Hi, Albert:

I am studying 2014.07 release u-boot package.

I found u-boot.bin's first bytes were not code in start.S .

Taken for compling smdkv310 as an example:

The compiled u-boot.bin's first 0x20 bytes were:

18 F0 9F E5 18 F0 9F E5 18 F0 9F E5 18 F0 9F E5

18 F0 9F E5 18 F0 9F E5 18 F0 9F E5 18 F0 9F E5

......

So, Is it equal to "ldr pc, [pc,#0x18]" ?

Hard to say. Perhaps.

You should study the linker script (*.lds) for this board. It is likely that the code you are seeing is the reset vector.
