If IOMMU_SUPPORT is not set, ipu3 driver may select IOMMU_IOVA to m.
But for many drivers, they use "select IOMMU_IOVA if IOMMU_SUPPORT"
in the Kconfig, for example, CONFIG_TEGRA_VDE is set to y but IOMMU_IOVA
is m, then the building fails like this:

drivers/staging/media/tegra-vde/iommu.o: In function `tegra_vde_iommu_map':
iommu.c:(.text+0x41): undefined reference to `alloc_iova'
iommu.c:(.text+0x56): undefined reference to `__free_iova'

This doesn't seem right: the ipu3-cio2 driver needs IOMMU_IOVA
independently of IOMMU_SUPPORT.

Looking at tegra-vde, it seems to depend on IOMMU_SUPPORT but that's not
declared in its Kconfig entry. I wonder if adding that would be the right
way to fix this.

Cc'ing the IOMMU list.
IOMMU_SUPPORT is optional for the Tegra-VDE driver.

Right, I also had the impression that we'd made the IOVA library completely standalone. And what does the IPU3 driver's Kconfig have to do with some *other* driver failing to link anyway?

I can see it failing if IPU3 is compiled as a loadable module, while
Tegra-VDE is a built-in driver. Hence IOVA lib should be also a kernel
module and thus the IOVA symbols will be missing during of linkage of
the VDE driver.

Oh, I misunderstand that IOMMU_IOVA is depend on IOMMU_SUPPORT, thank you for clarification.

I will try to fix this in tegra-vde.

Probably IOVA could be selected independently of IOMMU_SUPPORT, but IOVA
library isn't needed for the VDE driver if IOMMU_SUPPORT is disabled.

Oh, I think I get the problem now - tegra-vde/iommu.c is built unconditionally and relies on the static inline stubs for IOMMU and IOVA calls if !IOMMU_SUPPORT, but in a compile-test config where IOVA=m for other reasons, it then picks up the real declarations from linux/iova.h instead of the stubs, and things go downhill from there. So there is a real issue, but indeed it's Tegra-VDE which needs to be restructured to cope with such configurations, and not IPU3's (or anyone else who may select IOVA=m in future) job to work around it.

Robin.
