[Main] Title=__ld_insert_kernel_bss_refs See Also=insert_kernel_data_refs: __ld_insert_kernel_data_refs, insert_kernel_relocs: __ld_insert_kernel_relocs, insert_mlink_bss_refs: __ld_insert_mlink_bss_refs, insert_compressed_bss_refs: __ld_insert_compressed_bss_refs [Top] __ld_insert_kernel_bss_refs outputs references to the BSS section in the format defined in __ld_insert_kernel_relocs. The only difference is that the relocation address is not the entry point of the program but the beginning of the BSS section.

If you insert these references, the linker assumes that the BSS section is handled by you; that is, you have to allocate it dynamically using __ld_bss_size and use a pointer to it as the relocation address.

Note: The limitations of __ld_insert_kernel_relocs also apply to this insertion.
