U-boot-1.1.6-2008R1到vdsp5(bf561)的移植记录（11）：bsz

 

  

在VDSP程序中，有一个叫做bsz的段，其含义是

Controls placement of zero-initialized variable data

其实就是相当于u-boot.lds.s中的.bss段，所以我们可以将这个段放在.bss段中。

       .bss

       {

         INPUT_SECTION_ALIGN(4)

              __bss_start = .;

              INPUT_SECTIONS($LIBRARIES_UBOOT(.sbss) $LIBRARIES_UBOOT(.scommon))

              INPUT_SECTIONS($LIBRARIES_UBOOT(.dynbss))

              INPUT_SECTIONS($LIBRARIES_UBOOT(.bss))

              INPUT_SECTIONS($LIBRARIES_UBOOT(bsz))

              INPUT_SECTIONS($LIBRARIES_UBOOT(COMMON))

              __bss_end = .;

       } > MEM_SDRAM

当然，这样做会引起链接器的一个警告：

[Warning li2131] "./u-boot.ldf":687 Input section(s) of incompatible init qualifier detected in the output section '.bss'

For more details, see 'linker_log.xml' in the output directory.

Li2131的解释是：

A section qualifier can be specified for an output section. The input sections mapped into the qualified output section should have a compatible initialization qualifier. The linker warns you if:

 

The section qualifier is not compatible with an initialization qualifier on an input section.

 

A section qualifier is on the output section and an input section without a qualifier is mapped into it.

 

No section qualifier is on the output section and an input section with a qualifier is mapped into it.

 

Section qualifiers that can be used in the .ldf file to qualify output sections are:

 

NO_INIT

 

ZERO_INIT

 

RUNTIME_INIT

 

SHT_NOBITS

引起这个警告的原因在于bsz段应该使用ZERO_INIT来进行修饰，当然，由于我们将这个段放在.bss中，在start.s中会对这个段中的数据清0，也可以达到同样的效果，所以尽可以忽略这个警告。
