This version worked,
thank you for your help!

Unfortunately that does not seem to work (or I use it wrong):
This procedure:
procedure _general_exception_handler; assembler; nostackframe; public
name '_GENERAL_EXCEPTION_HANDLER';
asm
.section reset
sdbbp 0;
.Lloopb:
b .Lloopb
end;
translates to:
.section .text.n_pic32mx1xxfxxxc_$$__general_exception_handler

.Le2:
.size PIC32MX1XXFXXXC_$$__GENERAL_EXCEPTION_HANDLER, .Le2 -

.Ll8:
which creates an assembler error:
/Users/ring/devel/fpc/rtl/units/mipsel-embedded/pic32mx1xxfxxxc.s:94:
Error: operation combines symbols in different segments
the error is from the .size line.

Hi, perhaps I am overseeing a simple solution for my problem:
On the pic32 there are two flash areas, one at 0x9d00 for the
main program and another at 0xbfc0 that is called Boot Flash.
On reset the program starts in the boot flash at the first address.
I have written the startup code for the chips now but I need to
distribute some procedures between the two memory areas, for
obvious reasons I must have some code at address 0xbfc0 or the
chip will not boot correctly ;-).
My thought was now to tweak the linker script in the same way the
original linker scripts of pic32 work:
MEMORY
{
kseg0_program_mem(rx) : ORIGIN = 0x9D00, LENGTH = 0x8
kseg1_boot_mem : ORIGIN = 0xBFC0, LENGTH = 0x490
}
SECTIONS
{
.reset _RESET_ADDR :
{
KEEP(*(.reset))
KEEP(*(.reset.startup))
} kseg1_boot_mem
}
In assembler I can then simply write:
.section .reset,code and
.section .reset.startup,code
and then the code, this will automagically end up in the
kseg1_boot_mem, but this does not work with the inline assembler.
Any ideas on how to do this the correct way? Is there something
more intelligent than to write a plain assembler file?
TnX,
Michael
You should be able to use
.section .reset
Try
procedure _general_exception_handler; assembler; nostackframe; public
name '_GENERAL_EXCEPTION_HANDLER';
asm
.section reset
sdbbp 0;
.Lloopb:
b .Lloopb
.text
end;
