You could just use a 'tail call' and make this, +ENTRY(soc_init) + b cpu_init_cp15 +ENDPROC(soc_init) Or even as the code follows just add a duplicate label, so 'soc_init' is a weak version of 'cpu_init_cp15'? This gives no additional code in a final binary. I guess it depends on how the generic 'soc_init' might be modified in the future? If we put code after the 'cpu_init_cp15' in the generic version, then we should keep saving the 'lr' into 'r9'; also 'cpu_init_cp15' should never use 'r9'. This maybe good to document (or someone may break your sunxi code). >+ >+/************************************************************************* >+ * > * cpu_init_cp15 > * > * Setup CP15 registers (cache, MMU, TLBs).
