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)

./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 ?

Stefano,

If we switch to your method above we don't need it (it was needed for
what I submitted).

Ok


Shall I resubmit with your suggested change around
GZIP/BZIP2/LZMA/LZO/LZ4/ZSTD in image_decomp?

Yes, please.

And if so, with these
changes would I replace Frieder's sign-off with a Cc as the patch has
changed quite a bit from his original derived work?

No, I do not think so. Original work is from Frieder, and his work should be tracked. You add of course your Signed-off-by, but without removing Frieder's.


Have you had any time to review the reset of the patch series yet?

The rest, you mean :-)

It was ok for me and I was already merging the whole series until I got this weird error on m68k.

Best regards,
Stefano
