That might make sense, since the runtime warning is only triggered when the lack of PAT actually makes a difference. OTOH the people running the kernel aren't always the same people building it, so the downside is that this would potentially delay getting X86_PAT enabled. > In this version, I'm making the warning conditional on CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST, > which > shuts it up for me, but not people that may actually want to run the kernel > as a compromize. This is fine with me as well. Whichever way we end up going for this, it should be applied to the radeon driver as well. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | http://www.amd.com Libre software enthusiast | Mesa and X developer ___ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
[PATCH] drm/amdgpu: shut up #warning for compile testing
My randconfig tests on linux-next showed a newly introduced warning: drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_object.c: In function 'amdgpu_bo_create_restricted': drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_object.c:377:2: error: #warning Please enable CONFIG_MTRR and CONFIG_X86_PAT for better performance thanks to write-combining [-Werror=cpp] Generally speaking, warnings about bad kernel configuration are not particularly helpful. We could enforce the selection of X86_PAT through Kconfig, so the driver cannot even be used unless it is enabled, or we could just rely on the runtime warning that is also there. In this version, I'm making the warning conditional on CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST, which shuts it up for me, but not people that may actually want to run the kernel as a compromize.
