[U-Boot-Users] moving bss outside of the image?

[Kumar Gala]

Is there any concern with moving .bss outside of the image?  On 85xx  
the images have historically been a fixed size (512k) and the .bss has  
always lived inside of that region. We are now getting to a point  
that .text + .data + .bss exceeds 512k.  Its easy enough to move .bss  
right pass the 512k boundary and wanted to see if anyone can think of  
a reason not to do this.

Also, any cute ways of doing this in the linker script?

Right now if the TEXT_BASE is 0xeff80000 I'm doing:

   . = ADDR(.text) + 0x80000;

   __bss_start = .;
   .bss (NOLOAD)       :
   {
    *(.sbss) *(.scommon)
    *(.dynbss)
    *(.bss)
    *(COMMON)
   }
