[PATCH 3/3] mips: clean up linker script using new linker script macros.

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

 



From: Nelson Elhage <nelhage@xxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch results in fewer output sections and in some data being
reordered, but should have no functional impact.
