C-Compiler Overview Section Names
SECTION NAMES
The compiler places code and data into separate sections in the object file. Every section has
a name that is used by the linker to determine which sections to combine and how sections
are ultimately grouped in the executable file.
• Code Section (.text)
• Initialized Data Section (.data)
• Uninitialized Data Section (.bss)
• Constant Data Section (.const)
NOTE: All sections are allocated in the __MEMORY address space. The default sections .text,
.data, and .bss can be renamed using the –Ntext, –Ndata, and –Nbss command line options.
