/* # Developer notes
2+
3+
- Symbols that start with a double underscore (__) are considered "private"
4+
5+
- Symbols that start with a single underscore (_) are considered "semi-public"; they can be
6+
overridden in a user linker script, but should not be referred from user code (e.g. `extern "C" {
7+
static mut __sbss }`).
8+
9+
- `EXTERN` forces the linker to keep a symbol in the final binary. We use this to make sure a
10+
symbol if not dropped if it appears in or near the front of the linker arguments and "it's not
11+
needed" by any of the preceding objects (linker arguments)
12+
13+
- `PROVIDE` is used to provide default values that can be overridden by a user linker script
14+
15+
- On alignment: it's important for correctness that the VMA boundaries of both .bss and .data *and*
16+
the LMA of .data are all 4-byte aligned. These alignments are assumed by the RAM initialization
17+
routine. There's also a second benefit: 4-byte aligned boundaries means that you won't see
18+
"Address (..) is out of bounds" in the disassembly produced by `objdump`.
