13//config: Attempt to reclaim a small unused part of BSS.
14//config:
15//config: Executables have the following parts:
16//config: = read-only executable code and constants, also known as "text"
17//config: = read-write data
18//config: = non-initialized (zeroed on demand) data, also known as "bss"
19//config:
20//config: At link time, "text" is padded to a full page. At runtime, all "text"
21//config: pages are mapped RO and executable.
22//config: "Data" starts on the next page boundary, but is not padded
23//config: to a full page at the end. "Bss" starts wherever "data" ends.
24//config: At runtime, "data" pages are mapped RW and they are file-backed
25//config: (this includes a small portion of "bss" which may live in the last
26//config: partial page of "data").
27//config: Pages which are fully in "bss" are mapped to anonymous memory.
28//config:
29//config: "Bss" end is usually not page-aligned. There is an unused space
30//config: in the last page. Linker marks its start with the "_end" symbol.
31//config:
32//config: This option will attempt to use that space for bb_common_bufsiz1[]
33//config: array. If it fits after _end, it will be used, and COMMON_BUFSIZE
34//config: will be enlarged from its guaranteed minimum size of 1 kbyte.
35//config: This may require recompilation a second time, since value of _end
36//config: is known only after final link.
37//config:
38//config: If you are getting a build error like this:
39//config: appletlib.c:(.text.main+0xd): undefined reference to '_end'
40//config: disable this option.
