Benoît Thébaudeau 7086e91b0e arm: relocate_code(): Use __image_copy_end for end of relocation
Use __image_copy_end instead of __bss_start for the end of the image to
relocate. This is the same as commit 033ca72, but applied to all ARM start.S.

This is a more appropriate symbol naming for an image copy & relocate feature,
and this also saves a useless copy of data put between __image_copy_end and
__bss_start in linker scripts (e.g. relocation information, or MMU
initialization tables used only before jumping to the relocated image).

Tom Rini 0ce033d258 Merge branch 'master' of git://git.denx.de/u-boot-arm
Albert's rework of the linker scripts conflicted with Simon's making
everyone use __bss_end.  We also had a minor conflict over
README.scrapyard being added to in mainline and enhanced in
u-boot-arm/master with proper formatting.

Simon Glass 3929fb0a14 Replace __bss_end__ with __bss_end
Note this is a tree-wide change affecting multiple architectures.

At present we use __bss_start, but mostly __bss_end__. This seems
inconsistent and in a number of places __bss_end is used instead.

Change to use __bss_end for the BSS end symbol throughout U-Boot. This
makes it possible to use the asm-generic/sections.h file on all
archs.

Albert ARIBAUD ef123c5253 Refactor linker-generated arrays
Refactor linker-generated array code so that symbols
which were previously linker-generated are now compiler-
generated. This causes relocation records of type
R_ARM_ABS32 to become R_ARM_RELATIVE, which makes
code which uses LGA able to run before relocation as
well as after.

Note: this affects more than ARM targets, as linker-
lists span possibly all target architectures, notably
PowerPC.

Marek Vasut 8b493a5236 common: Discard the __u_boot_cmd section
The command declaration now uses the new LG-array method to generate
list of commands. Thus the __u_boot_cmd section is now superseded and
redundant and therefore can be removed. Also, remove externed symbols
associated with this section from include/command.h .

Marek Vasut 556751427b common: Add .u_boot_list into all linker files
Add section for the linker-generated lists into all possible linker
files, so that everyone can easily use these lists. This is mostly
a mechanical adjustment.

Po-Yu Chuang 44c6e6591c rename _end to __bss_end__
Currently, _end is used for end of BSS section.  We want _end to mean
end of u-boot image, so we rename _end to __bss_end__ first.

Trent Piepho f62fb99941 Fix all linker script to handle all rodata sections
A recent gcc added a new unaligned rodata section called '.rodata.str1.1',
which needs to be added the the linker script.  Instead of just adding this
one section, we use a wildcard ".rodata*" to get all rodata linker section
gcc has now and might add in the future.

However, '*(.rodata*)' by itself will result in sub-optimal section
ordering.  The sections will be sorted by object file, which causes extra
padding between the unaligned rodata.str.1.1 of one object file and the
aligned rodata of the next object file.  This is easy to fix by using the
SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT command.

This patch has not be tested one most of the boards modified.  Some boards
have a linker script that looks something like this:

*(.text)
. = ALIGN(16);
*(.rodata)
*(.rodata.str1.4)
*(.eh_frame)

I change this to:

*(.text)
. = ALIGN(16);
*(.eh_frame)
*(SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT(SORT_BY_NAME(.rodata*)))

This means the start of rodata will no longer be 16 bytes aligned.
However, the boundary between text and rodata/eh_frame is still aligned to
16 bytes, which is what I think the real purpose of the ALIGN call is.

Selvamuthukumar 9b827cf172 Align end of bss by 4 bytes
Most of the bss initialization loop increments 4 bytes
at a time. And the loop end is checked for an 'equal'
condition. Make the bss end address aligned by 4, so
that the loop will end as expected.

Guennadi Liakhovetski 11edcfe260 ARM: Add support for S3C6400 based SMDK6400 board
SMDK6400 can only boot U-Boot from NAND-flash. This patch adds a nand_spl
driver for it too. The board can also boot from the NOR flash, but due to
hardware limitations it can only address 64KiB on it, which is not enough
for U-Boot. Based on the original sources by Samsung for U-Boot 1.1.6.
