Posted on November 15, 2011 at 12:33I need( from some reason) to get always the same size of bin file.
I've tried to create other flash-section and fill it with some value.
As last section I added following..
.added :
{
FILL(0xAB);
. = ALIGN(0x20000) - 1; //128kB
BYTE(0xAB); //write something to say linker its really section
} >FLASH
But than original linker script continue with
/* used by the startup to initialize data */
_sidata = .;
/* Initialized data sections goes into RAM, load LMA copy after code */
.data : AT ( _sidata )
{
. = ALIGN(4);
_sdata = .; /* create a global symbol at data start */
*(.data) /* .data sections */
*(.data*) /* .data* sections */
. = ALIGN(4);
_edata = .; /* define a global symbol at data end */
} >RAM
So my bin file doesnt finished at 0x8020000 but continue with _sidata.
When I switch
_sidata = .;
with my added section, I get error.
overlaps section .added loaded at [08010694,0801ffff]
#linker-stm32
