Hi all
In message 20101010151418.C169F14F310@gemini.denx.de I wrote:
Well, that addresses the line length argument, at the cost of complexity and syntax obscurity. But I changing TEXT_BASE to CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE is something we probably want to do anyway. If we ever switch to kconfig, and we want the text base to be part of that, it will have to start with CONFIG_.
OK. I tried this, but I'm actually running into a catch-22 situation after moving the CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE settings into boards.cfg: Some boards (especially such that support both booting from NOR or, alternatively, from NAND flash, or from RAM) contain only a default setting for CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE in their board specific config.mk file. For example "board/amcc/sequoia/config.mk":
In case anybody what's to see this problem in action, I've pushed my current working tree into the "Makefile-cleanup" branch of the u-boot-testing repository, see
