When building a uImage or zImage using ppc6xx_defconfig and some other
defconfigs, the following error occurs:

  BOOTCC  arch/powerpc/boot/fdt.o
  In file included from arch/powerpc/boot/fdt.c:51:0:

  make[2]: *** [arch/powerpc/boot/fdt.o] Error 1

The problem is that commit 656ad58ef19e (powerpc/boot: Add OPAL console
to epapr wrappers) adds typedefs for uint32_t and uint64_t to type.h but
doesn't remove the pre-existing (and now duplicate) typedefs from
libfdt_env.h.  Fix the error by removing the duplicat typedefs from
libfdt_env.h

Having said all of that, commit 656ad58ef19e (powerpc/boot: Add OPAL
console to epapr wrappers) went into mainline back in 2016 so, AFAICT,
this has been broken since then.  That seems unlikely so I must be
missing something...  Any ideas what that is?

I just compiled uImage for ppc6xx_defconfig, and I don't get such error.
I looked at what gcc -E outputs, u32 is defined twice but it doesn't seems
to bother GCC.

What version of GCC do you use ?
I tried with 5.4.0 and 4.6.3, both seems to work.

Hi Christophe.

That's interesting.  I would expect an error regardless of version.

I used an old 4.5.1 gcc that I had laying around (from denx, iirc).
I'll find a newer one and try it.

Either way, it seems to me that we should remove the duplicate definitions.
Do you agree?

Thanks,

Mark
