The assembler uses word addresses, so a 16-bit entry can refer to 128K So check the addresses from the linker map (which are byte addresses) and compare those to what is stored. My recollection is that if you use function pointers, then everything just works. > Will avr-gcc use the right relocation when picking one function from the > array and calling it? or should I declare the functions with some > special attribute and/or do some assembler magic with gs() operator when > calling those kind of functions. > > So far I see that gcc put some trampoline calls after the interrupt > vectors for some functions, but everything fits within the first 64K so far. > > I'm just trying to be sure that when code begin to fall off the first > 64K, I'm not going to get funny problems a few weeks later, after I > completely forgot about this thing. I wrote an i2c bootloader for the 128, and I ran into some issues similar to what you describe. If you look in http://svn.gumstix.com/gumstix-buildroot/branches/projects/robostix/i2c-BootLoader/vectors.Sat jump_table, I declare 3 16-bit pointers into my bootloader. Then, in this file: http://svn.gumstix.com/gumstix-buildroot/branches/projects/robostix/Common/i2c-slave-boot.cThe BootloaderJumpTable just contains ordinary function pointers. I copy the jump table from flash into RAM in the I2C_SlaveBootInit function and then just call through the function pointers to call into the bootloader. I had to be able to copy data from anywhere in the flash, so I created an addr32 macro that returns a 32-bit address of an arbitrary object in flash: http://svn.gumstix.com/gumstix-buildroot/branches/projects/robostix/i2c-BootLoader/BootLoader.c Search for addr32 Anyways, not exactly what you're looking for, but hopefully a few ideas to help you along.
