|
|
|
|
<p>When linking a program which uses overlays, you must place the overlays
|
|
at their load addresses, while relocating them to run at their mapped
|
|
addresses. To do this, you must write a linker script (see <a href="http://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/ld/Overlay-Description.html#Overlay-Description">Overlay
|
|
Description</a> in <cite>Using ld: the GNU linker</cite>). Unfortunately,
|
|
since linker scripts are specific to a particular host system, target
|
|
architecture, and target memory layout, this manual cannot provide
|
|
portable sample code demonstrating <small>GDB</small>’s overlay support.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>However, the <small>GDB</small> source distribution does contain an overlaid
|
|
program, with linker scripts for a few systems, as part of its test
|
|
suite. The program consists of the following files from
|
|
<samp>gdb/testsuite/gdb.base</samp>:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<dl compact="compact">
|
|
<dt><samp>overlays.c</samp></dt>
|
|
<dd><p>The main program file.
|
|
</p></dd>
|
|
<dt><samp>ovlymgr.c</samp></dt>
|
|
<dd><p>A simple overlay manager, used by <samp>overlays.c</samp>.
|
|
</p></dd>
|
|
<dt><samp>foo.c</samp></dt>
|
|
<dt><samp>bar.c</samp></dt>
|
|
<dt><samp>baz.c</samp></dt>
|
|
<dt><samp>grbx.c</samp></dt>
|
|
<dd><p>Overlay modules, loaded and used by <samp>overlays.c</samp>.
|
|
</p></dd>
|
|
<dt><samp>d10v.ld</samp></dt>
|
|
<dt><samp>m32r.ld</samp></dt>
|
|
<dd><p>Linker scripts for linking the test program on the <code>d10v-elf</code>
|
|
and <code>m32r-elf</code> targets.
|
|
</p></dd>
|
|
</dl>
|
|
|
|
<p>You can build the test program using the <code>d10v-elf</code> GCC
|
|
cross-compiler like this:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<div class="smallexample">
|
|
<pre class="smallexample">$ d10v-elf-gcc -g -c overlays.c
|
|
$ d10v-elf-gcc -g -c ovlymgr.c
|
|
$ d10v-elf-gcc -g -c foo.c
|
|
$ d10v-elf-gcc -g -c bar.c
|
|
$ d10v-elf-gcc -g -c baz.c
|
|
$ d10v-elf-gcc -g -c grbx.c
|
|
$ d10v-elf-gcc -g overlays.o ovlymgr.o foo.o bar.o \
|
|
baz.o grbx.o -Wl,-Td10v.ld -o overlays
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
|
|
<p>The build process is identical for any other architecture, except that
|
|
you must substitute the appropriate compiler and linker script for the
|
|
target system for <code>d10v-elf-gcc</code> and <code>d10v.ld</code>.
