Dear Team:
I'm using S32DS and I want to allocate my code and variables into specific memory area, however I did not find any description how to use mem and ld file.
Could you give an example how to do this?
Appreciate your support!
Best Regards,
Wang
Hi Wang,
at first, look at this example. There is shown, how to create section in linker file and how to place function to the created section.
Example MPC5748G PretendedNetworkingCAN S32DS_1.0
If you have any other questions, please feel free to write me back.

Dear Martin:
I got your example project and it's quite clear. Thanks.
Two further questions:
Q1) What is the meaning of the key word "KEEP"? Do we have some document about the key words of .ld file?
Q2) How to allocate a group of variables? For example, if I wrote as below:
__attribute__ ((section(".MyRamData"))) // place data below into .MyRamCode section
unsigned long my_test_data_0;
unsigned long my_test_data_1;
unsigned long my_test_data_2;
Then only my_test_data_0 was allocated into .MyRamData, however my_test_data_1/2 were allocated into default RAM area.
Do we have something like "#pragma CODE_SEG xxx" in legacy Codewarrior?
Thanks and Best Regards,
Wang
Hi Wang,
1) Detailed description is GNU Linker documentation
KEEP is the same as FORCEACTIVE in CodeWarrior. It will ensure that the section will not be stripped by linker garbage collector (for example if the section is unused).
2) You have to place __attribute__ above every line you want to place to the specified section. There is nothing like #pragma in CodeWarrior. But it is possible that linker will place the variables in different order. In that case, you can create structure and place the variables to this structure. Then you can place the structure to the specific section.

Martin
