[PATCH] dma-buf: move system_cc_shared heap under separate Kconfig

From: Sumit Semwal

Date: Wed Jun 10 2026 - 10:32:24 EST


From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>

While system heap and system_cc_shared heap share a lot of code
and hence the same source file, their users have different needs.

system heap users need it to be a loadable module, while
system_cc_shared heap users don't.

Building as a loadable module breaks system_cc_shared heap on
powerpc and s390 due to un-exported set_memory_encrypted /
set_memory_decrypted functions.

Fix these by reorganising code to put the system_cc_shared heap
under a new Kconfig symbol, which allows either building both
into the kernel, or leave encryption up to the consumers of the
system heap.

Fixes: fd55edff8a0a ("dma-buf: heaps: system: Turn the heap into a module")
