Subject: [PATCH] of: Kconfig: OF_OVERLAY, select OF_EARLY_FLATTREE
Date: Sun, 18 Feb 2018 16:29:16 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1519000156-14319-1-git-send-email-frowand.list@gmail.com> (raw)
From: Frank Rowand <frank.rowand@sony.com>
kbuild test robot reported a new warning for a recent patch:
>> drivers/of/overlay.c:832:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'of_fdt_unflatten_tree' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
of_fdt_unflatten_tree(new_fdt, NULL, &overlay_root);
The cause is that the prototype for of_fdt_unflatten_tree() in
include/linux/of_fdt.c is guarded by OF_EARLY_FLATTREE.
This was a pre-existing problem for any overlay related caller of
of_fdt_unflatten_device_tree(), who was then going to pass the
unflattened tree to of_overlay_apply(). After the patch that triggered
this warning, all other overlay callers of of_fdt_unflatten_device_tree()
no longer exist, so adding the select to OF_OVERLAY is a sufficient fix.
To reproduce the warning:
Use the .config attached to https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/2/17/268
make ARCH=i386 olddefconfig
make ARCH=i386 CC=gcc-7 drivers/of/overlay.o
