      powerpc/boot: Add OPAL console to epapr wrappers

      This patch adds an OPAL console backend to the powerpc boot wrapper so
      that decompression failures inside the wrapper can be reported to the
      user. This is important since it typically indicates data corruption in
      the firmware and other nasty things.

      Currently this only works when building a little endian kernel. When
      compiling a 64 bit BE kernel the wrapper is always build 32 bit to be
      compatible with some 32 bit firmwares. BE support will be added at a
      later date. Another limitation of this is that only the "raw" type of
      OPAL console is supported, however machines that provide a hvsi console
      also provide a raw console so this is not an issue in practice.

I can provide a config file if needed. My apologies if this was already
reported.
Thanks for the report, I don't think this is a known bug. mpe's build
testing is pretty thorough so I'm surprised this wasn't caught sooner.

A config file and the version of gcc that you're using would be useful.

Config attached , it's for a Fresecale t1042 machine. The GCC is custom
based on 4.4.1 .
o_O

So only an 8 year old compiler! :D

I can't reproduce here with 4.6.3 sorry, which is the oldest I have handy.

Can you debug it a bit further at your end? I assume your toolchain is
built with libc?

cheers


It appears to be fairly straight forward,


In file included from arch/powerpc/boot/fdt.c:51:
../arch/powerpc/boot/libfdt_env.h:9: error: redefinition of typedef 'uint32_t' ../arch/powerpc/boot/types.h:20: note: previous declaration of 'uint32_t' was here ../arch/powerpc/boot/libfdt_env.h:10: error: redefinition of typedef 'uint64_t' ../arch/powerpc/boot/types.h:21: note: previous declaration of 'uint64_t' was here


So in types.h you added a couple new types "unit32_t" and "uint64_t" , but alas libfdt_env.h is already defining those and includes types.h . So now libfdt_env.h ends up having two types with the same name. I suppose it's possible that newer compilers ignore this issue if the types are identical which in this case they are.

To fix this I removed the typedefs from libfdt_env.h , if you make a patch like that I can test it.
