[ECOS] RAM Images on AT91SAM7s256

["Alois Z." <alois at gmx dot at>]

Hi,

I currently working with a AT91SAM7s256 based board. For debugging and testing I like to devlop RAM only images. As the existing eCos support for this platform has only definitions for rom images I tried to use the existing files for ram linker file definitions. After looking through several ldi files and googling around I'm not quite shure if made the right placement for the 'SECTION_rom_vectors' and the 'SECTION_fixed_vectors' sections.

Currently my ram.ldi looks like:

MEMORY
{
    ram : ORIGIN = 0x00200000, LENGTH = 0x10000
}

SECTIONS
{
    SECTIONS_BEGIN
    SECTION_rom_vectors (ram, 0x00200000, LMA_EQ_VMA)
    SECTION_fixed_vectors (ram, ALIGN (0x1), LMA_EQ_VMA)
    SECTION_text (ram, ALIGN (0x1), LMA_EQ_VMA)
    SECTION_fini (ram, ALIGN (0x4), LMA_EQ_VMA)
    SECTION_rodata (ram, ALIGN (0x4), LMA_EQ_VMA)
    SECTION_rodata1 (ram, ALIGN (0x4), LMA_EQ_VMA)
    SECTION_fixup (ram, ALIGN (0x4), LMA_EQ_VMA)
    SECTION_gcc_except_table (ram, ALIGN (0x4), LMA_EQ_VMA)
    SECTION_data (ram, ALIGN (0x4), FOLLOWING (.gcc_except_table))
    SECTION_bss (ram, ALIGN (0x4), LMA_EQ_VMA)
    CYG_LABEL_DEFN(__heap1) = ALIGN (0x8);
    SECTIONS_END
}

the original rom.ldi has been:

MEMORY
{
    ram : ORIGIN = 0x00200000, LENGTH = 0x10000
    rom : ORIGIN = 0x00100000, LENGTH = 0x40000
}

SECTIONS
{
    SECTIONS_BEGIN
    CYG_LABEL_DEFN(__reserved_bootmon) = 0x00000000; . = CYG_LABEL_DEFN(__reserved_bootmon) + 0x01000;
    SECTION_rom_vectors (rom, CYGNUM_HAL_ARM_AT91_IMAGE_ADDRESS, LMA_EQ_VMA)
    SECTION_text (rom, ALIGN (0x1), LMA_EQ_VMA)
    SECTION_fini (rom, ALIGN (0x4), LMA_EQ_VMA)
    SECTION_rodata (rom, ALIGN (0x4), LMA_EQ_VMA)
    SECTION_rodata1 (rom, ALIGN (0x4), LMA_EQ_VMA)
    SECTION_fixup (rom, ALIGN (0x4), LMA_EQ_VMA)
    SECTION_gcc_except_table (rom, ALIGN (0x4), LMA_EQ_VMA)
    SECTION_fixed_vectors (ram, 0x00200040, LMA_EQ_VMA)
    SECTION_data (ram, ALIGN (0x4), FOLLOWING (.gcc_except_table))
    SECTION_bss (ram, ALIGN (0x4), LMA_EQ_VMA)
    CYG_LABEL_DEFN(__heap1) = ALIGN (0x8);
    SECTIONS_END
}

Did I made a correct placement or not?

Thanks in advance,

Alois
