[PATCH] Revert "tools: mkimage: detect overlapping load regions in FIT configurations"

Thu Sep 25 15:41:43 CEST 2025


This reverts commit 588094f2c8ec9a4f7d2dcda11ffae8db8462149c.

This introduces warnings on valid fitImages which do not set load
address for fdt-1 DT node. This is valid, because DT can be loaded
to suitable location as determined by the fitImage loader.

Warning: not able to get `load` of node 'fdt-1'

Furthermore, do not add C++ style comments into C code.

Either send a fix or apply this revert.
