[PATCH] libfdt: overlay: Fix phandle overwrite check for new subtrees

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If the overlay's target is only created in a previous fragment, it
doesn't exist in the unmodified base device tree. For the phandle
overwrite check this can be ignored because in this case the base tree
doesn't contain a phandle that could be overwritten.

Adapt the corresponding check to not error out if that happens but just
continue with the next fragment.

This is currently triggered by
arch/arm64/boot/dts/renesas/salvator-panel-aa104xd12.dtso in the kernel
repository which creates /panel in its first fragment and modifies it in
its second.
