Hi, I'm using U-boot-1.0.0 on an ebony board (ppc), and running into section overlap error at the time of linking. here's what the output looks like ...
section .u_boot_cmd [ffffef50 -> fffff567] overlaps section .bootpg [fffff000 -> fffff29f]
1) how do i get around this ? Taking out cmd_bmp, cmd_ide, cmd_scsi etc etc which i'm not using from the common/Makefile helped, Looks like i cant take out most of the commands, they are referred from other portion of the code.
2) How does these commands scheme work, are the always linked in ? 3) I thought you could cherry pick the ones you need. is this correct ? 4) Also is this a right approach to handle the above problem. 5) Would using -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections for gcc and --gc-sections for the linker possible.
Any suggestion how i could remove unwanted stuff. Your thoughts and suggestion would be appreciated.
