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.

Ensure that __got_start points to top of the `.got', and __got_end points
to bottom as well, so that we never fail to count num_got_entries.

Patch by Haavard Skinnemoen, 6 Sep 2006 16:23:02 +0200
This patch adds common infrastructure code for the Atmel AVR32
architecture. See doc/README.AVR32 for details.
Signed-off-by: Haavard Skinnemoen <hskinnemoen@atmel.com>
Modifications are based on the linux kernel approach and
support two use cases:
1) Add O= to the make command line
'make O=/tmp/build all'
2) Set environement variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location
'export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build'
'make'
The second approach can also be used with a MAKEALL script
'export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build'
'./MAKEALL'
Command line 'O=' setting overrides BUILD_DIR environent variable.
When none of the above methods is used the local build is performed and
the object files are placed in the source directory.

Patches by Richard Klingler, June 11th 2005:
Add standalone application to change SMC91C111 MAC addresses,
see examples/README.smc91111_eeprom

Add Support for Flash AT49BV6416 for AT91RM9200DK board
"revive" U-Boot support for old Motorola MPC860ADS board
* Patch by Cam(ilo?), 03 Dec 2003:
make examples build even with broken Montavista objcopy
* Patch by Pavel Bartusek, 27 Nov 2003:
fix conversion problem with "bootretry" evironment variable
- Added Motorola CPU 8540/8560 support (cpu/85xx)
- Added Motorola MPC8540ADS board support (board/mpc8540ads)
- Added Motorola MPC8560ADS board support (board/mpc8560ads)
* Minor code cleanup
* Make 5200 reset command _really_ reset the board, without running
any other code after it
* Fix flash mapping and display on P3G4 board
* Patch by Kyle Harris, 15 Jul 2003:
- add support for Intel IXP425 CPU
- add support for IXDP425 eval board
- add support for Altera Nios-32 CPU
- add support for Nios Cyclone Development Kit (DK-1C20)
* Patch by Steven Scholz, 29 Sep 2003:
- A second parameter for bootm overwrites the load address for
"Standalone Application" images.
- bootm sets environment variable "filesize" to the resulting
(uncompressed) data length for "Standalone Application" images
when autostart is set to "no". Now you can do something like
if bootm $fpgadata $some_free_ram ; then
fpga load 0 $some_free_ram $filesize
fi
* Patch by Denis Peter, 25 Sept 2003:
add support for the MIP405 Rev. C board
* Provide consistent interface to standalone applications to access
the 'global_data' structure
Provide a doc/README.standalone more useful to users/developers.
* Make IceCube MGT5100 FEC driver work
applications: instead of using (PPC-specific) system calls we now
use a jump table; please see doc/README.standalone for details
* Patch by Dave Westwood, 24 Jul 2003:
added support for Unity OS (a proprietary OS)
- remove trailing white space, trailing empty lines, C++ comments, etc.
