Ah, I know understand what you are trying to achieve - No, my code does not allow for in-flash relocation. My code processes the ELF relocation structures rel.got (which has pointers into .got), got.plt (which is where the location of .got is retrieved at run-time), rel.dyn (pointers into other sections other than .got), .dynamic and .dynsym I must admit, I do not know why there are so many sections which need to be patched - I originally thought that only .got would need modifying, but the rabbit-hole is much deeper Regards, G _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
