +459,6 @@ static inline bool dma_need_unmap(struct device *dev) > } > #endif /* !CONFIG_HAS_DMA || !CONFIG_DMA_NEED_SYNC */ > > -struct page *dma_alloc_pages(struct device *dev, size_t size, > - dma_addr_t *dma_handle, enum dma_data_direction dir, gfp_t gfp); > -void dma_free_pages(struct device *dev, size_t size, struct page *page, > - dma_addr_t dma_handle, enum dma_data_direction dir); > -int dma_mmap_pages(struct device *dev, struct vm_area_struct *vma, > - size_t size, struct page *page); > - > static inline void *dma_alloc_noncoherent(struct device *dev, size_t size, > dma_addr_t *dma_handle, enum dma_data_direction dir, gfp_t gfp) > {
