[U-Boot] [PATCH v4 2/9] x86: Allow excluding reset vector code from u-boot

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Mon Nov 26 07:12:09 CET 2012


From: Gabe Black <gabeblack at chromium.org>

When running from coreboot we don't want this code.

This version works by ifdef-ing out all of the code that would go
into those sections and all the code that refers to it. The sections are
then empty, and the linker will either leave them empty for the loader
to ignore or remove them entirely.

Changes in v4:
- Use CONFIG_SYS_X86_RESET_VECTOR instead CONFIG_NO_RESET_CODE
- Add note about CONFIG_SYS_X86_RESET_VECTOR to README

Changes in v3:
- Fix incorrect repeated line in Makefile

Changes in v2:
- Put CONFIG_NO_RESET_CODE into Makefile instead of source files
