From dde3b70dcf3d13b3ce173a017788f7522780b857 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Simon Glass Date: Thu, 23 Feb 2012 03:28:41 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] arm: add a common .lds link script Most ARM CPUs use a very similar link script. This adds a basic script that can be used by most CPUs. Two new symbols are introduced which are intended to eventually be defined on all architectures to make things easier for generic relocation and reduce special-case code for each architecture: __image_copy_start is the start of the text area (equivalent to the existing _start on ARM). It marks the start of the region which must be copied to a new location during relocation. This symbol is called __text_start on x86 and microblaze. __image_copy_end is the end of the region which must be copied to a new location during relocation. It is normally equal to the start of the BSS region, but this can vary in some cases (SPL?). Making this an explicit symbol on its own removes any ambiguity and permits common code to always do the right thing. This new script makes use of CPUDIR, now defined by both Makefile and spl/Makefile, to find the directory containing the start.o object file, which is always placed first in the image. To permit MMU setup prior to relocation (as used by pxa) we add an area to the link script which contains space for this. This is taken from commit 7f4cfcf. CPUs can put the contents in there using their start.S file. BTW, shouldn't that area be 16KB-aligned?
