I am trying to place some data in debug sections of the elf file, similar to what the following would do in a linker script for GNU ld:
SECTIONS { .postform_config 0 (INFO): { KEEP(*(.postform_config)) } .postform_version 0 (INFO): { KEEP(*(.postform_version)) } }
Is there a way to do such a thing in a scatter file with armlink (with armcompiler v6.14)? From the documentation I can't see any attributes such as the INFO attribute GNU ld has.
Hi Javier
I have not been able to find much documentation on what the INFO attribute does, but seems to create a section that is not allocated to memory. I don't believe there is an equivalent with armlink. The available attributes are listed below.
