The 'imply' statement does not seem to have an effect, as it's
still possible to turn the CMM code into a loadable module
in a randconfig build, leading to a link error:

arm-linux-gnueabi-ld: drivers/gpu/drm/rcar-du/rcar_du_crtc.o: in function `rcar_du_crtc_atomic_enable':
rcar_du_crtc.c:(.text+0xad4): undefined reference to `rcar_lvds_clk_enable'
arm-linux-gnueabi-ld: drivers/gpu/drm/rcar-du/rcar_du_crtc.o: in function `rcar_du_crtc_atomic_disable':
rcar_du_crtc.c:(.text+0xd7c): undefined reference to `rcar_lvds_clk_disable'
arm-linux-gnueabi-ld: drivers/gpu/drm/rcar-du/rcar_du_drv.o: in function `rcar_du_init':
rcar_du_drv.c:(.init.text+0x4): undefined reference to `rcar_du_of_init'
arm-linux-gnueabi-ld: drivers/gpu/drm/rcar-du/rcar_du_encoder.o: in function `rcar_du_encoder_init':

Remove the 'imply', and instead use a silent symbol that defaults
to the correct setting.

Hi Arnd,

Thank you for the patch.

This will result in the CMM always being selected when DU is, increasing
the kernel size even for devices that don't need it. I believe we need a
better construct in Kconfig to fix this.

I had expected this to have the same meaning that we had before the
Kconfig change: whenever the dependencies are available, turn it on,
otherwise leave it disabled.

Can you describe what behavior you actually want instead?

It would be easy enough to make this a visible 'bool' symbol and
build it into the rcu-du-drm.ko module itself. Would that help you?

Doesn't "imply" mean it gets selected by default but can be manually
disabled ?

That could indeed simplify a few things. I wonder if it could introduce
a few small issues though (but likely nothing we can't fix). The two
that come to mind are the fact that the module would have two
MODULE_DESCRIPTION and MODULE_LICENSE entries (I have no idea if that
could cause breakages), and that it could make module unloading more
difficult as the CMM being used by the DU would increase the refcount on
the module. I think the latter could be worked around by manually
unbinding the DU device through sysfs before unloading the module (and I
can't say for sure that unloading the DU module is not broken today
*innocent and naive look* :-)).

That may be what it means now (I still don't understand how it's defined
as of v5.7-rc1), but traditionally it was more like a 'select if all
dependencies
are met'.

In that case, a Makefile trick could also work, doing

ifdef CONFIG_DRM_RCAR_CMM
obj-$(CONFIG_DRM_RCAR_DU) += rcar-cmm.o
endif

Thereby making the cmm module have the same state (y or m) as
the du module whenever the option is enabled.

That's still what it is supposed to mean right now ;-)
Except that now it should correctly handle the modular case, too.

What about dropping the "imply DRM_RCAR_CMM", but defaulting to
enable CMM if DU is enabled?

    config DRM_RCAR_CMM
            tristate "R-Car DU Color Management Module (CMM) Support"
            depends on DRM_RCAR_DU && OF
            default DRM_RCAR_DU

Then there is a bug. If I run 'make menuconfig' now on a mainline kernel
and enable CONFIG_DRM_RCAR_DU, I can set
DRM_RCAR_CMM and DRM_RCAR_LVDS to 'y', 'n' or 'm' regardless
of whether CONFIG_DRM_RCAR_DU is 'm' or 'y'. The 'implies'
statement seems to be ignored entirely, except as reverse 'default'
setting.

That doesn't work because it allows DRM_RCAR_DU=y with
DRM_RCAR_CMM=m, which causes a link failure.

Here is another version that should do what we want and is only
half-ugly. I can send that as a proper patch if it passes my testing
and nobody hates it too much.

This may be a stupid question, but doesn't this really call for fixing
Kconfig ? This seems to be such a common pattern that requiring
constructs similar to the ones below will be a never-ending chase of
offenders.

Maybe, I suppose the hardest part here would be to come up with
an appropriate name for the keyword ;-)

Any suggestions?

This specific issue is fairly rare though, in most cases the dependencies
are in the right order so a Kconfig symbol 'depends on' a second one
when the corresponding loadable module uses symbols from that second
module. The problem here is that the two are mixed up.

The much more common problem is the one where one needs to
wrong

config FOO
       depends on BAR || !BAR

To ensure the dependency is either met or BAR is disabled, but
not FOO=y with BAR=m. If you have any suggestions for a keyword
for that thing, we can clean up hundreds of such instances.

Some ideas:

config FOO
    can use  BAR
    maybe BAR
    optional BAR

We should probably double-check that this is only ever used for when
both FOO and BAR are tri-state, since without that it doesn't make
much sense.

Would it make sense to fix the imply semantics ? Or are they use cases
for the current behaviour of imply ? "recommend" could be another
keyword. I think we should try to limit the number of keywords though,
as it would otherwise become quite messy.

Another idea,

	depends optionally on BAR
