ERROR CM7 region 'RAM' overlowed by 139396 bytes
Compiler indicates that there is not enough memory. however the H7-CM7 has 512k, What's wrong?

Thanks,
I have change the LinkerScript.ld to 512K
Everything works fine :)
Maybe an idea to set that default to 512K in CubeMx generated code, or add a user setting
RAM (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x24000000, LENGTH = 512K /* Memory is divided. Actual start is 0x24000000 and actual length is 512K */

I dont see your question simply your RAM have 256K and code use more. You need rewrite code to use too other ram parts or change this definition
RAM (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x24000000, LENGTH = 256K /* Memory is divided. Actual start is 0x24000000 and actual length is 512K */
FLASH (rx) : ORIGIN = 0x08000000, LENGTH = 1024K /* Memory is divided. Actual start is 0x8000000 and actual length is 2048K */
DTCMRAM (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x20000000, LENGTH = 128K
RAM_D2 (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x30000000, LENGTH = 288K
RAM_D3 (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x38000000, LENGTH = 64K
ITCMRAM (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x00000000, LENGTH = 64K

Perhaps approach the problem by looking at what is consuming the memory.
Large static allocations? Can they be directed into other RAM regions or folded.
You could expand the RAM size in the Linker Script so that the Linker can get closure and generate a .MAP file for review/analysis
