To make relocation on arm working, the following changes are done:
|
||||
|
||||
At arch level: add linker flag -pie
|
||||
|
||||
This causes the linker to generate fixup tables .rel.dyn and .dynsym,
|
||||
which must be applied to the relocated image before transferring
|
||||
control to it.
|
||||
|
||||
These fixups are described in the ARM ELF documentation as type 23
|
||||
(program-base-relative) and 2 (symbol-relative)
|
||||
|
||||
At cpu level: modify linker file and add a relocation and fixup loop
|
||||
|
||||
the linker file must be modified to include the .rel.dyn and .dynsym
|
||||
tables in the binary image, and to provide symbols for the relocation
|
||||
code to access these tables
|
||||
|
||||
The relocation and fixup loop must be executed after executing
|
||||
board_init_f at initial location and before executing board_init_r
|
||||
at final location.
|
||||
|
||||
At board level:
|
||||
|
||||
dram_init(): bd pointer is now at this point not accessible, so only
|
||||
detect the real dramsize, and store it in gd->ram_size. Bst detected
|
||||
with get_ram_size().
|
||||
|
||||
TODO: move also dram initialization there on boards where it is possible.
|
||||
|
||||
Setup of the the bd_t dram bank info is done in the new function
|
||||
dram_init_banksize() called after bd is accessible.
|
||||
|
||||
At lib level:
|
||||
|
||||
Board.c code is adapted from ppc code
|
||||
|
||||
* WARNING ** WARNING ** WARNING ** WARNING ** WARNING ** WARNING ** WARNING *
|
||||
|
||||
Boards which are not fixed to support relocation will be REMOVED!
|
||||
|
||||
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
For boards which boot from nand_spl, it is possible to save one copy
|
||||
if CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE == relocation address! This prevents that uboot code
|
||||
is copied again in relocate_code().
|
||||
|
||||
example for the tx25 board:
|
||||
|
||||
a) cpu starts
|
||||
b) it copies the first page in nand to internal ram
|
||||
(nand_spl_code)
|
||||
c) end executes this code
|
||||
d) this initialize CPU, RAM, ... and copy itself to RAM
|
||||
(this bin must fit in one page, so board_init_f()
|
||||
don;t fit in it ... )
|
||||
e) there it copy u-boot to CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_DST and
|
||||
starts this image @ CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_START
|
||||
f) u-boot code steps through board_init_f() and calculates
|
||||
the relocation address and copy itself to it
|
||||
|
||||
If CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE == relocation address, the copying of u-boot
|
||||
in f) could be saved.
|
||||
|
||||
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
TODO
|
||||
|
||||
- fill in bd_t infos (check)
|
||||
- adapt all boards
|
||||
|
||||
- maybe adapt CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE (this must be checked from board maintainers)
|
||||
This *must* be done for boards, which boot from NOR flash
|
||||
|
||||
on other boards if CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE = relocation baseaddr, this saves
|
||||
one copying from u-boot code.
|
||||
|
||||
- new function dram_init_banksize() is actual board specific. Maybe
|
||||
we make a weak default function in arch/arm/lib/board.c ?
|
||||
|
||||
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Relocation with NAND_SPL (example for the tx25):
|
||||
|
||||
- cpu copies the first page from NAND to 0xbb000000 (IMX_NFC_BASE)
|
||||
and start with code execution on this address.
|
||||
|
||||
- The First page contains u-boot code from u-boot:nand_spl/nand_boot_fsl_nfc.c
|
||||
which inits the dram, cpu registers, reloacte itself to CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE and loads
|
||||
the "real" u-boot to CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_DST and starts execution
|
||||
@CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_START
|
||||
|
||||
- This u-boot does no RAM init, nor CPU register setup. Just look
|
||||
where it has to copy and relocate itself to this address. If
|
||||
relocate address = CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE (not the same, as the
|
||||
CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE from the nand_spl code), then there is no need
|
||||
to copy, just go on with bss clear and jump to board_init_r.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
How ELF relocations 23 and 2 work.
|
||||
|
||||
TBC

Debugging u-boot in RAM:
|
||||
(example on the qong board)
|
||||
|
||||
-----------------
|
||||
|
||||
a) start debugger
|
||||
|
||||
arm-linux-gdb u-boot
|
||||
|
||||
[hs@pollux u-boot]$ arm-linux-gdb u-boot

|

..
|
||||
(gdb)
|

-----------------
|

b) connect to target

c) discard symbol-file
|

(gdb) symbol-file

|

|

(gdb)
|
||||
|
||||
-----------------
|
||||
|
||||
d) load new symbol table:
|
||||
|
||||
(gdb) add-symbol-file u-boot 0x8ff08000
|
||||
add symbol table from file "u-boot" at
|
||||

|
||||
Reading symbols from /home/hs/celf/u-boot/u-boot...done.

|
||||
(gdb)
|
||||
|
||||
add-symbol-file u-boot 0x8ff08000
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
get this address from u-boot bdinfo command
|
||||
or get it from gd->relocaddr in gdb
|
||||
|
||||
=> bdinfo
|

rch_number = XXXXXXXXXX
|

boot_params = XXXXXXXXXX
|

DRAM bank = XXXXXXXXXX
|

|

|

ethaddr = XXXXXXXXXX
|

ip_addr = XXXXXXXXXX
|

baudrate = XXXXXXXXXX
|

TLB addr = XXXXXXXXXX
|
||||
relocaddr = 0x8ff08000
|

^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
reloc off = XXXXXXXXXX
|
||||
irq_sp = XXXXXXXXXX
|
||||

|
||||
FB base = XXXXXXXXXX
|
||||
|
||||
or interrupt execution by any means and re-load the symbols at the location
|
||||
specified by gd->relocaddr -- this is only valid after board_init_f.
|
||||
|
||||
(gdb) set $s = gd->relocaddr
|
||||
(gdb) symbol-file
|
||||
(gdb) add-symbol-file u-boot $s
|
||||
|
||||
Now you can use gdb as usual :-)
