Subject: Required functions for relocating not part of relocate section
Date: Fri, 4 Nov 2005 16:06:05 -0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20051104180605.GA3271@logos.cnet> (raw)
Hi Paul,
Recent 2.6-git (from Wednesday) tree fails to boot on 8xx due to:
BDI>i

Debug entry cause : trace
Current PC : 0x005ba8e8
BDI>md 0x005ba8e8

Problem is that flush_instruction_cache (and flush_data_cache)
from boot/common/util.S are not being copied to the relocate section,
even though the file contains the proper entry:
.section ".relocate_code","xa"
/*
* Flush and enable instruction cache
* First, flush the data cache in case it was enabled and may be
* holding instructions for copy back.
*/
_GLOBAL(flush_instruction_cache)
Here is the disassemble of the relocate section:
004047a0 <__relocate_start>:
4047a0: 38 c0 00 00 li r6,0
4047a4: 7c e9 03 a6 mtctr r7

4047fc: 60 63 01 14 ori r3,r3,276
404800: 7c 68 03 a6 mtlr r3
404804: 4b ff d5 40 b 401d44 <flush_instruction_cache>
Disassembly of section .data:
Replacing "b flush_instruction_cache" with "ba flush_instruction_cache"
makes the system boot.
The problem does not exist on v2.6.14.
Any clues??
