Posted on July 06, 2015 at 17:41I'm having an issue allocating space for a heap.
The version of the linker I'm using is 7.40.3.8902
Here's a extract from the linker icf file.
define symbol RAM_HEAP_start = 0x20018000;
define symbol RAM_HEAP_end = 0x2001BFFF;
define symbol __ICFEDIT_size_heap__ = 0x2000;
define region RAM_HEAP_region = mem:[from RAM_HEAP_start to RAM_HEAP_end];
define block HEAP with alignment = 8, size = __ICFEDIT_size_heap__ { };
place in RAM_HEAP_region { block HEAP };
I get the following error:
Error[Lp011]: section placement failed
unable to allocate space for sections/blocks with a total estimated minimum size of 0x2000 bytes (max align 0x8) in <[0x20018000-0x2001bfff]> (total uncommitted space 0x0).
RAM_HEAP_region should define a space for 0x4000 bytes.
__ICFEDIT_size_heap__ = 0x2000 which should fit quite nicely. reducing the number to 0x1d18 finally links.
Anyone have any ideas what I might be doing wrong?
Thanks, Kirem
