[Bug 1648267] Re: Regression with Zesty binutils building u-boot

[Joel Stanley]

you can reproduce with the following:

git clone git://git.denx.de/u-boot
cd u-boot
CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- make rock2_defconfig
CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- make 

I spoke with Alan Modra, and the current theory is that it needs to be
worked around in u-boot. I've submitted a patch there:

Title:
  Regression with Zesty binutils building u-boot

Status in binutils package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  With GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.27.51.20161202 (arm-linux-
  gnueabi), building my u-boot target fails:

    LD      u-boot
  arm-linux-gnueabi-ld.bfd: u-boot: Not enough room for program headers, try linking with -N
  arm-linux-gnueabi-ld.bfd: final link failed: Bad value
  Makefile:1187: recipe for target 'u-boot' failed

  If I instad use the GNU ld (2.27-9ubuntu1+9) 2.27 (arm-none-eabi), the
  same code links without issue.
