I want #ifdef in the header too, like mine http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/566812/
I am not keen on that idea since it clutters up header files and we'll get a link error anyway if something is missing. Anyway, I've added it.
I am afraid there is misunderstanding here.
Please see my patch carefully.
What I mean is like this:
#if ... declaration of function prototype #else static inline empty function #endif
This is a common technique to avoid a link error.
Do you think this function will be called when device tree is not enabled? I cannot see how it would have any meaning in that case. What is the purpose?
In order to avoid build errors.
I think this coding style is often used.
For example, you can see include/linux/clk.h in Linux.
#if defined(CONFIG_OF) && defined(CONFIG_COMMON_CLK) struct clk *of_clk_get(struct device_node *np, int index); struct clk *of_clk_get_by_name(struct device_node *np, const char *name); struct clk *of_clk_get_from_provider(struct of_phandle_args *clkspec); #else static inline struct clk *of_clk_get(struct device_node *np, int index) { return ERR_PTR(-ENOENT); } static inline struct clk *of_clk_get_by_name(struct device_node *np, const char *name) { return ERR_PTR(-ENOENT); } #endif
If every driver entry in Kconfig specifies "depends on OF_CONTROL" correctly, no link error would happen for this.
So, I leave this decision to you. If you do not like #ifdef in header files, just rip it off.
