ELF relocation tables generated with linker option -pie can
be used to fixup code and data in a single loop at relocation,
removing the need for manual fixups anywhere else in the code.
Signed-off-by: Albert Aribaud <albert.aribaud(a)free.fr>
---
This patch set is intended for the ELF relocation branch, not
for master or next!
V1 Initial submission after RFC
V2 Removed useless datarel references and sections
Defined CONFIG_RELOC_FIXUP_WORKS for all ARMs
Removed useless define of CONFIG_RELOC_FIXUP_WORKS
and undefine of CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC from
edminiv2 board

To make relocation on arm working, the following changes are done:
-Add new compilerflag:
+At arch level: add linker flag -pie
--fPIC
+ This causes the linker to generate fixup tables .rel.dyn and .dynsym,
+ which must be applied to the relocated image before transferring
+ control to it.
- -> compiler generates position independent code
+ These fixups are described in the ARM ELF documentation as type 23
+ (program-base-relative) and 2 (symbol-relative)
-changes in board code:
+At cpu level: modify linker file and add a relocation and fixup loop
-- dram_init:
- - bd pointer is now at this point not accessible, so only
- detect the real dramsize, and store it in gd->ram_size.
- best detected with get_ram_size();
- ToDo: move there also the dram initialization on boards where
- it is possible.
- - setup the bd_t dram bank info in the new function
- dram_init_banksize().
+ the linker file must be modified to include the .rel.dyn and .dynsym
+ tables in the binary image, and to provide symbols for the relocation
+ code to access these tables
-- board.c code is adapted from ppc code
+ The relocation and fixup loop must be executed after executing
+ board_init_f at initial location and before executing board_init_r
+ at final location.
-- undef CONFIG_RELOC_FIXUP_WORKS
+At board level:
- -> cmdtabl, and subcommand table must be handled from "hand"
- collected in section "__datarellocal_start".
+ dram_init(): bd pointer is now at this point not accessible, so only
+ detect the real dramsize, and store it in gd->ram_size. Bst detected
+ with get_ram_size().
- - How To fixup the sections:
+TODO: move also dram initialization there on boards where it is possible.
- __datarel_start, __datarelrolocal_start, __datarellocal_start and
- __datarelro_start
+ Setup of the the bd_t dram bank info is done in the new function
+ dram_init_banksize() called after bd is accessible.
- automatically? Then it should be possible to define again
- CONFIG_RELOC_FIXUP_WORKS
+At lib level:
-- irq stack setup is now not longer on a fix position, instead it is
- calculated in board_init_f, and stored in gd->irq_sp
+ Board.c code is adapted from ppc code
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+At config level:
-To compile a board without relocation, define CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC
-This possibility will removed!! So please fix your board to compile without

-As this must be done for all address in the GOT, the u-boot
-code did this automagically ... :-)

-----------------------------------------------
-
-g) check if the new address is really in the bss section:
-
-bss start:
-8ff6054c (8ff08000 + 0005854C monitorlen)
-
-bss end:
-8ff698ac (8ff08000 + 618AC)
-
-8ff634cc is in bss :-)
