hello all.. i am using buildroot to compile u-boot (u-boot 1.2.0) for the kb9202 board. the buildroot is compiled with the following: Target Architecture (arm) Target Architecture Variant (arm720t) Target ABI (OABI) Kernel Headers (Linux 2.6.12 kernel headers) Binutils Version (binutils 2.16.91.0.7) GCC compiler Version (gcc 3.4.5) [*] Build/install c++ compiler and libstdc++? [*] Build/install a shared libgcc? [*] Run mklibs on the built root filesystem [*] Enable multilib support? [*] Use software floating point by default [*] Include target utils in cross toolchain buildroot is compiled fine..i get the cross complier arm-linux-
i do a make kb9202_config. an error occurs when i do a make
[yaseenlanka@localhost u-boot]$ make . . . . .

the invalid constant is CFG_MALLOC_LEN (defined in more den 300+ .h files), two macros call the same constant (get_bad_stack, bad_save_user_regs). i did a search for the definition CFG_MALLOC_LEN, its defined in more den 300+ .h files. only 2 .h files are included in start.S (#include <config.h> #include <version.h>).
the CFG_MALLOC_LEN is defined in configs/kb9202.h, which comes to the above value(20200 & 28200). i tried including configs/kb9202.h directly in start.S (#include <configs/kb9202.h>). it did not resolve the problem.
Someone please help me...i have a deadline!!! Thanks..
