OK. I could make the section an argument to SYM_CODE*() so that a developer will never miss that. Some documentation may be in order so the guidelines are clear. I will do the doc patch separately, if that is alright with you all.quoted
There is just one problem with this. Sometimes, there is some data in the same text section. That data will not get included when we do the SYM_CODE(section) change.Yes, data would need to be handled separately still. That doesn't seem insurmountable though?
I will think of something. Madhavan
