Hi. I am getting data abort while using original u-boot.lds file. If i allign bss to 4 bytes rather than using " .bss __rel_dyn_start (OVERLAY) : {". With existing code i am getting odd address leading to data abort. PFA the patch.
Is this a right approach to fix the data abort?
regards, Chander

No, this is not correct. You should keep the OVERLAY part.

Try instead:
