I just > want this thing. Because enabling IOMMU can have other side-effects on the system and as a user you want to be aware that it is enabled. A user not wanting the iommu driver can just disable it then without the need to de-select all drivers depending on it first.

My concern is > that most OMAP3 ISP users won't know that IOMMU supports is required. Feel > free to ignore it though :-) I agree with Laurent. As a user, why should I care about IOMMU? I just want this thing. That's why DRM_RADEON_KMS selects BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE; it's an implementation detail that the user should not need to care about. Why should I need to go see the dependencies of DRM_RADEON_KMS and manually select all of them? I shouldn't, that's the reason 'select' exists in the first place.

Using 'depends on' rather then 'selects' is common standard in Kconfig. You can't select PCI drivers without selecting PCI first, for example. Further selecting whole drivers implicitly isn't a good idea. This can grow out of control very quickly.

What about making VIDEO_OMAP3 select IOMMU_SUPPORT instead then ? Your patch would make the OMAP3 ISP driver disappear from the menu until IOMMU_SUPPORT gets turned on, which can confuse users. > Cc: Ohad Ben-Cohen > Cc: io...@lists.linux-foundation.org > Cc: linux-ker...@vger.kernel.org > Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel > --- > drivers/iommu/Kconfig |4 ++-- > drivers/media/video/Kconfig |3 +-- > 2 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/iommu/Kconfig b/drivers/iommu/Kconfig > index d901930..ae46776 100644 > --- a/drivers/iommu/Kconfig > +++ b/drivers/iommu/Kconfig > @@ -114,8 +114,8 @@ config OMAP_IOMMU > select IOMMU_API > > config OMAP_IOVMM > - tristate > - select OMAP_IOMMU > + tristate "OMAP IO Virtual Memory Manager Support" > + depends on OMAP_IOMMU > > config OMAP_IOMMU_DEBUG > tristate "Export OMAP IOMMU/IOVMM internals in DebugFS" > diff --git a/drivers/media/video/Kconfig b/drivers/media/video/Kconfig > index 6a25fad..6201069 100644 > --- a/drivers/media/video/Kconfig > +++ b/drivers/media/video/Kconfig > @@ -763,8 +763,7 @@ source "drivers/media/video/m5mols/Kconfig" > > config VIDEO_OMAP3 > tristate "OMAP 3 Camera support (EXPERIMENTAL)" > - select OMAP_IOVMM > - depends on VIDEO_V4L2 && I2C && VIDEO_V4L2_SUBDEV_API && ARCH_OMAP3 && > EXPERIMENTAL > + depends on OMAP_IOVMM && VIDEO_V4L2 && I2C && VIDEO_V4L2_SUBDEV_API && > ARCH_OMAP3 && EXPERIMENTAL > ---help--- > Driver for an OMAP 3 camera controller. -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

This doesn't work on platforms that may have more than one possible iommu driver, like x86 for example.

I'm ok with this but wouldn't it be simpler if we drop IOMMU_SUPPORT altogether (and just use a plain menu instead) ? Users will then be presented with only a single iommu-related question: whether they want their iommu driver built or not.
