Linker Script - Placing a section at the end of a memory region

Question

I have searched far and wide for how to do this and have failed to come up with an answer.

My memory layout is as follows:

Fake Address | Section
            


        

Answer 1

You can force sections at specific locations.

For example in this Red Hat GNU Linker documentation page, you can define the .data section to start at address 0x8000000:

SECTIONS
{
  . = 0x10000;
  .text : { *(.text) }
  . = 0x8000000;
  .data : { *(.data) }
  .bss : { *(.bss) }
}
