This sounds like a special case, but in general, "there's nothing new under the sun" and compilers/assemblers/linkers do this every day... wouldn't that just be a matter of providing the .o/.a object file and/or .h header file?
I throught we were almost doing this already? I call printk from initram for example.
I think Carl is talking about linking against something *in* a ROM (image), not just from .o files resulting from a build...
Yes, indeed. Ron, see also my other mail in this thread with Date: Mon, 21 Apr 2008 02:05:39 +0200
I want people to be able to compile initram and stage2 against a shipped/burned ROM (which means the symbol table for the bootblock need to end up in ROM somehow).
