Cube32 generates __RAMFUNC error

Posted on March 30, 2018 at 22:14

I have compile problems with TrueStudio.  The code generated by Cube 32 gives an error (needs ',' etc) before the Flash memory routines.  I'm not using them that I know of, so it may be a setting I am not familiar with.  However, without fixing those errors, the code does not compile.

The definition

#define __RAM_FUNC  HAL_StatusTypeDef  __attribute__((section('.RamFunc')))

is located in stm32f4xx_hal_def.h, and is called specifically by :  stm32f4xx_hal_flash_ramfunc.c

for example:

__RAM_FUNC HAL_StatusTypeDef HAL_FLASHEx_EnableFlashSleepMode(void)

The appropriate references in stm32f4xx_hal_flash_ramfunc.c refer to properly to stm32f4xx_hal_def.h.

However, the difficulty is in the definition of RAMFUNC, which has an extra HAL_StatusTypeDef in the macro expansion. 

The macro thus expands to:

HAL_StatusTypeDef  __attribute__((section('.RamFunc'))) HAL_StatusTypeDef HAL_FLASHEx_EnableFlashSleepMode(void)

causing errors.  Changing the 4 functions affected to:

__attribute__((section('.RamFunc'))) HAL_StatusTypeDef HAL_FLASHEx_EnableFlashSleepMode(void)

allows the program to compile.

Removing this allows the program to compile.  However, any changes made to Cube 32 regenerates the bad code. 

This may have come in with a particular update, or it may be an assumption made in TrueStudio.

Anyone run into this?
