Urgent - Keil uVision code limit reached

Avoid large static allocations, if you have large structures, expand the heap and malloc() them.

It is the linker limit sadly.

So I found a couple of potential startup file replacements:

Okay it turns out I found the solution myself thanks to this link:

You'd need a newlib_stubs.c type file to handle the stdio/heap, with your own routines to implement USART/SWV IO
