| <p><a name="index-_003d_0040var_007bfillexp_007d-426"></a><a name="index-section-fill-pattern-427"></a><a name="index-fill-pattern_002c-entire-section-428"></a>You can set the fill pattern for an entire section by using
 | |
| <span class="samp">=</span><var>fillexp</var>.  <var>fillexp</var> is an expression
 | |
| (see <a href="Expressions.html#Expressions">Expressions</a>).  Any otherwise unspecified regions of memory
 | |
| within the output section (for example, gaps left due to the required
 | |
| alignment of input sections) will be filled with the value, repeated as
 | |
| necessary.  If the fill expression is a simple hex number, ie. a string
 | |
| of hex digit starting with <span class="samp">0x</span> and without a trailing <span class="samp">k</span> or <span class="samp">M</span>, then
 | |
| an arbitrarily long sequence of hex digits can be used to specify the
 | |
| fill pattern;  Leading zeros become part of the pattern too.  For all
 | |
| other cases, including extra parentheses or a unary <code>+</code>, the fill
 | |
| pattern is the four least significant bytes of the value of the
 | |
| expression.  In all cases, the number is big-endian.
 | |
| 
 | |
|    <p>You can also change the fill value with a <code>FILL</code> command in the
 | |
| output section commands; (see <a href="Output-Section-Data.html#Output-Section-Data">Output Section Data</a>).
 | |
| 
 | |
|    <p>Here is a simple example:
 | |
| <pre class="smallexample">     SECTIONS { .text : { *(.text) } =0x90909090 }
 | |
| </pre>
 | |
|    </body></html>
