Hi. I am getting data abort while using original u-boot.lds file.
If i allign bss to 4 bytes rather than using " .bss __rel_dyn_start
(OVERLAY) : {".
With existing code i am getting odd address leading to data abort.
PFA the patch.

Is this a right approach to fix the data abort?

regards,
Chander

No, this is not correct.  You should keep the OVERLAY part.

Try instead:

	. = ALIGN(4);
	.bss __rel_dyn_start (OVERLAY) : {
