Hello,
I'm trying to create a program with a custom section. This doesn't seem to
work; ld.so crashes on it.
I have generated my custom section with Nasm:
[SECTION .custom exec write alloc]
some_data: db 'This is some data...'
Then I have modified the default linker script to load it at the fixed
address 0 (other fixed addresses also cause problems). Here are the first
lines:
SECTIONS
{
. = 0;
.custom : { *(.custom) }
/* Read-only sections, merged into text segment: */
. = 0x20000000 + SIZEOF_HEADERS;
.interp : { *(.interp) }
.hash : { *(.hash) }
.dynsym : { *(.dynsym) }
.dynstr : { *(.dynstr) }
.gnu.version : { *(.gnu.version) }
Then a small test program:
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
printf("If this appears on the screen there is no problem.\n");
};
And a makefile:
problem: problem.o image.o
gcc -Xlinker -T -Xlinker link.res -o problem problem.o image.o
problem.o: problem.c
gcc -c -o problem.o problem.c
image.o:
nasm -f elf -o image.o image.asm
Why doesn't this work? Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug in
ld.so?
I have placed these files on the web at
