MIPS startup code and linker script (fwd)

[S Sathyanarayanan <sathyas at sankhya dot com>]

Hi,

 I had successfully built a mips-gcc compiler with newlib. I'm able
 to load and execute simple helloworld program in the mips malta board
 with a simple startup code and linker script provided my MIPS. 

 But for complex applications i'm not able to execute the program on the
 target. Please advise where can i get info on writing startup codes and
 linker scripts for particular targets.

 I need to know the semantics of 
 *(.gnu.linkonce.t*)
 *(.gnu.linkonce.d)
 *(.mips16.fn.*)
 .gptab.sdata : { *(.gptab.data) *(.gptab.sdata) }

 etc,,

 During link, i have 2 object files and one application library along 
 with the newlib libraries.

 I have also attached my modified linker script which enables me to load
the complex application to the target.

Thanks,
sathya
