[U-Boot] Does U-boot support ASLR?

Dear Jason,

No it does not, and there are no plans to support such a thing.

Also, I think there was a presentation at one of the last Black Hat
conferences that showed that address space randomization makes
clracking systems _easier_.  So I don't see any good reason even to
think about adding such a thing.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
