<h3 class="section">3.6 SECTIONS Command</h3>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p><a name="index-SECTIONS-450"></a>The <code>SECTIONS</code> command tells the linker how to map input sections
|
||
|
into output sections, and how to place the output sections in memory.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>The format of the <code>SECTIONS</code> command is:
|
||
|
<pre class="smallexample"> SECTIONS
|
||
|
{
|
||
|
<var>sections-command</var>
|
||
|
<var>sections-command</var>
|
||
|
...
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
</pre>
|
||
|
<p>Each <var>sections-command</var> may of be one of the following:
|
||
|
|
||
|
<ul>
|
||
|
<li>an <code>ENTRY</code> command (see <a href="Entry-Point.html#Entry-Point">Entry command</a>)
|
||
|
<li>a symbol assignment (see <a href="Assignments.html#Assignments">Assignments</a>)
|
||
|
<li>an output section description
|
||
|
<li>an overlay description
|
||
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>The <code>ENTRY</code> command and symbol assignments are permitted inside the
|
||
|
<code>SECTIONS</code> command for convenience in using the location counter in
|
||
|
those commands. This can also make the linker script easier to
|
||
|
understand because you can use those commands at meaningful points in
|
||
|
the layout of the output file.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>Output section descriptions and overlay descriptions are described
|
||
|
below.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>If you do not use a <code>SECTIONS</code> command in your linker script, the
|
||
|
linker will place each input section into an identically named output
|
||
|
section in the order that the sections are first encountered in the
|
||
|
input files. If all input sections are present in the first file, for
|
||
|
example, the order of sections in the output file will match the order
|
||
|
in the first input file. The first section will be at address zero.
