This one is a conundrum. Using 2010q1, building omap3_evm causes a linker warning "arm-none-linux-gnueabi-ld: u-boot: section .bss vma 0x8003e8f0 overlaps previous sections" while building omap3_beagle does not cause any linker warning.
Both boards use the same armv7 u-boot.lds and have a .bss which is way bigger than the .rel.dyn plus .dynsym sections that it does overlay. IOW, they have a similar layout for .rel.dyn, .dynsym and .bss, but one gets the warning and one does not. The one difference a readelf shows is that for beagle, there is only one segment: 00 .text .rodata .hash .data .got.plt .u_boot_cmd .rel.dyn .dynsym While for evm there is 00 .text .rodata .hash .data .got.plt .u_boot_cmd .rel.dyn .bss 01 .dynsym Note that .bss has appeared in segment 00 for evm, whereas it was absent for beagle, and that .dynsym was rejected to a second segment -- why? I don't know. Note: I've tried with putting input sections .rel.dyn and .dynsym into a single output section .rel.dyn: this makes the second segment disappear, but for evm the warning remains and .bss remains in the segment.
