It looks like that some efi stuff overloads u-boot functions, in this case newly added flush() function.
Any idea how to handle this issue?
I think you should rename the EFI flush() function to something like efi_flush().
Ok! I renamed EFI flush() function to efi_flush().
I put all patches into github pull request which started CI test: https://github.com/u-boot/u-boot/pull/241
When merging, please, use [PATCH 1/1] efi_selftest: prefix test functions with efi_st_ https://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2022-September/495334.html
Hello! I updated https://github.com/u-boot/u-boot/pull/241 pull request for CI test. I added there above efi_selftest patch and after that CI test passed.
So Tom, is this enough for you? Or do you need something more?
Were you also going to rename flush as suggested?
