Linking a shared library in embedded arm9 system without os

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

I'm working on embedded system based on an arm926ej-s processor. We use a
32MB SDRAM to run a code,which is booted from a serial flash. Unfortunately
the flash is too small and now I need to somehow deal with it. I have a SD
card available so I want to put a part of a code (library) there and load it
to RAM during the boot.

I'm able to take a piece of data and copy it everywhere with my bootloader
but unfortunately I can't figure out how to link the project. I thought that
I put all the symbols from library to some special linker section with
defined address (like __attribute__((section=)) does), but it seems it
cannot be done globally (my library is relatively big, hundreds of
functions). Maybe building the library as the shared object could be the way
- but don't know how to prepare the linker script as I use the one provided
with Rowley Crossworks IDE, which has no support for dynamic linking (no
sections .dynamic, .hash, .pot etc.) because it is normally used for non-os
solutions.

Is there anyone who could give me any advices about my issue, please?

with best regards
Jan
