[U-Boot-Users] 85xx: Not enough room for program headers

[U-Boot-Users] 85xx: Not enough room for program headers

[Rafal Jaworowski]

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:

-> ./MAKEALL MPC8555CDS
Configuring for MPC8555CDS board...
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
 196852   15284   26492  238628   3a424 ./u-boot

Which toolchain did you use?

Best regards,

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
 194515   16028   26488  237031   39de7 ./u-boot

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,

Wolfgang Denk

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