MSP430FR2311: msp430-gcc elf file format details?

Part Number: MSP430FR2311

I'm looking for details on the msp430 .elf file format. I looked through the msp430 gcc manual and didn't see any mention of it. Does anyone know where I can find these details? I have to write a script to parse the elf for packing into another mcu's firmware.

  • Hi Chris,

    Why don't you use .txt or .bin format?

  • Hi Chris,

    The MSP430 ABI should provide you with the information you need. There's details on MSP430-specific extensions to ELF in there, and links to reference documents which form the base for the ABI.

    Release 4.0 of the TI Compiler Tools introduced a new ABI called the MSP430 EABI. It is based on the ELF object file format. It is derived from industry standard models, including the IA-64 C++ ABI and the System V ABI for ELF and Dynamic Linking.
