Wasn't aware of the whole symbols problematic... I actually just realized that this got fixed upstream: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/utils/dtc/dtc.git/commit/libfdt/fdt_overlay.c?id=7d8ef6e1db9794f72805a0855f4f7f12fadd03d3 I guess we could backport that fix? -- Stefan ___ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot

In the (uncommon, true, but still real) case where you wouldn't have any label in the base DT, __symbols__ wouldn't be there. Now, that code would return an error only if there's such a reference expressed in __fixups__, but no __symbols__ node that also has that reference. This is definitely an error but not really a NOTFOUND. You had an offset already, but this offset was bad. Hence the error. Do you have a base DT and an overlay showing up the error you're trying to fix? Either way, that should be discussed with upstream's libfdt ml and maintainer, not (only) on U-Boot.
