ADSP-219x DSP Loader Guide
3-20 Vi+ Loader Manual
for 16-Bit Processors
Example :
elfloader p0.dxe -proc ADSP-2191
In the above example, the loader runs with:
•
p0.dxe
—the name of the executable file to be processed into a
boot-loadable file. The output file’s name is
p0.ldr
because a name
is not specified.
•
-proc ADSP-2191
—the target processor, ADSP-2191 DSP.
File Searches
Many loader switches take a file name as an optional parameter. Table 3-5
on page 3-20 lists the expected file types. File searches are important in
the loader operation. The loader supports relative and absolute directory
names, default directories. File searches occur as described
on page 1-9 .
File Extensions
Table 3-5 lists and describes file types input and output by the loader.
Table 3-5. File Extensions for ADSP-218x Loader Operation
File Extension Description
.DXE
Executable files and boot-kernel files.
.OVL
Overlay memory files. The loader recognizes overlay memory files but does not
expect these files on the command line. Place
.OVL
files in the same directory as
the
.DXE
file that refers to them; the loader can locate them when processing
the
.BNM
file.
.LDR
Loader output file.
