Dear Albert ARIBAUD,
In message 4D66A7CD.9020309@free.fr you wrote:
As far as I can tell, arch/powerpc/lib/board.c , arch/avr32/lib/board.c and examples/standalone/stubs.c actually all mean __bss_end, as well as all the start.S files, so this seems to be consistently used at least.
I'd come to the same conclusion on my side. However you don't say how you would like the change to be done. Would a single commit for renaming _end into _bss_end and then creating _end after .dynsym be ok for you?
Ah, sorry.
Well, these are two logically separate things: the first is just a renamer that should basicly result in the very same images built on all systems (which can easily be verified semi-automatically). The second step would be adding _end at the end of the used data area (end of .dynsym) on ARM only.
I don't have the environment to build other platforms, so... does any of you please to provide such patches?
