Wolfgang,
Which board would that be? I don't see this on any board I tested.
it is mvblm7 (=MPC8343) and a new MPC8377 based one waiting for the merge window to open.
I'm using a gcc-4.3.3 from OpenEmbedded/Angstrom ... if this matters at all.
Can you please try and use anothe rtool chain, say good ole ELDK 4.2 for a test?
yes, of course. But I can make some tests on real hardware not before monday.
This is what I can say after compiling with both toolchains.
1. redundant env
CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_6xx- ARCH=powerpc sh MAKEALL mvblm7 text data bss dec hex filename 233298 21940 66960 322198 4ea96 ./u-boot
CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-angstrom-linux- ARCH=powerpc sh MAKEALL mvblm7 text data bss dec hex filename 233758 21948 66956 322662 4ec66 ./u-boot
2. without redundant env
swa@swa-m460:~/u-boot$ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_6xx- ARCH=powerpc sh MAKEALL mvblm7 text data bss dec hex filename 232494 21912 66960 321366 4e756 ./u-boot
swa@swa-m460:~/u-boot$ CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-angstrom-linux- ARCH=powerpc sh MAKEALL mvblm7 text data bss dec hex filename 232954 21920 66956 321830 4e926 ./u-boot
size of final u-boot binary differs by 8 bytes ... sounds promising ;-)
Will run both versions asap.
Regards, André
