Micro controller : SPC584B
We tried configuring the DMEM Processor local RAM for SPC584B Microcontroller.(Attaching the DMEM Memory layout) (We have configured it outside BAF region)
We tried pushing initialized global variables to this section. We have changed the linker so that the initial values are stored in ROM.
During initialisation, the initial values in ROM are not getting copied to the RAM section.
StartUp code change:
/* Copy data sections
** Note: the "-1" on the start and end addresses is there because
** stbu updates before storing.
*/
lis r3, OS_hi((_DATADMEM_START_-1))
addi r3, r3, OS_lo((_DATADMEM_START_-1)) /* Start of data section */
lis r4, OS_hi((_DATADMEM_END_-1))
addi r4, r4, OS_lo((_DATADMEM_END_-1)) /* Limit of data section */
lis r5, OS_hi((_DMEM_-1))
addi r5, r5, OS_lo((_DMEM_-1)) /* Start of initial values in ROM */
b __copy_data
__copy_loop:
lbzu r0,1(r5)
stbu r0,1(r3)
__copy_data:
cmpw r3, r4
bne __copy_loop
We are also seeing that after a power ON-OFF, the Micro is reseting when this new RAM section is accessed.
