2014-11-01MIPS: add .padding section to linker scriptDaniel Schwierzeck
Commit 79fd7e649e287228a1445820a72f7dd33baedb96 MIPS: always keep all sections in u-boot ELF binary. Always keep all sections in u-boot ELF binary. Move all unneeded sections after _end to avoid allocating space in the final binary. Also remove .deadcode section which is now obsolete. removed section .deadcode because the original symptoms were not visible anymore. Unfortuneatly the binutils bug still exists. The size of .rel.dyn section is often bigger than needed for all entries. But objcopy only allocates space as much as required for all reloc entries. Thus there is a gap between the last entry and __rel_dyn_end in u-boot.bin. If u-boot is booted from RAM (e.g. in SPL scenarios) that area could contain garbage data which could lead to CPU exceptions during relocation.

2014-04-20MIPS: define __init_end in u-boot.ldsPaul Burton
The generic board code uses the __init_end symbol to calculate monitor_flash_len. Define said symbol for MIPS, equivalent to __image_copy_end which is used for the same purpose in arch/mips/lib/board.c. Signed-off-by: Paul Burton <paul.burton@imgtec.com>

2013-03-12Refactor linker-generated arraysAlbert ARIBAUD
Refactor linker-generated array code so that symbols which were previously linker-generated are now compiler- generated. This causes relocation records of type R_ARM_ABS32 to become R_ARM_RELATIVE, which makes code which uses LGA able to run before relocation as well as after. Note: this affects more than ARM targets, as linker- lists span possibly all target architectures, notably PowerPC.

2013-02-12MIPS: u-boot.lds: add relocation specific sectionsGabor Juhos
This section contain the table needed for dynamic relocation. Also provide symbols for the relocation code to access the table. Discard all sections which are not needed in the final ELF binary and U-Boot image. Section .dynsym cannot be discarded or GNU ld crashes otherwise. This section will be stripped by GNU objcpy in a later patch. Signed-off-by: Gabor Juhos <juhosg@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: Daniel Schwierzeck <daniel.schwierzeck@gmail.com>
2013-02-12MIPS: start.S: use symbol __image_copy_end for U-Boot image relocationDaniel Schwierzeck
Use the newly introduced symbol __image_copy_end as end address for relocation of U-Boot image. This is needed for dynamic relocation added in later patches. This patch obsoletes the symbols uboot_end and uboot_end_data which are removed. Signed-off-by: Daniel Schwierzeck <daniel.schwierzeck@gmail.com>
2013-02-12MIPS: u-boot.lds: introduce symbol __image_copy_endDaniel Schwierzeck
This symbol is used in later patches as end address for relocation of the U-Boot image into RAM. Signed-off-by: Daniel Schwierzeck <daniel.schwierzeck@gmail.com>
2013-02-12MIPS: u-boot.lds: merge all BSS sections and introduce symbols __bss_[start|end]Daniel Schwierzeck
These symbols are used in later patches for as addresses for clearing the BSS area in the relocated U-Boot image. Signed-off-by: Daniel Schwierzeck <daniel.schwierzeck@gmail.com>
2013-02-12MIPS: compute num_got_entries from .got section's sizeGabor Juhos
The '__got_start' and '__got_end' symbols are used only in the linker script to compute the value of the 'num_got_entries' symbol. Remove the symbols and use the SIZEOF(.got) command to get the size of the .got section. Signed-off-by: Gabor Juhos <juhosg@openwrt.org> Cc: Daniel Schwierzeck <daniel.schwierzeck@googlemail.com>
2013-01-31MIPS: add unified u-boot.lds fileGabor Juhos
