custom section in the linker file

oceansea — Wed, 13 Dec 2023 10:38:01 GMT

hi,

now i use S32DS for Power 2.1 IDE ,creat a MPC5748G project .

due to want place some data in a absolute addr ,so i modify the linker file

i add a new section :

/* Define bootFunc SRAM */

BOOTFUNCSRAM_BASE_ADDR = DEFINED(__bootfuncsram_base_addr__) ? __bootfuncsram_base_addr__ : 0x40000000;

BOOTFUNCSRAM_SIZE = DEFINED(__bootfuncsram_size__) ? __bootfuncsram_size__ : 4K;

m_bootFunc_data : org = BOOTFUNCSRAM_BASE_ADDR,len = BOOTFUNCSRAM_SIZE

.BootFuncBlock (NOLOAD):
{
KEEP(*(.BOOTFUNCDATA))
} > m_bootFunc_data

but ,when i use this section in .c file defined a struct

BootDriverFunction g_BootDriverFunction __attribute__((section (".BOOTFUNCDATA"))) ;

and compile the project ,it show some err:

the target (g_BootDriverFunction) of a R_PPC_VLE_SDA21 relocation is in the wrong output section (.BootFuncBlock)

can you help me?

thankyou!

Hi,

you may find helpful this thread - https://community.nxp.com/t5/S32-SDK/Initilization-error-for-Z7a-core/m-p/1322720

I tested your linker script file with empty project and on my side was testing function properly placed on address 0x40000000

Re: custom section in the linker file

oceansea — Wed, 20 Dec 2023 10:02:19 GMT

hi,

thank you reply;

now ,i can place the struct in the 0x40000000;

but ,if i write the struct ,the cpu0 will stop.

SRAM_BASE_ADDR = DEFINED(__sram_base_addr__) ? __sram_base_addr__ : 0x40001000;
SRAM_SIZE = DEFINED(__sram_size__) ? __sram_size__ : 252K;

before change the linker file ,the SRAM_SIZE is 256K,

after add a new section ,i change the SRAM_SIZE to 252K,because i hope the cpu0 do not

Initialise my SRAM(0x40000000~0x40001000).

it seem if the SRAM(0x40000000~0x40001000) have not Initialise ,then the cpu0 will

disable write these address (0x40000000~0x40001000)
