I tried several variants to make the function lowlevel_init() weak but without success. If there is no other solution for the problem could you commit my patch. Without this patch I can't post the patch for our PM9261 and PM9263 boards.
I've found that weak functions are only overwritten if the overwriting function is in a file (not archive) that has strongly-linked symbols. Admittedly, I've only done this with C code but expect that the assembly equivalent works the same way. The idea of using weak functions seems great, but suffers from some pretty cumbersome weaknesses :)
I've found a solution but it's need to update the all u-boot linking method.
Move from AR to LD.
Which need some work to fit on all boards.
Best Regards, J.
Could be possible to commit my patch (I need it for the PM9261/PM9263 patches) because the moving from AR to LD will take a lot of time. When the moving from AR to LD is done, I will correct my board's patches.
Otherwise I must wait a lot of time and must change my patches every time when there is an correction in the at91 platform.
