* Fix all linker scripts for older binutils versions (pre-2.16)Wolfgang Denk2009-08-21-2/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit f62fb99941c6 fixed handling of all rodata sections by using a wildcard combined with calls to ld's builtin functions SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT() and SORT_BY_NAME(). Unfortunately these functions were only introduced with biunutils version 2.16, so the modification broke building with all tool chains using older binutils. This patch makes it work again. This is done by omitting the use of these functions for such old tool chains. This will result in slightly larger target binaries, as the rodata sections are no longer in optimal order alignment-wise which reauls in unused gaps, but the effect was found to be insignificant - especially compared to the fact that you cannot build U-Boot at all in the current state. As ld seems to have no support for conditionals we run the linker script through the C preprocessor which can be easily used to remove the unwanted function calls. Note that the C preprocessor must be run with the "-ansi" (or a "-std=") option to make sure all the system-specific predefined macros outside the reserved namespace are suppressed. Otherise, cpp might for example substitute "powerpc" to "1", thus corrupting for example "OUTPUT_ARCH(powerpc)" etc. Signed-off-by: Wolfgang Denk <wd@denx.de> Cc: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>

* Fix all linker script to handle all rodata sectionsTrent Piepho2009-03-20-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Signed-off-by: Trent Piepho <xyzzy@speakeasy.org>
* Align end of bss by 4 bytesSelvamuthukumar2008-11-18-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Most of the bss initialization loop increments 4 bytes at a time. And the loop end is checked for an 'equal' condition. Make the bss end address aligned by 4, so that the loop will end as expected. Signed-off-by: Selvamuthukumar <selva.muthukumar@e-coninfotech.com> Signed-off-by: Wolfgang Denk <wd@denx.de>
* ARM: Add support for S3C6400 based SMDK6400 boardGuennadi Liakhovetski2008-08-31-0/+207
SMDK6400 can only boot U-Boot from NAND-flash. This patch adds a nand_spl driver for it too. The board can also boot from the NOR flash, but due to hardware limitations it can only address 64KiB on it, which is not enough for U-Boot. Based on the original sources by Samsung for U-Boot 1.1.6.
