16.2.2.1. elf2hex
Synopsis
elf2hex [OPTIONS] <ELF FILE> <HEX FILE>
Description
The elf2hex utility converts the software and data within an .elf file in the address range [base, end] into a .hex file that can be used as the initialization data for a memory component. The width option is to ensure that the resulting .hex file is formatted properly for its corresponding memory component.
This utility can also create lane files which are used to initialize multi-laned memory components. The maximum address span between base and end is 1 GByte (0x4000_0000).
Usage
#Generate hex file for OCM Memory initialization elf2hex <elf input file> -b <On-chip memory start address> -w <On-chip memory data width in bits> -e <On-chip memory end address> -r 4 -o <hex output file> Example: elf2hex software/app/build/hello.elf -b 0x0 -w 32 -e 0x4FFFF -r 4 -o ram.hex
