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>

2006-09-01Add support for a saving build objects in a separate directory.Marian Balakowicz
Modifications are based on the linux kernel approach and support two use cases: 1) Add O= to the make command line 'make O=/tmp/build all' 2) Set environement variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location 'export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build' 'make' The second approach can also be used with a MAKEALL script 'export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build' './MAKEALL' Command line 'O=' setting overrides BUILD_DIR environent variable. When none of the above methods is used the local build is performed and the object files are placed in the source directory.

2005-08-07Add common (with Linux) MTD partition scheme and "mtdparts" commandWolfgang Denk
Old, obsolete and duplicated code was cleaned up and replace by the new partitioning method. There are two possible approaches now: * define a single, static partition * use mtdparts command line option and dynamic partitioning Default is static partitioning.
2004-07-11* Patch by Dan Poirot, 06 Jul 2004:wdenk
Fix sbc8260 environment variables * Cleanup redundand "console" environment variable
2004-02-12* Some code cleanupwdenk
* Patch by Josef Baumgartner, 10 Feb 2004: Fixes for Coldfire port * Patch by Brad Kemp, 11 Feb 2004: Fix CFI flash driver problems
2003-07-24* Implement new mechanism to export U-Boot's functions to standalonewdenk
applications: instead of using (PPC-specific) system calls we now use a jump table; please see doc/README.standalone for details * Patch by Dave Westwood, 24 Jul 2003: added support for Unity OS (a proprietary OS)
2003-06-27* Code cleanup:wdenk
- remove trailing white space, trailing empty lines, C++ comments, etc. - split cmd_boot.c (separate cmd_bdinfo.c and cmd_load.c) * Patches by Kenneth Johansson, 25 Jun 2003: - major rework of command structure (work done mostly by Michal Cendrowski and Joakim Kristiansen)
2003-06-25* Header file cleanup for ARMwdenk
* Patch by Murray Jensen, 24 Jun 2003: - make sure to use only U-boot provided header files - fix problems with ".rodata.str1.4" section as used by GCC-3.x
2003-05-30* Get (mostly) rid of CFG_MONITOR_LEN definition; compute real lengthwdenk
instead CFG_MONITOR_LEN is now only used to determine _at_compile_ _time_ (!) if the environment is embedded within the U-Boot image, or in a separate flash sector. * Cleanup CFG_DER #defines in config files (wd maintained only)
2003-02-14Add "pcidelay" environment variable (in ms, enabled via CONFIG_PCI_BOOTDELAY).stroese
