Hi, I am attempting to understand the mspgcc linker scripts. I have some doubts regarding it.
In msp430.x I find /* Read-only sections, merged into text segment. */ .hash : { *(.hash) } .dynsym : { *(.dynsym) } .dynstr : { *(.dynstr) } .gnu.version : { *(.gnu.version) } .gnu.version_d : { *(.gnu.version_d) } .gnu.version_r : { *(.gnu.version_r) } .rel.init : { *(.rel.init) } .rela.init : { *(.rela.init) } .rel.fini : { *(.rel.fini) } .rela.fini : { *(.rela.fini) } .rel.text : { *(.rel.text .rel.text.* .rel.gnu.linkonce.t.*) } .rela.text : { *(.rela.text .rela.text.* .rela.gnu.linkonce.t.*) } .rel.rodata : { *(.rel.rodata .rel.rodata.* .rel.gnu.linkonce.r.*) } .rela.rodata : { *(.rela.rodata .rela.rodata.* .rela.gnu.linkonce.r.*) } .rel.data : { *(.rel.data .rel.data.* .rel.gnu.linkonce.d.*) } .rela.data : { *(.rela.data .rela.data.* .rela.gnu.linkonce.d.*) } .rel.bss : { *(.rel.bss .rel.bss.* .rel.gnu.linkonce.b.*) } .rela.bss : { *(.rela.bss .rela.bss.* .rela.gnu.linkonce.b.*) } .rel.ctors : { *(.rel.ctors) } .rela.ctors : { *(.rela.ctors) } .rel.dtors : { *(.rel.dtors) } .rela.dtors : { *(.rela.dtors) } .rel.got : { *(.rel.got) } .rela.got : { *(.rela.got) } .rel.plt : { *(.rel.plt) } .rela.plt : { *(.rela.plt) } Where does this information go? Into the RAM or will they be stripped when the elf binary is fed into mspdebug? Also where can I get some documentation for the above fields? I checked the System V ABI and LSB and it was not very thorough.
