[sdcc-devel] How to put initialized data plainly in the data section?

[Atirut W. <ati...@gm...>]

Hi all. I've been trying to figure out how to make SDCC put
initialized data in the data section instead of in `.initializer` and
such, but no luck.

My goal is to make SDCC work well with Binutils with minimal custom
linker script work, and putting initialized data in the data section
is part of this. Problem is, I can't seem to figure out how to force
SDCC to do that. All my hacks made to the compiler only seem to move
it somewhere else other than the data section. Should I look at
directly implementing native ELF output instead?
