It may be worth considering a general alternative to inserting filenames in the linker script, if only to permit re-use. Taking as a starting point, this snippet from a gcc linker script: .text : { __code_start = . ; *(.vectors) __ctors_start = . ; *(.ctors) __ctors_end = . ; __dtors_start = . ; *(.dtors) __dtors_end = . ; *(.progmem.gcc*) *(.progmem*) . = ALIGN(2); *(.init0) /* Start here after reset. */ *(.init1) *(.init2) /* Clear __zero_reg__, set up stack pointer. */ *(.init3) *(.init4) /* Initialize data and BSS. */ *(.init5) *(.init6) /* C++ constructors. */ *(.init7) *(.init8) *(.init9) /* Call main(). */ *(.text) . = ALIGN(2); *(.text.*) Then it is convenient to use this for the vectors: .section .vectors,"ax",@progbits and similarly place the crt0 stuff in .init section(s) of choice. The vectors are now located at __code_start, as needed, and the crt0 stuff precedes .text. (If the C++ sections serve only as clutter, we're not obliged to retain them. :) What attracts me to this model is the string of fall-through initialisation sections. They're very useful for additional private initialisations within individual source files. e.g. hardware set-up. It works very well for me. It may be of some use in your case.
