| Subject | [PATCH 4/9] MIPS: MT: Remove "weak" from vpe_run() declaration |
| Message-ID | <pLyHn-5YP-9@gated-at.bofh.it> |
Weak header file declarations are error-prone because they make every
definition weak, and the linker chooses one based on link order (see
10629d711ed7 ("PCI: Remove __weak annotation from pcibios_get_phb_of_node
decl")).
That's not a problem for vpe_run() because Kconfig ensures there's never
more than one definition:
- vpe_run() is defined in arch/mips/kernel/vpe-mt.c if
CONFIG_MIPS_VPE_LOADER_MT=y
- vpe_run() is defined in arch/mips/mti-malta/malta-amon.c if
CONFIG_MIPS_CMP=y
- CONFIG_MIPS_VPE_LOADER_MT cannot be set if CONFIG_MIPS_CMP=y
But it's simpler to verify correctness if we remove "weak" from the picture
and test the config symbols directly.
Remove "weak" from the vpe_run() declaration and use #if to test whether a
definition should be present.

That should be CONFIG_MIPS_VPE_LOADER_CMP, in which case the error case
in the #else bit is always dead code. This file is built only if
CONFIG_MIPS_VPE_LOADER, and the other ones are defined without prompts:
config MIPS_VPE_LOADER_CMP
bool
default "y"
depends on MIPS_VPE_LOADER && MIPS_CMP
config MIPS_VPE_LOADER_MT
bool
default "y"
depends on MIPS_VPE_LOADER && !MIPS_CMP
I.e. one xor the other must be "y" when MIPS_VPE_LOADER=y.
Maybe its worth just removing the weak and the vpe_run check?
Cheers
