From 5bd743ad60b85f005235aac2435563b168e012e3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thorsten Glaser Date: Thu, 6 Jan 2011 00:22:34 +0000 Subject: Add experimental code to self-relocate vmlinuz on e.g. brcm MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit This is needed for the following reason: our memory layout looks like this: | |vmlinux | |CFE| * | | | |vmlinuz | | ^ Since CFE can only load to the spot marked with ‘^’ anyway, we load vmlinub.elf there which is basically a big rodata blob containing vmlinuz and minimal code moving it to the location pointed with vmlinuz above. Another solution would be to use CFE’s “boot -raw” to place it on the location marked with ‘*’ above (but the CFE location and size are dynamic, and since it insists on loading to 0x80001000 anyway, this point is virtually moot).
