[PATCH 0/2] tty: serial: 8250: Rework HP300 serial Kconfig logic
Posted by Geert Uytterhoeven 3 weeks, 3 days ago
	Hi all,

The HP300 serial driver has a long-standing configuration issue: when
SERIAL_8250 and HP300 are enabled, but none of HPDCA and HPAPCI is
built-in:

    drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_hp300.c:24:2: warning: #warning CONFIG_SERIAL_8250 defined but neither CONFIG_HPDCA nor CONFIG_HPAPCI defined, are you sure? [-Wcpp]
       24 | #warning CONFIG_SERIAL_8250 defined but neither CONFIG_HPDCA nor CONFIG_HPAPCI defined, are you sure?
	  |  ^~~~~~~

This series fixes this by reworking the Kconfig logic to make invalid
configurations impossible, after moving the HP300 serial suboptions to
where they really belong.  It is meant as a replacement for "[PATCH]
m68k: make HPDCA and HPAPCI bools" [1], and was compile-tested only.

Anyone who can test this one real hardware?
Probably we should add the following to hp300_defconfig:

    +CONFIG_SERIAL_8250=y
    +# CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_DEPRECATED_OPTIONS is not set
    +# CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_16550A_VARIANTS is not set
    +CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_CONSOLE=y
    +CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_HPDCA=y
    +CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_HPAPCI=y

Thanks for your comments!

Scrap it, this doesn't work for the modular case, due to the #ifdefs
in the driver, which should be converted to #if IS_REACHABLE()...

Sorry for the noise...
