RE: [PATCH] [POWERPC] Add the PC speaker only when requested so
Hello Grant,
You can reproduce this by adding initcall_debug to your kernel
parameters. I'm encountering this situation on an MPC85xx board, but
from looking at the code that seems irrelevant as add_pcspkr() will get
executed anyway. True, pnpPNP,100 is looked after before the platform
code runs and it will fail if it can't find pnpPNP,100, but the error
message will show up. As mentioned below, this saves some memory and a
few boot-up CPU cycles...
PCSPKR_PLATFORM is an option in init/Kconfig:
...
config PCSPKR_PLATFORM
bool Enable PC-Speaker support if EMBEDDED
depends on ALPHA || X86 || MIPS || PPC_PREP || PPC_CHRP ||
PPC_PSERIES
default y
help
This option allows to disable the internal PC-Speaker
support, saving some memory.
...
Cheers,
Emil.

What situation are you hitting this in? The code should only run if
there is a pnpPNP,100 compatible node in the device tree.
Also, where is CONFIG_PCSPKR_PLATFORM defined? I don't see it
anywhere in powerpc code and only a reference to it in an x86
Makefile. As it stands, it looks like this patch unconditionally
disables the pcspkr code.

But now that I dig into the code I see that the calling...initcall returned... messages are just debug stuff that isn't always turned on. I have no problem with the patch.
