Re: [U-Boot] [PATCH 01/15] fdt: Use sed instead of cpp to pre-process the dtc

Include file support in dtc is still not available in common distributions so we need to keep our preprocessing arrangement around for a little longer.

But # is commonly used in FDT files, so use sed instead of cpp for this preprocessing.

This sounds like the wrong approach to me. I'd suggest using what I proposed for the kernel:

cmd_dtc_cpp = $(CPP) $(cpp_flags) -D__DTS__ -x assembler-with-cpp -o $(dtc-tmp) $< ; \ $(objtree)/scripts/dtc/dtc -O dtb -o $@ -b 0 $(DTC_FLAGS) $(dtc-tmp)

The "-x assembler-with-cpp" is what solves the # problem IIRC.
