[ECOS] ECOS porting on leon

[mishrad]

Hi all,


While compiling and linking hello world program on ecos ported on leon, I get
the following-

gnutools/sparc-elf-3.4.4/bin/../lib/gcc/sparc-elf/3.4.4/../../../../sparc-elf/bin/ld:
error: no memory region for loadable section '.ram_vectors'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

There are some old threads dedicated to it. My problem is exactly the same
as in the below mentioned thread.

http://www.sourceware.org/ml/ecos-discuss/2006-05/msg00220.html

Anybody knows how to fix it?

Deepak

Which version of eCos do you use?

You could try the patched version from our ftp site:

ftp://gaisler.com/gaisler.com/ecos/src/ecos-rep-1.0.8.tar.gz

The leon port has not been touched in a long time. It looks like you
will need to add a call to SECTION_ram_vectors() in the leon linker
script file:

   hal/sparc/leon/current/include/pkgconf/mlt_sparc_leon_ram.ldi

Compare this with the equivalent linker script file for the sleb target:

   sparclite/sleb/current/include/pkgconf/mlt_sparclite_sleb_ram.ldi

Please submit a patch when you get this working.
