More changes like this may be needed, but these I compile-tested with v2014.01 (regression from v2013.10). colibri_t20_iris was runtime-tested. GCC 4.8.2 r206511, binutils 2.24
arch/arm/cpu/u-boot.lds | 1 + board/ti/am335x/u-boot.lds | 1 + 2 files changed, 2 insertions(+)
Is this an ARM specific issue, or other architectures affected as well?
I figured out that the section was apparently not caught by the .gnu* wildcard and this patch fixed our build for the following ARM configs:
am335x_evm arndale colibri_t20_iris cubieboard highbank hyundai_a7hd mele_a1000 mx53loco omap3_beagle omap4_panda paz00 rpi_b
My guess was that this could be related to the arm-only commit: http://git.denx.de/?p=u-boot.git;a=commit;h=47ed5dd031d7d2c587e6afd386e79cce... (which touches on a few more .lds files than mine)
But I see nothing ARM-specific in .gnu.hash sections, so other architectures might in theory be affected as well. Cf. http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2006-10/msg00377.html
I did read your post for ELDK pointing someone to an FAQ entry on not using gcc-specific flags with ld, but for one I did not spot such a thing in the ld command line, and for another our toolchain did not change and v2013.10 builds succeed whereas v2014.01 builds failed without the patch. I could try to git-bisect the offending change if necessary.
Using gcc version 4.8.1 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.8.1-10ubuntu7), I cannot see any issues on these boards:
am335x_evm colibri_t20_iris highbank mx53loco omap3_beagle omap4_panda paz00 rpi_b
On arndale, issues are due to warnings unrelated to linking.
Cubieboard, hyundai_a7hd, mele_a1000 are not in mainline AFAICT (but I'd like to see mele_a1000 in, as this might mean mele_a1000g could follow. :) )
Sorry, missed that. I had merged v2014.01 into the sunxi tree and updated our downstream patch from it (v2014.01-sunxi.patch). It did not seem to touch on Makefile or ldscript in an interfering way. Cf. https://github.com/afaerber/u-boot/commits/sunxi
Other downstream changes include forcing ext4 support for SPL and tweaking boot.scr vs. boot.scr.uimg filename inconsistencies.
Can you point me to the toolchain you are using, and if you are not building mainline code, can you make this code available to me somehow?
Ping.
Somehow I did not receive the previous message...
Our latest GCC 4.8.2 can be found here: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/openSUSE:Factory:ARM/gcc48
Matching binutils 2.24 are here: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/openSUSE:Factory:ARM/binutils
Our latest U-Boot tarball and patches: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/Base:System/u-boot Build logs can be found in the u-boot-* packages in the same project, with underscores stripped, e.g.: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/Base:System/u-boot-am335xevm
Thanks for your reply. Apparently, the problem does not appear for the boards in mainline U-Boot which I listed above with the source code from our v2014.01 tag and using gcc 4.8.1 from Linaro. I can install 4.8.2, but meanwhile, can you try to build v2014.01 for these boards with your setup?
