It looks like the purpose is to optimally fill a flash sector with definitions, is this accurate? Why is this needed? Beside the obvious (reset vectors, startup code), is there any reason to prefer any given definition to go into the sector being filled?
i havent looked at this particular case, but often it's because we need to carve out a sector for an embedded env and the linker script syntax isnt good enough to say "start filling this section and once it's filled, start filling this other one". that'd be awesome. -mike
