Hi Alex,

Some times gcc may generate data that is then used within code that may
be part of an efi runtime section. That data could be jump tables,
constants or strings.

In order to make sure we catch these, we need to ensure that gcc emits
them into a section that we can relocate together with all the other
efi runtime bits. This only works if the -ffunction-sections and
-fdata-sections flags are passed and the efi runtime functions are
in a section that starts with ".text".

Up to now we had all efi runtime bits in sections that did not
interfere with the normal section naming scheme, but this forces
us to do so. Hence we need to move the efi_loader text/data/rodata
sections before the global *(.text*) catch-all section.

With this patch in place, we should hopefully have an easier time
to extend the efi runtime functionality in the future.

I missed this at the time, probably thinking the subject made it sound
innocuous. There is no 'sandbox:' tag.

This seems to break sandbox in a pretty strange way:

Also the commit message suggests that this patch changes sandbox to
use --gc-sections, which is not obvious from the subject. I think that
should be a separate commit and in fact it should really be separate
commits for each arch, I think. That might help people notice it...

I only noticed now since the EFI pull request has landed.
Can you try my bss patch really quick? Maybe we're just overwriting gd.

Alex

This patch breaks efi-x86_app_defconfig. The EFI application no longer
boots. I was testing on top of u-boot/master.

If I do:

diff --git a/arch/x86/config.mk b/arch/x86/config.mk
index 586e11a..fc119ec 100644
--- a/arch/x86/config.mk
+++ b/arch/x86/config.mk
@@ -24,7 +24,6 @@ endif
  ifeq ($(IS_32BIT),y)
  PLATFORM_CPPFLAGS += -march=i386 -m32
  # TODO: These break on x86_64; need to debug further
-PLATFORM_RELFLAGS += -fdata-sections
  else
  PLATFORM_CPPFLAGS += $(if $(CONFIG_SPL_BUILD),,-fpic) -fno-common -m64
  endif

Then it boots again. Can you please take a look?

Regards,
Bin
Please can we revert the offending patch quickly for the release? I am
not comfortable with the sandbox changes either (data-sections, etc.).

I agree since it's getting close to the release date.

I have a fix ready for you. Will send it out soon. Basically the linker scripts only included .bss, not .bss*.
