Dear José Miguel Gonçalves,
Jumping to board_init_r is not performed due to a bug on address
computation.
Is your CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE configured correctly? I don't detect any
misbehavior on my arm926 boards.
Maybe because you are not using it to build an SPL?
I do ... and I use CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE properly .
Please check the same chunk of code in other start.S for arm1176 and
armv7. They have the same code that I put for arm926ejs.
Please wait and please first explain what is the issue.
The issue is what I've explained in the patch comments.
"Jumping to board_init_r is not performed due to a bug on address computation."
Ok, I don't know how to replicate the bug from this comment or what effects it
causes or ... well, anything. So please, try to be more elaborate in your patch
description next time. Anyway ..
Same for me - I have no idea what you are trying to fix here. In my
SPL configuration, _TEXT_BASE and _start point to the same location,
so please explain why they are different on your board.
They are different because of how start.S is implemented in arm926ejs.
In my SPL map file I see:
.text 0x0000000000000000 0xc24
arch/arm/cpu/arm926ejs/start.o(.text)
.text 0x0000000000000000 0x120
arch/arm/cpu/arm926ejs/start.o
0x0000000000000000 _start
0x0000000000000040 _TEXT_BASE
0x0000000000000044 _bss_start_ofs
0x0000000000000048 _bss_end_ofs
0x000000000000004c _end_ofs
0x0000000000000050 IRQ_STACK_START_IN
0x0000000000000074 relocate_code
Without this
change the code never reaches board_init_r in the SPL and I think I have
all the configurations correctly set.
I wonder why you'd ever want to reach board_init_r in the SPL. SPL is there only
to load the real U-Boot from whatever media, so you usually use either NAND SPL
or something like that.
Marek, going into board_init_r is fine for SPL, for example the
davinci SPL does some hw initialization in board_init_f and then loads
u-boot in board_init_r.
Regards, Christian
What do you boot the rest from ?
If the bug is not from here please
suggest me what I need to change in the configuration in order to
correctly boot my board.
Relocation offsets are not needed when building SPL.
Do they cause any trouble?
No! Just not needed.
