commit 8aba9dceebb14144e07d19593111ee3a999c37fc
Divides variable of linker flags to LDFLAGS-u-boot and LDFLAGS
breaks the usage of --gc-section to build nand_spl. We still need linker option
--gc-section for every uboot image, not only the main one. LDFLAGS_FINAL passes
the --gc-sections to each uboot image.
To get the proper linker flags, we use LDFLAGS and LDFLAGS_FINAL to replace
PLATFORM_LDFLAGS in the Makefile of each nand_spl board.

x86 has always used relocation offset in the opposite sense to the ELF
standard - Fix this

In later patches, cpu_init_f will be called before console has been
initialised and printf will not be legitimately available

early_board_init has been skipped to avoid SDRAM corruption in the case
that a fully relocatable image has been loaded into SDRAM and is being
executed from SDRAM. x86 is being aligned with other architectures (ARM
and PPC in particlar) and will be using Cache-As-RAM to run a C
environment from Flash (or SRAM if you have some). early_board_init may
be needed to assist in the setup of Cache-As-RAM and the early C
environment

Linker needs to use the proper endian/bfd flags even when doing partial linking.
LDFLAGS_u-boot sets linker option which is called it when U-boot is built
(u-boot final).
LDFLAGS sets necessary option by partial linking (use in cmd_link_o_target).

Before this commit, weak symbols were not overridden by non-weak symbols
found in archive libraries when linking with recent versions of
binutils. As stated in the System V ABI, "the link editor does not
extract archive members to resolve undefined weak symbols".
This commit changes all Makefiles to use partial linking (ld -r) instead
of creating library archives, which forces all symbols to participate in
linking, allowing non-weak symbols to override weak symbols as intended.
This approach is also used by Linux, from which the gmake function
cmd_link_o_target (defined in config.mk and used in all Makefiles) is
inspired.
The name of each former library archive is preserved except for
extensions which change from ".a" to ".o". This commit updates
references accordingly where needed, in particular in some linker
scripts.
This commit reveals board configurations that exclude some features but
include source files that depend these disabled features in the build,
resulting in undefined symbols. Known such cases include:
- disabling CMD_NET but not CMD_NFS;
- enabling CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT but not CONFIG_QE.

By now, the majority of architectures have working relocation
support, so the few remaining architectures have become exceptions.
To make this more obvious, we make working relocation now the default
case, and flag the remaining cases with CONFIG_NEEDS_MANUAL_RELOC.

CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE has always been just a bad workarond for not
being able to use "sizeof(struct global_data)" in assembler files.
Recent experience has shown that manual synchronization is not
reliable enough. This patch renames CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE into
GENERATED_GBL_DATA_SIZE which gets automatically generated by the
asm-offsets tool. In the result, all definitions of this value can be
deleted from the board config files. We have to make sure that all
files that reference such data include the new <asm-offsets.h> file.
No other changes have been done yet, but it is obvious that similar
changes / simplifications can be done for other, related macro
definitions as well.

The change is currently needed to be able to remove the board
configuration scripting from the top level Makefile and replace it by
a simple, table driven script.
Moving this configuration setting into the "CONFIG_*" name space is
also desirable because it is needed if we ever should move forward to
a Kconfig driven configuration system.

u-boot.bin can be loaded at any 4-byte aligned memory location and directly
'jumped' to using the 'go' command using the load address as the start
address. Doing so performs a 'warm boot' which skips memory initialisation
and other low-level initialisations, relocates U-Boot to upper memory and
starts U-Boot in RAM as per normal 'cold boot'
|
|
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
|
|
|
|
By reserving space for the Global Data immediately below the stack during
assembly level initialisation, the C declaration of the static global data
can be removed, along with the 'RAM Bootstrap' function. This results in
cleaner code, and the ability to pass boot-up flags from assembler into C
|
|
By using another register, reduce code size by one instruction
|
|
%ebx will hold low-level boot flags and must be preserved
|
|
Using %ebp as a return pointer prevents creating 'load anywhere' images
|
|
To allow for 'load anywhere' images, the %ebp return pointer 'hack' must
be removed, so we cannot have two 'calls' to get_mem_size
|
|
Progress indication is not relocation friendly so remove it in
preperation for full relocatability support
|
|
|
|
Change to:
- reparam=3
- no-from-pointer
- no-stack-protector
- preferred-stack-boundary=2
- no-top-level-reorder
These options make the code a little smaller and faster
|
|
Perform some basic code cleanups of the x86 files
|
|
Linux has C macros and code to load the GTD after switching to Protected
Mode. Using these greatly simplifies the assembler code
|
|
Follow the discussion of Charles Manning and Mike Frysinger.
Using gc_sections helps reduce image size.
|
|
The header of recent Linux Kernels includes the size of the image, and
therefore is not needed to be passed to zboot. Still process the third
parameter (size of image) in the event that an older kernel is being loaded
|
|
Relocation is not board-specific for the x86 architectrure, so
CONFIG_RELOC_FIXUP_WORKS can be defined globally in the config.h
|
|
This patch removes the completely unused CONFIG_SERIAL_SOFTWARE_FIFO
feature from U-Boot. It has only been implemented for PPC4xx and was not
used at all. So let's remove it and make the code smaller and cleaner.
