I have been doing some work to get U-Boot running on a samsung S3C2440
based SBC (QQ2440). I experienced several issues getting the board
running including "raise: Signal # 8 caught" errors being printed to
the console. After a bit of debugging with a JTAG debugger I found
the problems were due to arch/arm/cpu/arm920t/s3c24x0/timer.c using
several global variables prior to relocation to RAM. I noticed that
the global variable .bss section is shared with the .rel.text section.
Since the .rel.text section is required by the relocation code, I
assume that .bss global variables cannot be used until after
relocation?
After studying several other timer.c files I developed the following
patch which uses the global data struct to store the global variables.
I also restructured some of the code based on structure of the other
timer.c files. I have confirmed it works correctly on the SBC I have.
Regards
Mark Norman
The s3c24x0 timer has been updated to use the global_data struct.
Restructured code based on other timer.c files.
Updated comments and several parameters.
