I think we need to be adjusting LDFLAGS_$(SPL_BIN) in scripts/Makefile.spl for safety here as well since if CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE=0 (which seems just as possible as CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE=0) we would hit the same condition.

It's pretty odd to me that linking at 0x0 (or not) is what's causing new binutils to throw this particular error out there.

Thanks! That is the correct solution. Nick's patch for https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20815 isn't going to be reverted as the ELF standard is quite clear regarding PT_PHDR. Yes, there was a bug in the patch adding more space than needed, fixed 2016-11-30 with binutils git commit e9a38e0f528, but even after that patch more space is needed than before.

Since Binutils 1a9ccd70f9a7[1] u-boot will not link targets that set CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE=0 with the following error: 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 The issue can reproduced the bad binutils and the rock2_defconfig target. This issue was also encountered by the powerpc kernel[2], with the fix being to pass --no-dynamic-linker for linkers newer than 2.26 when this flag was introduced. The option tells ld that the PIE or shared lib does not need loaded program headers. Ubuntu Zesty's Binutils 2.27.51.20161202 hits this error.
