Here is the compiled code with your suggestion: > = > ldr r2, .L9+8 > b .L2 > .L3: > ldr r3, [sp, #4] > add r3, r3, #1 > str r3, [sp, #4] > .L2: > ldr r3, [sp, #4] > cmp r3, r2 > ble .L3 > = > With L9+8: > .word 16383 > = > But the stack pointer is initialised only in barebox_arm_entry() which > is called later. So I decided that a two instructions assembly loop was > the simplest solution. This may happen because the function gets too complex and gcc starts using the stack in this case. Try rewriting the lowlevel stuff as: static void __noinline mx31_moboard_startup(void) { /* Put setup here */ } void __bare_init __naked barebox_arm_reset_vector(void) { arm_cpu_lowlevel_init(); arm_setup_stack(MX31_IRAM_BASE_ADDR + MX31_IRAM_SIZE - 12); mx31_moboard_startup(); } With this you can use the stack and should be on the safe side.
