Hello!
I get the following allmodconfig build error on x86 in next-20240523:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "drivers/gpu/drm/msm/registers/gen_header.py", line 970, in <module>
main()
File "drivers/gpu/drm/msm/registers/gen_header.py", line 951, in main
parser.add_argument('--validate', action=argparse.BooleanOptionalAction)
AttributeError: module 'argparse' has no attribute 'BooleanOptionalAction'
The following patch allows the build to complete successfully:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/dri-devel/patch/20240508091751.336654-1-jonathanh@xxxxxxxxxx/#25842751
As to whether this is a proper fix, I must defer to the DRM folks on CC.
Thanx, Paul
