Switch from archive libraries to partial linking

2010-11-17T20:02:18+00:00

Before this commit, weak symbols were not overridden by non-weak symbols
found in archive libraries when linking with recent versions of
binutils.  As stated in the System V ABI, "the link editor does not
extract archive members to resolve undefined weak symbols".

This commit changes all Makefiles to use partial linking (ld -r) instead
of creating library archives, which forces all symbols to participate in
linking, allowing non-weak symbols to override weak symbols as intended.
This approach is also used by Linux, from which the gmake function
cmd_link_o_target (defined in config.mk and used in all Makefiles) is
inspired.

The name of each former library archive is preserved except for
extensions which change from ".a" to ".o".  This commit updates
references accordingly where needed, in particular in some linker
scripts.

This commit reveals board configurations that exclude some features but
include source files that depend these disabled features in the build,
resulting in undefined symbols.  Known such cases include:
- disabling CMD_NET but not CMD_NFS;
- enabling CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT but not CONFIG_QE.

Replace CONFIG_RELOC_FIXUP_WORKS by CONFIG_NEEDS_MANUAL_RELOC

2010-10-29T19:32:07+00:00

By now, the majority of architectures have working relocation
support, so the few remaining architectures have become exceptions.
To make this more obvious, we make working relocation now the default
case, and flag the remaining cases with CONFIG_NEEDS_MANUAL_RELOC.

disk/part.c: 'usb storage' avoiding overflow when output capacity

2010-08-10T21:08:55+00:00

Before:
    Marvell>> usb storage
      Device 0: Vendor: StoreJet Rev:  Prod:  Transcend
                Type: Hard Disk
                Capacity: 28759.9 MB = 28.0 GB (488397168 x 512)
After:
    Marvell>> usb storage
      Device 0: Vendor: StoreJet Rev:  Prod:  Transcend
                Type: Hard Disk
                Capacity: 238475.1 MB = 232.8 GB (488397168 x 512)

FAT32: fix support for superfloppy-format (PBR)

2010-07-24T18:53:43+00:00

"Superfloppy" format (in U-Boot called PBR) did not work for FAT32 as
the file system type string is at a different location. Add support
for FAT32.

common: delete CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_VSPRINTF and CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_STRTOUL

2009-12-08T21:14:07+00:00

There is more and more usage of printing 64bit values,
so enable this feature generally, and delete the
CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_VSPRINTF and CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_STRTOUL
defines.

Conditionally perform common relocation fixups

2009-10-03T08:17:57+00:00

Add #ifdefs where necessary to not perform relocation fixups.  This
allows boards/architectures which support relocation to trim a decent
chunk of code.

Note that this patch doesn't add #ifdefs to architecture-specific code
which does not support relocation.
