Question on creating a secondary bootloader for C6713

Started by Aditi Akula August 9, 2011
Hi,

I want to create a secondary bootloader for C6713 DSP.

I am using the SPRA999A document form TI for this purpose.

The document suggests to create and link the copy table as follows

.text : load = FLASH_REST, run = IRAM, table(BINIT)

.const : load = FLASH_REST, run = IRAM, table(BINIT)

I have used the same in my linker command file. BUt when I compile the
project, the compiler

throws a warning :

warning: table(BINIT) operator ignored for ".text":
table() operator cannot be associated with empty output section

warning: table(BINIT) operator ignored for ".const":
table() operator cannot be associated with empty output section

I cannot see any .binit section in the MAP file.

What do these warnings mean? And how can I resolve the issue?

Thanks,

Aditi.
