Hi,
I have added a new platform into TrustedFirmware-A which is based on a single A53 core.Currently, only compiling BL1 and when the secure ROM and SRAM sections are located on the same 4GB space it compiles and link OK:
When the secure ROM and SRAM base addresses are separated with a larger gap (>4GB) then I am getting the following error:
(.text.asm.bl1_entrypoint+0x90): relocation truncated to fit: R_AARCH64_ADR_PREL_PG_HI21 against symbol `__BSS_START__' defined in .bss section in bl1.elf
So my question is:Is that a real limitation of the compiler (or A53) or is there a way to workaround it with some compiler switches or build macros on the TrustedFirmware build?
I am building the TrustedFirmware on Ubuntu 18.04 with cross compiler from Linaro
