Loader for ADSP-2106x/21160 SHARC Processors
Table 3-15. ADSP-2106x/21160 Loader Command-Line Switches
(Cont’d)
Switch Description
-fhex
-fASCII
-fbinary
-finclude
-fS1
-fS2
-fS3
-h
or
-help
Specifies the format of the boot-loadable file (Intel hex-32, ASCII, S1,
S2, S3, binary, or include). If the -f switch does not appear on the
command line, the default boot file format is Intel hex-32 for PROM,
and ASCII for host or link.
Available formats depend on the boot type selection (-b switch):
For PROM boot type, select a hex, ASCII, S1, S2, S3, or
include format.
For host or link boot type, select an ASCII, binary, or include
format.
Command-line help. Outputs a list of the command-line switches to
standard out and exits. Type elfloader -proc ADSP-21xxx -h,
where xxx is 060, 061, 062, 065L, or 160 to obtain help for SHARC
processors. By default, the -h switch alone provides help for the loader
driver.
-id#exe=filename Specifies the processor ID. The -id#exe= switch directs the loader utility
to use the processor ID (#) for the corresponding executable file
(filename parameter) when producing a boot-loadable file for a multiprocessor
system. This switch is used to produce a boot-loadable file
that boots multiple processors from a single EPROM. Valid values for #
are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.
Do not use this switch for single-processor systems. For single-processor
systems, use filename as a parameter without a switch. For more information,
refer to “ADSP-2106x/21160 Processor ID Numbers” on
page 3-24.
-id#ref=N Points the processor ID (#) loader jump table entry to the ID (N) image.
If the executable file for the (#) processor is identical to the executable
of the (N) processor, the switch can be used to set the PROM start
address of the processor with ID of # to be the same as for the processor
with ID of N. This effectively reduces the size of the loader file by providing
a single copy of an executable to two or more processors in a
multiprocessor system. For more information, refer to
“ADSP-2106x/21160 Processor ID Numbers” on page 3-24.
