STM32CubeIDE generated xxx_FLASH.ld file does not include ALIGN(4) in some FLASH sections

Hi @Khouloud ZEMMELI

I generated C code and other files after opening .IOC file in STM32CubeIDE (not STM32CubeMX).

I observe many FLASH sections in the STM32H753BITX_FLASH.ld file do not call ALIGN(4).

The left side file is the one that got generated after generating code, where is the right side file is the one that I have received from my colleague.

I hereby request that STM32CubeMX be updated to include the ALIGN(4) wherever necessary.

Regards,

Rajeev

It probably should align things, as the ARM ABI has expectations, and it is more efficient. CM0(+) prone to Hard Fault on misalignment, and a lot of the STM32 have 32, 64, 128-bit FLASH lines
