There is a bug in the linker script provided for the LM3S811 demo.
SECTIONS
{
.text :
{
KEEP(*(.isr_vector))
*(.text)
*(.rodata*)
_etext = .;
} > FLASH
.data : AT (ADDR(.text) + SIZEOF(.text))
{
_data = .;
*(vtable)
*(.data)
_edata = .;
} > SRAM
.bss :
{
_bss = .;
*(.bss)
*(COMMON)
_ebss = .;
} > SRAM
The text section placement is wrong - it should be *(.text*).
Attached is the corrected version tested with gcc 4.9.3.
