Subject: Re: [PATCH][CFT] bring ARM memory layout in line with the documented behaviour From: "Anders Larsen" Date: Thu, 18 Sep 2003 14:15:21 +0200 To: Wolfgang Denk ... >I still see references to _armboot_start, _armboot_end_data, and >_armboot_end - which role do these play now?

Furthermore, the startup code (cpu//start.S) internally uses another variable (_TEXT_BASE) with the same content as _armboot_start. I agree that this mess should be cleaned up.
