I ran git bisect to detect it. f75dd58 was a known to be clean commit before adding your patches. > The problem seems to be due to these lines in the .lds file for the board: > > net/libnet.o (.text*) > drivers/rtc/librtc.o (.text*) > > . = env_offset; > common/env_embedded.o (.text*) > > The env_offset is probably too small as the net code has increased in > size by about 600 bytes over the year. The question is - why does your patch increase the code size? These boards do not enable the new tftpput feature, so they should not be affected. > There are other things that can be done in net to reduce code size. I'm not struggeling for each and every byte, but your patches here should not add code size to any boards that do not enable this new feature.
