Hi, I'm trying to place the constant swapIndicator on a specific address on top of the flash memory. My C code looks like:
const int16_t swapIndicator __attribute__((at(0x0003FFFC)));
Then I link with this scatter file:
| R_IROM1 0x00000000 0x00040000 { | ; load region size_region |
ER_IROM1 0x00000000 0x00040000 { ; load address = execution address
*.o (RESET, +First)
*(InRoot$$Sections)
.ANY (+RO)
}
RW_IRAM1 0x1FFF0000 0x00010000 { ; RW data
.ANY (+RW +ZI)
}
}
Now, the linker gives me this error:
Error: L6220E: Load region LR_IROM1 size (262156 bytes) exceeds limit (262144 bytes). Region contains 258448 bytes of padding and 0 bytes of veneers (total 258448 bytes of linker generated content).
I would expect the int16_t swapIndicator to fit in the last 4 bytes of the flash memory area. Why not? The map file shows the placement as expected..., but anyway, there is an error.
Map file:

Why is there this error and how to avoid it?
