Add KEEP() around vectors in linker scripts.

2011-12-18T06:43:08+00:00

Vectors are needed by the CPU, but they don't need to be accessed by Rockbox.
Without the KEEP(), they can be removed when liking with --gc-sections, 
creating a broken binary without any warnings. This tells the linker to not
remove them. It should enable use of --gc-sections for all targets. When not
using --gc-sections, this does not change the binary.

Do some things to make -ffunction-sections work better.

2011-12-17T01:43:32+00:00

* Add wildcards to various sections placements a la *(".text") => "*(.text*)"
* Remove hacky bits from those linker scripts (no problem encountered testing)
* Change section for asm functions from . to ..
  so that -ffunction-sections works for those asm file too.

FS#12397 : On targets which load .data directly into its final location and lack code for moving it, remove linker script trick which ignores section alignment and word-aligns the section instead.

*/app.lds: remove STUBOFFSET

2010-09-20T17:09:55+00:00

This is related to gdb, and gdb can only work on SH and ifp
This was mistakenly kept when app.lds was forked for each SoC
Side-effect: fix DEBUG builds when the rockbox binary is expected to
be loaded at the start of DRAM and there is no runtime relocation

Enable IRAM on TCC7801 (Cowon D2) for a 6-12% speedup in codecs that use it, and a small increase in battery life.

D2: Enable ARM cache coherency functions (eg. during codec load), which should eliminate data aborts/freezes on track changes. NOTE: The linker script reserves space at the end of DRAM for the TTB, but this is not currently used.

D2: Editing config.h wasn't enough to fully disable IRAM - also disable it in *.lds for a crash fix and further 100% increase in codec performance.

Make sure the linker considers crt0.o before all files specified on the command line by using STARTUP() instead of INPUT() in the .lds. Using INPUT() makes the linker process crt0.o after all files specified on the command line, making linking fail if there are librockbox.a members which are only referenced by crt0*.o. Remove the hackaround that was needed for building the gigabeat S bootloader before (aka UIE() problem).

Split up app.lds to the respective target directories. The portalplayer devices replicate app.lds since their target tree doesn't follow a syntax typical to the newer arm targets - the portalplayers could be cleaned up further. boot.lds and plugin.lds still need to be cleaned up.
