Mike, I am aware that Blackfin is already using the C preprocessor to generate it's linker scripts. I guess this step can now be folded into this general mechanism. Do you want to provide such a patch, or shall I do it?
toolchains that are older than binutils-2.17 wont work with the Blackfin port, so compatibility with pre-2.16 isnt something this port needs to worry about
Agreed, but the cpp step is now _always_ performed, and in your case twice - first in your board directory, and then again by the top level Makefile. You could save the local run now.
ok, i missed that aspect. i think the changes needed are:
lib_blackfin/Makefile: -$(obj)u-boot.lds: u-boot.lds.S - $(CPP) $(CPPFLAGS) -D__ASSEMBLY__ -P $^ > $@ lib_blackfin/config.mk: -LDSCRIPT = $(obj)lib_$(ARCH)/u-boot.lds +LDSCRIPT = $(obj)lib_$(ARCH)/u-boot.lds.S
i can post a patch once yours gets merged -mike
