Hi all,

Can someone advise a way to support device specific linker scripts in
binutils for our AVR port. Currently bintuils is based on device
architecture and not device as i understand.

This is a reasonable approach. Just imagine what a device-specific approach would men in the ARM world, not taking into account different RAM and flash configurations...

I am trying to update the linker scripts, with the start address of
boot section, which is different for each device (or atleast i don't
seem to find a way to compute it based on the information available
in binutils )

If such linker scripts shall become the default linker scripts then you need 200+ emulations to support the 200+ devices.

Maybe you can have a look at how the tools handle different RAM start: The compiler just calls the linker with Tdata to provide the information. This you could add a new column to ./gcc/config/avr/avr-mcus.def and use that information appropriately.
