I have the following hex470 command file:
x.out
-b
--outfile x.bin
SECTIONS
{
.text, .data, .const, .cinit:
}
My problem is that hex470 is dropping the non-empty .data section from the output:
C:\Projects\x\Debug>hex470 x.cmd
Translating to Binary format...
"x.out" ==> .text
"x.out" ==> .const
"x.out" ==> .cinit
The linker map clearly shows there's stuff there:
run origin load origin length init length attrs members
---------- ----------- ---------- ----------- ----- -------
401ffff8 401ffff8 0000aef0 0000aef0 r-x
401ffff8 401ffff8 0000aef0 0000aef0 r-x .text
4020aee8 4020aee8 00000055 00000055 rw-
4020aee8 4020aee8 00000055 00000055 rw- .data

4020b380 4020b380 0000005c 0000005c r-- .cinit
4020b3e0 4020b3e0 00000870 00000000 rw-
4020b3e0 4020b3e0 00000870 00000000 rw- .bss
4020bc50 4020bc50 00000800 00000800 rw-
4020bc50 4020bc50 00000800 00000800 rw- .stack
Why would it do this?
Also, when I run dis470 on the file, the .data section is missing as well.
Finally, here's the linker command file:
MEMORY
{
shared_ram: ORIGIN = 0x401FFFF8 LENGTH = 0x00010008
}
SECTIONS
{
GROUP
{
.text:
{
mmcload.obj(.text)
*(.text)
}
.data: align=4 {}
.const: align=4 {}
} > shared_ram
GROUP
{
.cinit: {}
.bss: align=4
{
mlolen = . - 0x40200000;
_bss_start = .;
*(.bss)
. = ALIGN(16);
_bss_end = .;
}
.stack: {}
} > shared_ram
}
Thanks in advance.
