  Gregory Nutt 5995714cfd boards/mips Linker Scripts: The PIC32M* start-up code initializes .bss by writing 16 bytes at a time in a loop. The start (_sbss) alignment is only required to be 4 bytes since the write is done with 4 store instructions. In a previous change, the end address, _ebss, was aligned to 16 byte to prevent initializing past the end off the .bss region. However, that does not work unless the start address, _sbss, is also aligned to 16 bytes. 5 years ago
  Gregory Nutt 805fa49a4e Back out/change some of the alignments in the previous comments. Non-ARM CPUs my have different alignment requirements. AVR, for example, has none. MIPS requires 16-byte alignment of the end of .bss. 5 years ago
  Gregory Nutt 2925c28f8f All linker scripts: Preface all _edata defininitions with . = ALIGN(4). Otherwise, the last bytes in the .data section may not be initialized properly. Also convert all linker scripts indent in units of 8-spaces to units of 4-spaces. 5 years ago
