Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure provide a method for linking input files during a linking process. The method includes receiving an input section that is to be mapped to a memory segment by a linker circuit, determining whether an out-of-memory (OOM) event occurs when an available memory space of the memory segment is unable to accommodate the input section, estimating a memory expansion size that would be required for the memory segment to be able to accommodate the input section when an OOM event occurs, and creating by the linker circuit a map file that includes the estimated memory expansion size of the memory segment.
