Hi,

seems that Patch0 does not receive Mailinglist and my answer to it got blocked...

i get:

arch/arm/lib/bootm.c: In function ‘arch_lmb_reserve’:
arch/arm/lib/bootm.c:67:8: error: ‘bi_dram’ undeclared (first use in this function); did you mean ‘blk_dread’?
   if (!bi_dram[bank].size || sp < gd->bd->bi_dram[bank].start)
        ^~~~~~~
        blk_dread

which i fixed this way:

diff --git a/arch/arm/lib/bootm.c b/arch/arm/lib/bootm.c
index e9a333af0e..48bb41249e 100644
--- a/arch/arm/lib/bootm.c

        /* adjust sp by 4K to be safe */
        sp -= 4096;
        for (bank = 0; bank < CONFIG_NR_DRAM_BANKS; bank++) {
-               if (!bi_dram[bank].size || sp < gd->bd->bi_dram[bank].start)
+               if (!gd->bd->bi_dram[bank].size || sp < gd->bd->bi_dram[bank].start)
                        continue;
                /* Watch out for RAM at end of address space! */
                bank_end = gd->bd->bi_dram[bank].start +

after that at least sp_start is protected

same with relocaddr -x

${bootenv};
