Currently configurations can be generated where IOMMU_SUPPORT is disabled but IOMMU_IOVA is built as a module and DRM_TEGRA as built-in. In such a case, the symbols guarded by IOMMU_IOVA will not be available when linking the Tegra DRM driver and cause a linking failure. Simplify this by unconditionally selecting IOMMU_IOVA, which makes sure that it will be forced to =y if DRM_TEGRA=y. Technically we can now get IOMMU_IOVA code built-in even if we don't use it (Tegra DRM only uses it when IOMMU_SUPPORT is also enabled), but such configuration are of a mostly academic nature. In all practical configurations we want IOMMU support anyway. Signed-off-by: Thierry Reding <treding@nvidia.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
