Hi, Wolfgang,

Dear Albert ARIBAUD,
In message 4D09E2B9.5030405@free.fr you wrote:
Why must you modify the original layout?
right!
Also, what is this 'plug-in' if it is not an IPL?
Yes, and why must it be linked at TEXT_BASE?
Let's stop this here.
Let's wait until any code is submitted or proposed that actually needs such a feature. Then we can discuss the design and try to find a solution that makes sense.
In fact, this is indeed one bug in the code as I said in the comit log:
"the _dynsym_start_ofs and _rel_dyn_start_ofs is the offset from _start, so, need use _start address instead of _TEXT_BASE to caculate the rel dyn start and sym table address. This patch also correct the board_init_r function address caculation in relocation area. The addr of board_init_r after relocation is: _board_init_r_offs + relocation start address."
Is there any thing wrong with my patch? The case I met just make the bug show up.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
