Hi,

With today's top of the tree U-Boot I'm getting this:

./MAKEALL MPC8555CDS
Configuring for MPC8555CDS board...
ppc_85xx-ld: u-boot: Not enough room for program headers (allocated 3, need 4)
ppc_85xx-ld: final link failed: Bad value
make: *** [u-boot] B??d 1
ppc_85xx-size: './u-boot': No such file

Is this known, anyone working on fixing this perhaps?

kind regards,
Rafal

Yes, I also happened it as you.

Please revert it and have a try.

Revert "mpc85xx: Update linker scripts for Freescale boards"

This reverts commit f0ff885ca64655bee6540eb8a25eed90b1152686.

Hm... using ELDK 4.2 I get this:

Which toolchain did you use?

Mine was ELDK 4.1; it seems the two gcc/linker versions lay out the binary differently then..

Rafal,

Can you try the following patch and see if works for you (make sure the resulting image actually boots the board). If so I'll fixup all the .lds I changed to match.

Hi Kumar,

Thanks, the code works, although during compilation the following warning appears:

./MAKEALL MPC8555CDS
Configuring for MPC8555CDS board...
ppc_85xx-ld: u-boot: warning: allocated section `.bss' not in segment
text data bss dec hex filename

Yeah it was the best I could do.. older binutils have some issue and figured a warning was better than it not functioning at all.

Hm... previous experience with ld has made me extremely suspicious about ld warnings. They all turn into subtle, but nasty errors sooner or later.

I think we should find a solution that does without such warnings.

If this is impossible in the remaining time (given the late state in the release cycle) I think it is better to back out the patch that causes the problem, and try to solve this wil less pressure in the next release.

Best regards,

sent a v2 that addresses the warning. hopefully that will put this to rest.
