<h2 class="appendix">Appendix A MRI Compatible Script Files</h2>
|
|
<a name="index-MRI-compatibility"></a>
|
|
<p>To aid users making the transition to <small>GNU</small> <code>ld</code> from the MRI
|
|
linker, <code>ld</code> can use MRI compatible linker scripts as an
|
|
alternative to the more general-purpose linker scripting language
|
|
described in <a href="Scripts.html#Scripts">Scripts</a>. MRI compatible linker scripts have a much
|
|
simpler command set than the scripting language otherwise used with
|
|
<code>ld</code>. <small>GNU</small> <code>ld</code> supports the most commonly used MRI
|
|
linker commands; these commands are described here.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>In general, MRI scripts aren’t of much use with the <code>a.out</code> object
|
|
file format, since it only has three sections and MRI scripts lack some
|
|
features to make use of them.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>You can specify a file containing an MRI-compatible script using the
|
|
‘<samp>-c</samp>’ command-line option.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Each command in an MRI-compatible script occupies its own line; each
|
|
command line starts with the keyword that identifies the command (though
|
|
blank lines are also allowed for punctuation). If a line of an
|
|
MRI-compatible script begins with an unrecognized keyword, <code>ld</code>
|
|
issues a warning message, but continues processing the script.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Lines beginning with ‘<samp>*</samp>’ are comments.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>You can write these commands using all upper-case letters, or all
|
|
lower case; for example, ‘<samp>chip</samp>’ is the same as ‘<samp>CHIP</samp>’.
|
|
The following list shows only the upper-case form of each command.

|
|
<dd><p>Normally, <code>ld</code> includes in the output file all sections from all
|
|
the input files. However, in an MRI-compatible script, you can use the
|
|
<code>ABSOLUTE</code> command to restrict the sections that will be present in
|
|
your output program. If the <code>ABSOLUTE</code> command is used at all in a
|
|
script, then only the sections named explicitly in <code>ABSOLUTE</code>
|
|
commands will appear in the linker output. You can still use other
|
|
input sections (whatever you select on the command line, or using
|
|
<code>LOAD</code>) to resolve addresses in the output file.
