You're going to need to become a real expert in linker scripting to even come close to doing this. Joerg & company might be able to help with this. Also, using either cygwin or linux, do an "info ld" to find out more on how to do linker scripts. My feeling is that you are asking quite a bit too much from the linker to expect it to "flow" code around an obstacle in the middle of it's memory map. If you want to set up two sections, before and after "my section" and assign code to each, you could succeed. But as it is, I don't think the linker comprehends a single section that comes in two pieces. I'm not sure why you insist that it *must* be in the middle of your code, but that's for you to know and decide. The other option would be to put your code at the end of memory, maybe butted up against the bootloader section in high memory. Again, this would be at a known fixed location, but might need to change for different processors (another requirement that I do not understand).
