Subject: [PATCHv2] ARM: zImage: Use $(CROSS_COMPILE)size to get .bss size
Date: Thu, 13 Oct 2011 08:50:22 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1318488622-20023-1-git-send-email-weber@corscience.de> (raw)

Use $(CROSS_COMPILE)size to determine the bss size
from vmlinux.

The problem is introduced in:

commit 5ffb04f6690d71fab241b3562ebf52b893ac4ff1
ARM: zImage: make sure appended DTB doesn't get
overwritten by kernel .bss

This fixes following error message:

size: arch/arm/boot/compressed/../../../../vmlinux:
File format is ambiguous

size: Matching formats:
elf32-littlearm
elf32-littlearm-symbian
elf32-littlearm-vxworks
