Dear Alexander Holler,

Wait a minute. No parts of the code assume BSS is *cleared*, or at least no pat of the should *should ever* assume that. BSS is not "zeroed data", it is "uninitialized data".
Thats true for normal C, but I assume that is not true for u-boot.
It is true for U-Boot, too. After relocation, we provide a standard C execution environment, which includes a zeroes BSS.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk

And the bus is interrupted as a very last resort,
And the address of the memory makes your floppy disk abort,
Then the socket packet pocket has an error to report! - Ken Burchill?
