However, defining those in the linker script will do the same thing since [0]. So let's remove the special sections from the linker scripts, the variable definitions from sections.c and define them as a symbols. It's worth noting that _image_binary_end symbol is now redundant and can be removed in the future. - SPL The .end section has been removed from the new binary [ 5] .end PROGBITS 00000000fffdf488 000000000002f488 0 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0 1 [0000000000000003]: WRITE, ALLOC $~ bloat-o-meter kria_old/spl/u-boot-spl krina_new/spl/u-boot-spl add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/0 up/down: 0/0 (0) Function old new delta Total: Before=115980, After=115980, chg +0.00% $~ readelf -sW kria_old/u-boot kria_new/u-boot | grep -w _end 12047: 000000000813a0f0 0 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 11 _end 12047: 000000000813a118 0 NOTYPE GLOBAL DEFAULT 11 _end $~ readelf -sW kria_old/spl/u-boot-spl kria_new/spl/u-boot-spl | grep -w _end 1605: 00000000fffdf488 0 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 5 _end 1603: 00000000fffdf498 0 NOTYPE GLOBAL DEFAULT 4 _end $~ readelf -sW old/u-boot new/u-boot | grep -w _end 8847: 0000000000103710 0 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 11 _end 8847: 0000000000103738 0 NOTYPE GLOBAL DEFAULT 11 _end $~ readelf -sW old_v7/u-boot new_v7/u-boot | grep -w _end 10638: 000da824 0 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 10 _end 10637: 000da84c 0 NOTYPE GLOBAL DEFAULT 10 _end - For both QEMU instances $~ bloat-o-meter old/u-boot new/u-boot add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 1/0 up/down: 20/0 (20) Function old new delta version_string 50 70 +20 Total: Before=656915, After=656935, chg +0.00% [0] binutils commit 6b3b0ab89663 ("Make linker assigned symbol dynamic only for shared object") Signed-off-by: Ilias Apalodimas --- diff --git a/arch/arm/cpu/arm1136/u-boot-spl.lds b/arch/arm/cpu/arm1136/u-boot-spl.lds index f83988fd7e..b7af29183a 100644 --- a/arch/arm/cpu/arm1136/u-boot-spl.lds +++ b/arch/arm/cpu/arm1136/u-boot-spl.lds @@ -33,11 +33,7 @@ SECTIONS .data : { *(SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT(.data*)) } >.sram . = ALIGN(4);
