Subject: [PATCH] pinctrl: avoid duplicate function definitions
Date: Wed, 20 May 2026 09:51:14 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260520075125.1514312-1-arnd@kernel.org> (raw)
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
The pinctrl_generic_to_map() and pinctrl_generic_pins_function_dt_node_to_map()
functions are built whenever CONFIG_GENERIC_PINCTRL is enabled, including
configurations without CONFIG_OF.
When CONFIG_OF is disabled, the dummy definitions are also present in the header,
which causes the build to fail:
drivers/pinctrl/pinctrl-generic.c:20:5: error: conflicting types for 'pinctrl_generic_to_map'; have 'int(struct pinctrl_dev *, struct device_node *, struct device_node *, struct pinctrl_map **, unsigned int *, unsigned int *, const char **, unsigned int, const char **, unsigned int *, unsigned int)'
20 | int pinctrl_generic_to_map(struct pinctrl_dev *pctldev, struct device_node *parent,
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In file included from drivers/pinctrl/pinctrl-generic.c:16:
drivers/pinctrl/pinconf.h:193:1: note: previous definition of 'pinctrl_generic_to_map' with type 'int(struct pinctrl_dev *, struct device_node *, struct device_node *, struct pinctrl_map **, unsigned int *, unsigned int *, const char **, unsigned int, const char **, unsigned int *, void *)'

drivers/pinctrl/pinconf.h:184:1: note: previous definition of 'pinctrl_generic_pins_function_dt_node_to_map' with type 'int(struct pinctrl_dev *, struct device_node *, struct pinctrl_map **, unsigned int *)'
184 | pinctrl_generic_pins_function_dt_node_to_map(struct pinctrl_dev *pctldev,
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Removing either set of definitions is sufficient to avoid the problem.
Remove the copy from the header for simplicity.

Fixes: 43722575e5cd ("pinctrl: add generic functions + pins mapper")
