In binutils-2.25, the _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ symbols defined by PROVIDE in
u-boot.lds overrides the linker built-in symbols
(https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=commitdiff;
h=b893397a4b1316610f49819344817715e4305de9),
so the linker is treating _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ as a definition into the
.reloc section.
To align with the change of binutils-2.25, the _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ symbol
should not be defined in sections, and the symbols in linker generated .got
section should be used(https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2008-09/
msg00122.html)
Fixed the following build errors with binutils-2.25:

CONFIG_BOARDDIR is not referenced in these linker scripts.

Note this is a tree-wide change affecting multiple architectures.
At present we use __bss_start, but mostly __bss_end__. This seems
inconsistent and in a number of places __bss_end is used instead.
Change to use __bss_end for the BSS end symbol throughout U-Boot. This
makes it possible to use the asm-generic/sections.h file on all
archs.

Refactor linker-generated array code so that symbols
which were previously linker-generated are now compiler-
generated. This causes relocation records of type
R_ARM_ABS32 to become R_ARM_RELATIVE, which makes
code which uses LGA able to run before relocation as
well as after.
Note: this affects more than ARM targets, as linker-
lists span possibly all target architectures, notably
PowerPC.

GOT is now handled the way the main u-boot.lds does it. Without this,
the boot hangs when built with newer GCC (since 4.6). Older toolchains
hid the issue by converting -fpic to -fPIC.

Add NAND support (including spl) on IFC, such as is found on the p1010.
Note that using hardware ECC on IFC with small-page NAND (which is what
comes on the p1010rdb reference board) means there will be insufficient
OOB space for JFFS2, since IFC does not support 1-bit ECC. UBI should
work, as it does not use OOB for anything but ECC.
When hardware ECC is not enabled in CSOR, software ECC is now used.

As discussed on the list, move "arch/ppc" to "arch/powerpc" to
better match the Linux directory structure.
Please note that this patch also changes the "ppc" target in
MAKEALL to "powerpc" to match this new infrastructure. But "ppc"
is kept as an alias for now, to not break compatibility with
scripts using this name.

A recent gcc added a new unaligned rodata section called '.rodata.str1.1',
which needs to be added the the linker script. Instead of just adding this
one section, we use a wildcard ".rodata*" to get all rodata linker section
gcc has now and might add in the future.
However, '*(.rodata*)' by itself will result in sub-optimal section
ordering. The sections will be sorted by object file, which causes extra
padding between the unaligned rodata.str.1.1 of one object file and the
aligned rodata of the next object file. This is easy to fix by using the
SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT command.
This patch has not be tested one most of the boards modified. Some boards
have a linker script that looks something like this:
*(.text)
. = ALIGN(16);
*(.rodata)
*(.rodata.str1.4)
*(.eh_frame)
I change this to:
*(.text)
. = ALIGN(16);
*(.eh_frame)
*(SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT(SORT_BY_NAME(.rodata*)))
This means the start of rodata will no longer be 16 bytes aligned.
However, the boundary between text and rodata/eh_frame is still aligned to
16 bytes, which is what I think the real purpose of the ALIGN call is.

This patch will create a new board, SIMPC8313, from Sheldon Instruments. This
board boots from NAND devices and is configureable for either large or small
page devices. The board supports non-soldered DDR2, one ethernet port, a
Marvell 88E1118 PHY, and PCI host support. The board also has a FPGA connected
to the eLBC providing glue logic to a TMS320C67xx DSP.

Note that with older board revisions, NAND boot may only work after a
power-on reset, and not after a warm reset. I don't have a newer board
to test on; if you have a board with a 33MHz crystal, please let me know
if it works after a warm reset.

With recent toolchain versions, some boards would not build because
or errors like this one (here for ocotea board when building with
ELDK 4.2 beta):
ppc_4xx-ld: section .bootpg [fffff000 -> fffff23b] overlaps section .bss [fffee900 -> fffff8ab]
For many boards, the .bss section is big enough that it wraps around
at the end of the address space (0xFFFFFFFF), so the problem will not
be visible unless you use a 64 bit tool chain for development. On
some boards however, changes to the code size (due to different
optimizations) we bail out with section overlaps like above.
The fix is to add the NOLOAD attribute to the .bss and .sbss
sections, telling the linker that .bss does not consume any space in
the image.

Patch by Stefan Roese, 23 May 2006
[This patch does not include cpu/ixp/npe/IxNpeMicrocode.c which still
sufferes from licensing issues. Blame Intel.]
ARM memory layout fixes: the abort-stack is now set up in the
correct RAM area, and the BSS is zeroed out as it should be.
Furthermore, the magic variables 'armboot_end' and 'armboot_end_data'
of the linker scripts are replaced by '__bss_start' and '_end',
resp., which is a further step to eliminate unnecessary differences
between the implementation of the CPU architectures.
