With recent toolchain versions, some boards would not build because
or errors like this one (here for ocotea board when building with
ELDK 4.2 beta):
ppc_4xx-ld: section .bootpg [fffff000 -> fffff23b] overlaps section .bss [fffee900 -> fffff8ab]
For many boards, the .bss section is big enough that it wraps around
at the end of the address space (0xFFFFFFFF), so the problem will not
be visible unless you use a 64 bit tool chain for development. On
some boards however, changes to the code size (due to different
optimizations) we bail out with section overlaps like above.
The fix is to add the NOLOAD attribute to the .bss and .sbss
sections, telling the linker that .bss does not consume any space in
the image.

This is a compatibility step that allows both the older form
and the new form to co-exist for a while until the older can
be removed entirely.
All transformations are of the form:
Before:
#if (CONFIG_COMMANDS & CFG_CMD_AUTOSCRIPT)
After:
#if (CONFIG_COMMANDS & CFG_CMD_AUTOSCRIPT) || defined(CONFIG_CMD_AUTOSCRIPT)

Modifications are based on the linux kernel approach and
support two use cases:
1) Add O= to the make command line
'make O=/tmp/build all'
2) Set environement variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location
'export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build'
'make'
The second approach can also be used with a MAKEALL script
'export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build'
'./MAKEALL'
Command line 'O=' setting overrides BUILD_DIR environent variable.
When none of the above methods is used the local build is performed and
the object files are placed in the source directory.
code and in SoC code). Boards using the old way have CFG_NAND_LEGACY and
BOARDLIBS = drivers/nand_legacy/libnand_legacy.a added. Build breakage for
NETTA.ERR and NETTA_ISDN - will go away when the new NAND support is
implemented for these boards.
* Patch by Sascha Hauer, 28 Jun:
- add generic support for Motorola i.MX architecture
- add support for mx1ads, mx1fs2 and scb9328 boards
* Patches by Marc Leeman, 23 Jul 2004:
- Add define for the PCI/Memory Buffer Configuration Register
- corrected comments in cpu/mpc824x/cpu_init.c
* Add support for multiple serial interfaces
(for example to allow modem dial-in / dial-out)
sticks (including FAT / VFAT filesystem support)
* Add SL811 Host Controller Interface driver for USB
* Add CFG_I2C_EEPROM_ADDR_OVERFLOW desription to README
* Patch by Pantelis Antoniou, 19 Apr 2004:
Allow to use shell style syntax (i. e. ${var} ) with standard parser.
Minor patches for Intracom boards.
* Patch by Christian Pell, 19 Apr 2004:
cleanup support for CF/IDE on PCMCIA for PXA25X
- add support for a new version of an Intracom board and fix
various other things on others.
- add verify support to the crc32 command (define
CONFIG_CRC32_VERIFY to enable it)
- fix FEC driver for MPC8xx systems:
1. fix compilation problems for boards that use dynamic
allocation of DPRAM
2. shut down FEC after network transfers
- HUSH parser fixes:
1. A new test command was added. This is a simplified version of
the one in the bourne shell.
2. A new exit command was added which terminates the current
executing script.
3. Fixed handing of $? (exit code of last executed command)
- add auto-complete support to the U-Boot CLI
- add support for NETTA and NETPHONE boards; fix NETVIA board
* Patch by Yuli Barcohen, 28 Mar 2004:
- Add support for MPC8272 family including MPC8247/8248/8271/8272
- Add support for MPC8272ADS evaluation board (another flavour of MPC8260ADS)
- Change configuration method for MPC8260ADS family
