Hi all,
I have been trying to control strictly the order in which modules are
ordered within memory, beacuse I am desining an embedded system with
two kinds of memory: one fast and one slow.
When I try to put the modules within a library into a concrete memory
area, I find it impossible to refer to them, so I have to refer them
by wild cards. This is a problem, beacuse wildcards apply to "the rest
of the modules", and what I want is some libraries to be in fast
memory and some others in slow memory.
Some thing like that:
MEMORY
{
fast_ram : ORIGIN = 0x00000000, LENGTH = 16K
slow_ram : ORIGIN = 0x40000000, LENGTH = 512K
}
ENTRY(_start)
/* Define the sections, and where they are mapped in memory */
SECTIONS
{
kernel : {
__text_start = .;
crt0.o(.text)
crtinit.o(.text)
main.o(.text);
memory_manager.o(.text);
libxil.a(*)(.text); /* this is the problem */
__text_end = .;
} > fast_ram
program : {
__text_start = .;
logl.o(.text);
application.o(.text);
snmp_agent.o(.text);
libtcp.a(*)(.text); /* this is the problem */
__text_end = .;
} > fast_ram
}
I have been unable to find the answer in LD manuals.
TIA
