Hi Eugen,
I built new binaries with CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD=y for sam9x60_curiosity,
sama5d29_curiosity, sama7g5ek and new sam9x75_curiosity board.
I used the latest u-boot/master branch for this test.
I noticed that the file size of the binaries have beed reduced with aprox
150KiB due to CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD=y.
After flashing the new binaries on these boards I can confirm that on all
boards the linux kernel was booted properly from mmc, qspi-flash, nand-flash
and usb.
I tested using bootm and bootz commands.
Thank you Mihai,
Tom, Sean, are you okay with this going in the next merge window ?
It is definitely not a fix, so that would be the best.
Eugen
Best regards,
Mihai Sain

Several AT91 boards are quite close to their SPL size limit. For
example, sama5d27_wlsom1_ek_mmc is just 173 bytes short of its limit
and doesn't even fit with older GCCs.
All AT91 processors should have thumb support. Enable
SYS_THUMB_BUILD. This shrinks SPL by around 30%.

This has been BUILD TESTED ONLY!
We in turn need this for Sean's other cleanup series to go in. Is this
OK? Would it be safer if it was only for CPU_V7A ? I do have
recollections of thumb being sometimes buggy prior to v7a cores. Thanks!
Hi Tom,
I would like this to be tested on a few boards at least. There are boards with
Cortex A5, A7 and ARM926 which are important, one of each of them and booting
Linux should be enough I think.
Nicolas, Aubin ? I remember you guys have also a CI tool that is fairly easy to
use if you just push a branch/commit.
+ Mihai as well.
Eugen
