Commit 14d0a02a "Rename TEXT_BASE into CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE" missed a
few places, especially for boards that were added inbetween. Fix the
remaining issues.

Provides a small speed increase and prepares for fully relocatable image.
Downside is the TEXT_BASE, bss, load address etc must ALL be aligned on a
a 4-byte boundary which is not such a terrible restriction as everything
is already 4-byte aligned anyway

Tidy up the linker script and discard some sections to save space
|
|
|
|
| |
Create more generic names for the symbols exported from the linker script
|
|

Follow the discussion of Charles Manning and Mike Frysinger.
Using gc_sections helps reduce image size.

Use TEXT_BASE rather than a hard-coded base address on x86 linker scripts.
This will allow any board to define its base link address without having
to modify the linker script

Add a parameter to the 32-bit entry to indicate if entry is from Real
Mode or not. If entry is from Real Mode, execute the destructive 'sizer'
routine to determine memory size as we are booting cold and running in
Flash. If not entering from Real Mode, we are executing a U-Boot image
from RAM and therefore the memory size is already known (and running
'sizer' will destroy the running image)
There are now two 32-bit entry points. The first is the 'in RAM' entry
point which exists at the start of the U-Boot binary image. As such,
you can load u-boot.bin in RAM and jump directly to the load address
without needing to calculate any offsets. The second entry point is
used by the real-to-protected mode switch
This patch also changes TEXT_BASE to 0x6000000 (in RAM). You can load
the resulting image at 0x6000000 and simple go 0x6000000 from the u-boot
prompt
Hopefully a later patch will completely elliminate any dependency on
TEXT_BASE like a relocatable linux kernel (perfect world)

A recent gcc added a new unaligned rodata section called '.rodata.str1.1',
which needs to be added the the linker script. Instead of just adding this
one section, we use a wildcard ".rodata*" to get all rodata linker section
gcc has now and might add in the future.
However, '*(.rodata*)' by itself will result in sub-optimal section
ordering. The sections will be sorted by object file, which causes extra
padding between the unaligned rodata.str.1.1 of one object file and the
aligned rodata of the next object file. This is easy to fix by using the
SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT command.
This patch has not be tested one most of the boards modified. Some boards
have a linker script that looks something like this:
*(.text)
. = ALIGN(16);
*(.rodata)
*(.rodata.str1.4)
*(.eh_frame)
I change this to:
*(.text)
. = ALIGN(16);
*(.eh_frame)
*(SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT(SORT_BY_NAME(.rodata*)))
This means the start of rodata will no longer be 16 bytes aligned.
However, the boundary between text and rodata/eh_frame is still aligned to
16 bytes, which is what I think the real purpose of the ALIGN call is.

Brings i386 in line with other CPUs with a reset vector and frees up reset.c
for CPU reset functions
