  With CONFIG_ACPI enabled for RISC-V, this driver gets enabled
in allmodconfig build. However, RISC-V doesn't support sub-word
atomics which is used by this driver. Due to this, the build fails
with below error.

So, disable this driver for RISC-V even when ACPI is enabled for now.

Why not? Compilers and libatomic do, so surely the Linux kernel should
too.

If you insist on doing this, at least make it some new config variable
that’s self-documenting and means this automatically gets re-enabled
when arch/riscv fixes this deficiency? Hard-coding arch lists like this
seems like a terrible anti-pattern.

CONFIG_SURFACE_PLATFORMS should be enabled for ARM64 || X86 || COMPILE_TEST only,
so I guess the issue only happens when compiling with the latter enabled?

I'm not aware of any current plans of MS to release RISC-V-based Surface
devices, so you could maybe also just explicitly disable CONFIG_SURFACE_PLATFORMS.
In any case, I don't see any issues with disabling the whole platform/surface
or only individual drivers for RISC-V, so for either solution:

Hi Maximilian,

Thanks!. Yes, COMPILE_TEST gets enabled for allmodconfig builds. Since
the whole intention of COMPILE_TEST appears to be able to compile-test
drivers on a platform than they are supposed to be used, I think it is
better not to skip whole set of drivers but only that which can not build.
So, I prefer to keep this change as is.

Thanks,
Sunil

I think you are probably right. But I don't want to combine that
activity with this series. IMO, that should be separate activity.

I understand your point. But given that this is currently only issue with
a single driver from Microsoft and that too only in COMPILE_TEST builds,
I think introducing a new config variable is overkill. If we support
sub-word atomics in kernel, the option may not be useful much anyway.

There are patterns to disable an architecture for COMPILE_TEST builds.

Thanks,

Hi Sunil,

What I wanted to say with my previous mail: I'm fairly confident that
platform/surface drivers will not be actively used on RISC-V hardware any
time soon (not sure if that came over in this way). But whatever you/others
prefer, I'm happy with either.

Best regards,
Max
