Subject: [U-Boot] [PATCH] elf: use program header for loading
Date: Mon, 5 Dec 2016 13:23:08 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1480940588-14793-1-git-send-email-christian.gmeiner@gmail.com> (raw)
The section header address is a VMA whereas the address found in
the program header is a physical one. With this change it is
possible to load and start a vx7 intel generic based image.
$ readelf -l /tmp/vx7
Elf file type is EXEC (Executable file)
Entry point 0x408000
There are 2 program headers, starting at offset 52
Program Headers:
Type Offset VirtAddr PhysAddr FileSiz MemSiz Flg Align
LOAD 0x001000 0x00408000 0x00408000 0x04000 0x04000 RWE 0x1000
LOAD 0x005000 0xe040c000 0x0040c000 0x583a84 0x5ccc70 RWE 0x1000
Section to Segment mapping:
Segment Sections...
00 .text.locore .data.locore
01 .text .eh_frame .wrs_build_vars .data .tls_data .tls_vars .bss
$ readelf -S /tmp/vx7
There are 13 section headers, starting at offset 0x588af8:
