I've seen them posted internally at Freescale for a couple months now. Some BSPs are using them. I don't think anyone, besides me, has tried to get any rodata fixes committed upstream. Maybe the thought of fixing 500 other boards they know nothing about is scaring them away? Some links: http://www.bitshrine.org/gpp/u-boot-1.1.3-mpc832x-rodata-str-1.patch http://www.bitshrine.org/gpp/u-boot-1.1.3-mpc8349itx-rodata-str-1.patch http://www.bitshrine.org/gpp/u-boot-1.3.2-mpc8272ads-rodata-str-1.patch IMHO, the way I've done it is better. _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
