Re: [XEN][RFC PATCH 03/13] libfdt: import fdt_overlay from Linux



Hi Vikram,

Xen is missing fdt overlay functionalities. FDT overlay is required for changing
the device tree nodes during run-time.

fdt_overlay.c file is copied from Linux tree's following patch:
commit: 6e9c9686d826564f44c93cdd6f111b1c0a9dc224
scripts/dtc: Update to upstream version v1.6.0-31-gcbca977ea121

This patch and the next one add quite a bit of code in libfdt. The directory xen/common/libfdt is pretty much a snapshot of v1.4.0 (we tweaked the Makefile and import 2 bug fixes).

So I would prefer if we re-sync our directory with the one in https://github.com/dgibson/dtc.git. v1.6.1 seems a good candidate.

Cheers,
