Hey there
The u-boot build passes LDFLAGS from the environment straight to ld,
not to gcc as in e.g. automake builds. This means that if you include
a -Wl,foo in LDFLAGS, ld will barf:
ld: unrecognized option '-Wl,foo'
this happens to hit Ubuntu which sets LDFLAGS to
-Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions in dpkg-buildpackage pre-build environment
(to the dpkg-buildflags returned value).
(This problem currently only affects Ubuntu, but it would be nice to
fix it in Debian to avoid a permanent diff with Ubuntu and for people
rebuilding Debian sources, including u-boot, with custom LDFLAGS.)
There are IMO three ways to fix this:
* filter / fix problematic LDFLAGS on a per-package basis; this is the
rules snipped I added to the Ubuntu x-loader and u-boot packages:
# the upstream build passes LDFLAGS directly to ld instead of calling gcc for
# linking; so instead of passing -Wl,foo in LDFLAGS as in automake builds, one
# should set LDFLAGS to foo directly
comma := ,
LDFLAGS := $(patsubst -Wl$(comma)%,%,$(LDFLAGS))
* or you can unset LDFLAGS, assuming that this piece of code is too
special that distro-wide LDFLAGS usually don't apply (for instance
the Ubuntu kernel build ignores CFLAGS and LDFLAGS from the
environment because they are mostly for userspace)
* change the upstream build process to call cc for linking; I'm not
sure how open upstream would be to this though, and this needs
testing with other compilers
Cheers,

Source: u-boot
Binary: u-boot u-boot-tools uboot-mkimage
Architecture: source amd64 all
Version: 2010.12-2
Distribution: unstable
Urgency: low
Maintainer: Clint Adams <[email protected]>
Changed-By: Loïc Minier <[email protected]>
Description:
u-boot - A boot loader for embedded systems
u-boot-tools - companion tools for Das U-Boot
uboot-mkimage - generate kernel image for U-Boot (transitional package)
Closes: 607613 607618 608801
Changes:
u-boot (2010.12-2) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Avoid calling dpkg-architecture if DEB_HOST_ARCH is set.
* Misc refactoring of debian/rules.
- Split per architecture list of platform and targets into
debian/targets.
- Actually use INSTALL_FILE/INSTALL_DIR/INSTALL_PROGRAM.
- Add support for cross-builds; these will currently lack tools.
- Build board-specific u-boot files in a separate build dir from the
generic tools
* Fix handling of -Wl,foo LDFLAGS; the upstream build passes LDFLAGS
directly to ld instead of calling gcc for linking; so instead of passing
-Wl,foo in LDFLAGS as in automake builds, one should set LDFLAGS to foo
directly; add a snippet to strip -Wl, from LDFLAGS; alternatively, we
could do as in other special packages like the kernel and simply unset
LDFLAGS entirely; closes: #607613.
* Install and compress upstream mkimage manpage; based on a patch by
Marcin Juszkiewicz.
* Add a dummy uboot-mkimage package for upgrades from squeeze; based on a
patch by Marcin Juszkiewicz; closes: #607618.
* Add new patch, fix-definition-of-global_data-struct, from the upstream
x86 maintainer; fixes build of eNET board which breaks u-boot's build on
i386; closes: #608801.
* Workaround an upstream bug in distclean by removing include/asm/proc and
/arch explicitly for now; patch was sent upstream.
* Don't repeat Section: in binary package.
* Add myself to Uploaders.
* Split tools in u-boot-tools package.
* Drop board-specific tools; these are too dangerous; only ship mkimage for
now.
* Add igep0020 and omap3_beagle builds on armel
* Update snapshot.commit to the 2010.12 release contents; this avoids a
pointless diff with the tarball.
