Hi Tim,
there is a weird side effect with this patch, breaking m68k architecture. For some reason, image.c is not compiled clean because gd is not declared anymore.
In file included from tools/common/image.c:1: ./tools/../common/image.c: In function ‘get_table_entry_id’: ./tools/../common/image.c:982:41: error: ‘gd’ undeclared (first use in this function) 982 | if (t->sname && strcasecmp(t->sname + gd->reloc_off, name) == 0) | ^~ ./tools/../common/image.c:982:41: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each functi
Can you take a look ? Thanks !
Stefano,
I have no idea what could cause this... must be something to do with including kconfig.h?
What board/target would I build to reproduce this?
Frieder, do you have any ideas?
I can't remember if I did a full test on all platforms when I wrote this patch. Probably not.
And I have no idea what is causing this, nor do I currently have the time to have a closer look, sorry.
BTW, this is a very good example for what I said earlier:
"I failed to do upstreaming work for U-Boot for quite some time. Mainly because whenever I try to, I end up fixing/cleaning some weird U-Boot code/behavior and spending way more time than I actually have available."
True, but...we cannot even break other boards, too. I have also get a short look at the issue, but I could not find myself the reason, too. I plan to get a deeper look in the week end.
It looks like that only for m68k the following statement does not work
#if CONFIG_IS_ENABLED(GZIP) && !defined(USE_HOSTCC)
But if I replace this with the equivalent one:
+#ifndef USE_HOSTCC +#if CONFIG_IS_ENABLED(GZIP)
This works - someone else should have discovered this before, because in common/image.c USE_HOSTCC is never anded with another CONFIG.
I have not found why this happens just for m68k, no issue with arm/aarch64 or PowerPC. I send a V2 with the changes like above.
@Tim: why do we need include/kconfig ?
Best regards, Stefano
