Making fragmented applications


Hi,

I used to work on a project, under pSos OS, ARM7 core, and isiarm (armcc & armlink) compilation chain.
Now we moved on eCos, ARM9 core, and GNU compilation chain (arm-elf-gcc for compiling and linking).


My project was composed by a "bios", (embedding eCos OS (libsys.32l) and armlib_rc.32l (ANSI C lib)), and a customer "application".
This customer application was compiled independantly of the bios, but linked with the libsys.32l and armlib_rc.32l library, with the -ro-base option to tell the linker where the application will be ran in memory. The access to the bios was made by a custom jumptable.
The given application was the pretty small. It seems that the used ANSI C function where duplicated in the application binary, but the OS functions where accessed by a sort of jumptable, and everything was going fine.


Now with eCos and GNU compilation chain, I would like to have the same results, but is seems that my "application" has all the eCos kernel whithin, exceptions handler, and so on. I don't know how to tell the linker to just build a binary with static jumps to eCos API, based on a given execution address, and not to embbed all the kernel...

Thank you for your advices.
