powerpc allmodconfig build on the latest upstream kernel results in:
ERROR: ".cpu_to_chip_id" [drivers/block/mtip32xx/mtip32xx.ko] undefined!
This is due to commit 15863ff3b (powerpc: Make chip-id information available to userspace).
Not surprising, as cpu_to_chip_id() is not exported.
(to be honest, I am not familiar with the ppc architecture)
Commit message of 15863ff3b has the following text.
******************
So far "/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/physical_package_id"
was always default (-1) on ppc64 architecture.
Now, some systems have an ibm,chip-id property in the cpu nodes in
the device tree. On these systems, we now use this information to
display physical_package_id
******************
Shouldn't the new definition of "topology_physical_package_id" apply only to those systems supporting ibm,chip-id property?
Reverting this commit fixes the problem. Any good idea how to fix it for real ?
