- Bcc:
Hi,
Is there support in the binutils linker to reorder code within a module to
improve locality of reference in order to reduce page misses in a paging
based memory system? The (partial) call graph should be used to determine
the order. Is this possible at all in binutils ld? Has it been done? Did
anyone worked on it?
Thanks,
Jan
PS. The code to be reordered is ARM code.
