Linker Configuration IAR Setting

[Gajanan]

Hello,

Getting above error if trying to debug and download code in IAR. is there any specific setting required for loader or linker configuration.

Controller : STM32H745XI 

External flash : MTQL512ABB

Please find linker details below:

place in QSPI_region { section ExtFlashSection };
place in QSPI_region { section TextFlashSection };
place in QSPI_region { section FontFlashSection };

Hello @Gajanan 

Which IAR version are you using?

Make sure to use the latest IAR version as it contains limitations fixes and enhancement.

Hello,

As I see I think you are using a custom loader. Are you sure about its implementation? The error doesn't seem to be linked to the linker but to the loader itself.

Try to test it with STM32CubeProgrammer using this method:
