Hi,
I'm attempting to build u-boot for the SC520, starting with the AMD eval board. The code in cvs doesn't build. With the patch below it builds.
But, the "objdump" to srec fails... If I do the objdump to a binary file I get a 900mb file :-)
In my experience, this behavior is usually a problem with the linker definition file. I'm not certain if it is a bug in the toolchain, or simply some kind of mistake in the lds file.
obviously objdump is attempting to fill some gap - but how to fix this?
something tells me this behavior is "new" and didn't happen with older objdumps...
What version of the compiler are you using?
also, in case it's interesting I've been able to do a lot of debugging with bochs, using a modified link directive file...
Cross compiling, perhaps?
I'm including a link to a version of the linker file that I've used. It may not work as-is for you because I added some sections in order to move code around.
http://ftp.buici.com/pub/u-boot/
There is an linker definition file there as well as an old tar-ball with sources for u-boot that did build.
Cheers.
