2009-08-21Fix all linker scripts for older binutils versions (pre-2.16)Wolfgang Denk
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>

2009-03-20Fix all linker script to handle all rodata sectionsTrent Piepho
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>
2008-11-18Align end of bss by 4 bytesSelvamuthukumar
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.

UNDEF_SYM is a shell variable in the main Makefile used to force the linker to add all u-boot commands to the final image. It has no use here. Signed-off-by: Kenneth Johansson <kenneth@southpole.se>
2008-06-03ppc4xx: Change Kilauea to use the common DDR2 init functionStefan Roese
This patch changes the kilauea and kilauea_nand (for NAND booting) board port to not use a board specific DDR2 init routine anymore. Now the common code from cpu/ppc4xx is used. Thanks to Grant Erickson for all his basic work on this 405EX early bootup. Signed-off-by: Stefan Roese <sr@denx.de>
2008-01-12Fix linker scripts: add NOLOAD atribute to .bss/.sbss sectionsWolfgang Denk
With recent toolchain versions, some boards would not build because or errors like this one (here for ocotea board when building with ELDK 4.2 beta): ppc_4xx-ld: section .bootpg [fffff000 -> fffff23b] overlaps section .bss [fffee900 -> fffff8ab] For many boards, the .bss section is big enough that it wraps around at the end of the address space (0xFFFFFFFF), so the problem will not be visible unless you use a 64 bit tool chain for development. On some boards however, changes to the code size (due to different optimizations) we bail out with section overlaps like above. The fix is to add the NOLOAD attribute to the .bss and .sbss sections, telling the linker that .bss does not consume any space in the image. Signed-off-by: Wolfgang Denk <wd@denx.de>
