<p>The <code>literal_prefix</code> directive allows you to override the default
literal section names, which are derived from the names of the sections
where the literals are defined.
</p>
<div class="smallexample">
<pre class="smallexample">    .begin literal_prefix [<var>name</var>]
    .end literal_prefix
</pre></div>

<p>For literals defined within the delimited region, the literal section
names are derived from the <var>name</var> argument instead of the name of
the current section.  The rules used to derive the literal section names
do not change.  See <a href="Literal-Directive.html#Literal-Directive">literal</a>.  If the <var>name</var>
argument is omitted, the literal sections revert to the defaults.  This
directive has no effect when using the
&lsquo;<samp>--text-section-literals</samp>&rsquo; option (see <a href="Xtensa-Options.html#Xtensa-Options">Command-line Options</a>).
