9.50 --first=section_id
Places the selected input section first in its execution region. This can, for example, place the section containing the vector table first in the image.
Syntax
--first=section_id
Where section_id
is one of the following:
symbol
Selects the section that defines symbol
. You must not specify
a symbol that has more than one definition, because only one section can be placed
first. For example: --first=reset
.
object
(section
)
Selects section
from
object
. There must be no space between
object
and the following open parenthesis. For
example: --first=init.o(init)
.
object
Selects the single input section in object
. If you use this
short form and there is more than one input section, the linker generates an error
message. For example: --first=init.o
.
Usage
The --first
option cannot be used with --scatter
.
Instead, use the +FIRST
attribute in a scatter file.
