[PATCH v2] parport_pc: Also enable driver for PCI systems

From: Maciej W. Rozycki
Date: Mon Feb 14 2022 - 15:53:42 EST


Nowadays PC-style parallel ports come in the form of PCI and PCIe option
cards and there are some combined parallel/serial option cards as well
that we handle in the parport subsystem. There is nothing in particular
that would prevent them from being used in any system equipped with PCI
or PCIe connectivity, except that we do not permit the PARPORT_PC config
option to be selected for platforms for which ARCH_MIGHT_HAVE_PC_PARPORT
has not been set for.

The only PCI platforms that actually can't make use of PC-style parallel
port hardware are those newer PCIe systems that have no support for I/O
cycles in the host bridge, required by such parallel ports. Notably,
this includes the s390 arch, which has port I/O accessors that cause
compilation warnings (promoted to errors with `-Werror'), and there are
other cases such as the POWER9 PHB4 device, though this one has variable
port I/O accessors that depend on the particular system. Also it is not
clear whether the serial port side of devices enabled by PARPORT_SERIAL
uses port I/O or MMIO. Finally Super I/O solutions are always either
ISA or platform devices.

Make the PARPORT_PC option selectable also for PCI systems then, except
for the s390 arch, however limit the availability of PARPORT_PC_SUPERIO
to platforms that enable ARCH_MIGHT_HAVE_PC_PARPORT. Update platforms
accordingly for the required <asm/parport.h> header.

Hi,

I have verified this lightly by booting a kernel with PARPORT_PC and
PARPORT_SERIAL enabled on a RISC-V HiFive Unmatched system. While I do
have a PCIe parallel port option available that I could use with my RISC-V
machine (based on the OxSemi OXPCIe952 chip) it is currently plugged in
the wrong system, and both machines are in my remote lab I have currently
no visit scheduled to in the near future. For the record the device
reports as:

PCI parallel port detected: 1415:c118, I/O at 0x1000(0x1008), IRQ 18
parport1: PC-style at 0x1000 (0x1008), irq 18, using FIFO [PCSPP,TRISTATE,COMPAT,EPP,ECP]

in the other system. I'll see if I can verify it with the Unmatched at
the next opportunity, though it seems like an overkill to me given that a
PC-style parallel port is a generic PCIe device. The OXPCIe952 implements
a multifunction device, so it doesn't rely on PARPORT_SERIAL.

NB platforms to be updated for <asm/parport.h> generation were chosen by
the presence of the HAVE_PCI or FORCE_PCI option from ones that do not
already have or generate that header, except for s390, now excluded. Let
me know if I got anything wrong here.

Maciej

Changes from v1:

- Exclude s390 systems, update the change description accordingly.
