I'm in the process of updating platform support for spear series of SoC on the latest u-boot. I picked u-boot v2011.12. I tried compiling for different spear boards (spear 300, 310, 300 and spear600). In every compilation, I'm getting following errors:
arm-linux-ld: section .bss [007263cc -> 00728c5b] overlaps section .rel.dyn [007263cc -> 0072a623] arm-linux-ld: u-boot: section .bss lma 0x7263cc overlaps previous sections make: *** [u-boot] Error 1
This is one case.
In fact, .bss overlapping .rel.dyn is normal -- the linker file even explicitly states this with ".bss __rel_dyn_start (OVERLAY)".
Ok.
Which compiler do you use and which board exactly are you building?
We are using internal STLinux distribution. I tried compiling for spear320, and I couldn't succeed. Just to move a step further, can you please try "make spear320" at your end? If the error is not received at your end, I can be sure that the problem is due to the distribution at my end.
Thanks in advance.

PS: I used v2011.12. "spear320" entry isn't there in the boards.cfg file. I shall be sending patch to update the same once I resolve this linking error.
