Looking at this more, I built commit cca6076 "tegra20: Remove armv4t build flags" which was the last patch in the series that enabled SPL on Tegra, and it overflows even there: Configuring for ventana board... text data bss dec hex filename 226085 4384 274228 504697 7b379 ./u-boot 13857 153 4516 18526 485e ./spl/u-boot-spl u-boot/master currently has: Configuring for ventana board... text data bss dec hex filename 233579 4432 274368 512379 7d17b ./u-boot 14382 201 4520 19103 4a9f ./spl/u-boot-spl So, there is slight growth, but mainly I think we've just been getting lucky. Also, the overflow might possibly only have been exposed by the recent serial rework; when I found the problem the serial rework caused on Tegra, Allen mentioned that the missing BSS clearing hadn't been a problem before since no global variables were used, but the serial rework caused some to be. _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
