Calling objdump -d on the PBL ELF file will not disassemble the instructions comprising __barebox_arm64_head and instead will just print a hexdump. This is because we use linker magic to get the section in front of the text segment and GAS fails to detect that __barebox_arm64_head too is of function type. This is no longer the case with ENDPROC as it uses the GAS .type directive to explicitly mark a symbol as being a function: #define ENDPROC(name) \ .type name, @function; \ END(name) This only has effect on the ELF and introduces no functional change for the objcopied image.
