Hi All,
Could some one please let me know whether u-boot has its own dynamic linker? This question comes to my mind while building u-boot for ARM architecture and seeing the relocation entry into the final u-boot elf. Here the same u-boot sources behaved differently while generating relocation record in final binary and as ARM based u-boot only support relocation record "R_ARM_RELATIVE". So please let me know whether u-boot has its own dynamic linker with some document or pointing to the source file related to the same.
Thanks in advance.
Regards, Atul Kumar Singh.

It does not. The U-Boot image is linked statically, but relocatable. Relocation is done manually, no linker or such is involved.
