4   Relocate code, data, or bss sections using a custom linker script.

6Overview
7********
8A simple example that demonstrates how relocation of code, data or bss sections
9using a custom linker script.
10
11Differently from the code relocation sample, this sample is relocating the
12content of the ext_code.c file to a different FLASH section and the code is XIP
13directly from there without the need to copy / relocate the code. All other code
14(e.g. main(), Zephyr kernel) stays in the internal flash.
