imx390 and ti960 drivers fail to build on iotg_ipu6 branch #224
Description
I'd like to build the IMX390 and TI960 drivers. These are not supported in master branch. They are supported in iotg_ipu6 branch which seems to be maintained by @zouxiaoh
The instructions to build in-tree produce a kernel build which does not include imx390.ko or ti960.ko. And there are no instructions on how to enable these drivers. The C files exist (imx390.c, ti960.c), but they are not referenced by any Makefiles or Kconfig. If I use instructions from the tgl_manchester branch, the build fails.
It looks like kernel API changes have broken these drivers which have not been updated in a long time. Are they maintained?
What I've tried:
- Created a VM to perform the build using Intel's IoT flavor of Ubuntu 22.04 Desktop (Jammy) where
uname -rreturns5.15.0-1055-intel-iotg. - Read the Getting Started Guides for Alder, Raptor, and Meteor Lake to understand the BKC kernel code. The build procedure differs per processor, but the basic process for all is to check out Intel's linux-kernel-overlay project, switch to a specific branch, and then run the build script. I've tried three branches which all build successfully:
- lts2021-ubuntu (kernel 5.15.137 per Alder Lake Getting Started Guide)
- lts-overlay-v6.1.65-ubuntu-240109T054526Z (kernel 6.1.65 per Raptor Lake GSG)
- mainline-tracking-overlay-v6.5-ubuntu-240122T064042Z (kernel 6.5 per Meteor Lake GSG).
- After building the base kernel, step 2 is to copy the ipu6-drivers code into the kernel tree and rebuild. This also works.
- However, trying to enable imx390 and ti960 drivers results in a failed build.
