Or, we can make more use of [posix] awk and make everything posix
compatible
${CROSS_COMPILE}objdump -h $KERNEL_ELF | sort -k 5,5 |
awk -P -v maxsize=$((FW_JUMP_FDT_ADDR - FW_JUMP_ADDR)) '
/^ +[0-9]+ / {
addr="0x"$3; size="0x"$5; size+=addr;
}
END {
if (size > maxsize) {
print "fdt overlaps kernel, increase FW_JUMP_FDT_ADDR";
}
}'
