Hi, I want to be able to update the RedBoot from RedBoot. So I need to copy a short code from RedBoot away into RAM, disable interrupts and run it to flash the new RedBoot, then do a verify and reboot to the new one.
That code has to be linked with offsets in RAM, but needs to be stored in flash. Unfortunately I am not really a guru in GNU ld and its scripts. Is there any example on how to link a code for one address and direct the section somewhere else in the final image? I've looked up some ROMRAM setups but they look such that the code up to the RAM copy is position independent and initially simply runs from an 'incorrect' address, which does not really help me much. In the case it matters I need to do this for a Cortex-M3. Maybe my flash code can be made position independent too and I can also think of some script magic to assemble the flash image, but I would of course prefer to do this in the ld script way if possible.
