Linker script conflict error

[Dukextra]

Hi

I have problem with GNU linker.

I will show you simple example how it appears. But basically if I have set one function to specified memory section and try to call function with string parameter. then linker says "causes a section type conflict".

char FooBar  __attribute__((section(".defined_section")));
char TestFunction  __attribute__((section(".defined_section")));

char FooBar(char * s)
{
    if(s) return 1;
    else return 0;
}

void TestFunction(void)
{
    FooBar(1);      // This works fine
    FooBar("1")    // This doesnt work, linker script says: " TestFunction causes a section type conflict"
}

So what is that error message? Google didnt find any solve for this.

The string literal "1" is const, whereas the signature of the function is non-const. Change the definition of FooBar to use a const char* instead of a char* as an argument.
