Not all the architectures can cope correctly with unaligned data, and thus the embedded init written is bogus (since it will contain random padding at the beginning, and truncated of the same amount at the end). To overcome that, make sure the rodata section with the embedded init is always aligned to 8 bytes, which should work fine for both 32bit and 64bit architectures. --- src/bin2s.pl | 1 +

Assuming you're working with an ARM target, you may also hit a problem with the alignment option on the .comm directive. Attached is a first-cut patch for this latter problem. deep On Mon, Jan 25, 2010 at 5:42 PM, Edmund Grimley Evans <Edmund.Grimley-Evans at arm.com> wrote: > I just got this error message from the GNU assembler: > > Error: alignment too large: 15 assumed

I just got this error message from the GNU assembler: Error: alignment too large: 15 assumed Which made me laugh at first. The corresponding input line was: .align 16 Apparently what's going on here is that ".align 16" is ambiguous: on some architectures it means ".balign 16", and on some it means ".p2align 16", which would mean ".balign 65536" if
