[U-Boot] ARM: Warning with current master

[Matthias Weißer]

Hi

after pulling the latest changes I get the following warning during 
linking of arm boards (I tested jadecpu and tx25).

arm-unknown-eabi-ld: warning: creating a DT_TEXTREL in object.

Must have something to do with the latest ELF based relocation changes 
but I am not an expert in these tool chain related issues to dig a bit 
deeper into this issue.

I didn't test if the image runs on the target.

gcc version is 4.3.4

Hmm... Which toolchain do you use?

I build it myself using crosstools-ng

$ arm-unknown-eabi-gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: arm-unknown-eabi
Configured with: ~/ctdev/targets/src/gcc-4.3.4/configure

Hope this helps.

Which exact tool chain is this?

Building with ELDK 4.2 works fine:

-> ./MAKEALL jadecpu tx25
Configuring for jadecpu board...
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
 197763   19360  266416  483539   760d3 ./u-boot
Configuring for tx25 board...
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
 158718    8668   37120  204506   31eda ./u-boot

--------------------- SUMMARY ----------------------------
Boards compiled: 2

This is an ld, not gcc, issue. What does arm-unknown-eabi-ld -V produce?

$ arm-unknown-eabi-ld -V
GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.19.1
   Supported emulations:
    armelf

Thanks for your time

Hmm... I use the ELDK toolchain and it says:

GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.17.90.20070806
   Supported emulations:
    armelf_linux_eabi
    armelfb_linux_eabi

Maybe you need to look up your build documentation on how to add these 
emulations, at least armelf_linux_eabi (the armelfb should be useless 
for u-boot).
