| <h4 class="subsection">3.6.1 Output Section Description</h4> |
| |
| <p>The full description of an output section looks like this: |
| <pre class="smallexample"> <var>section</var> [<var>address</var>] [(<var>type</var>)] : |
| [AT(<var>lma</var>)] |
| [ALIGN(<var>section_align</var>) | ALIGN_WITH_INPUT] |
| [SUBALIGN(<var>subsection_align</var>)] |
| [<var>constraint</var>] |
| { |
| <var>output-section-command</var> |
| <var>output-section-command</var> |
| ... |
| } [><var>region</var>] [AT><var>lma_region</var>] [:<var>phdr</var> :<var>phdr</var> ...] [=<var>fillexp</var>] [,] |
| </pre> |
| <p>Most output sections do not use most of the optional section attributes. |
| |
| <p>The whitespace around <var>section</var> is required, so that the section |
| name is unambiguous. The colon and the curly braces are also required. |
| The comma at the end may be required if a <var>fillexp</var> is used and |
| the next <var>sections-command</var> looks like a continuation of the expression. |
| The line breaks and other white space are optional. |
| |
| <p>Each <var>output-section-command</var> may be one of the following: |
| |
| <ul> |
| <li>a symbol assignment (see <a href="Assignments.html#Assignments">Assignments</a>) |
| <li>an input section description (see <a href="Input-Section.html#Input-Section">Input Section</a>) |
| <li>data values to include directly (see <a href="Output-Section-Data.html#Output-Section-Data">Output Section Data</a>) |
| <li>a special output section keyword (see <a href="Output-Section-Keywords.html#Output-Section-Keywords">Output Section Keywords</a>) |
| </ul> |
| |
| </body></html> |
