Hi,
In my Cortex-M0 project, there are two program images residing at different memory locations: 0x0000_0000 and 0x0010_0000. Each program has its own vector table. M0 will boot from the program at 0x0010_0000 then switch to the other program (0x0000_0000) at the end.
What is the correct way to switch to the porgram at 0x0000_0000? I'm not sure whether the following instructions are correct or not.
LDR R6, =0x1 ; set R6 to 0x0000_0001 due to Thumb mode
LDR R0, [R6]
MOV SP, R0
LDR R1, [R6, #4]
BX R1
Can someone please point me the right implementation? Thanks a lot.
Now, this question keeps occupying my mind.
If you're only going to copy code to the RAM, then you could also do one of these things:
If you're interested in solution #3, I could send you an example linker-script and some startup-code. I could also write a document about it.
Hey Jens,
I am trying to write a bootloader for cortex M0 processor and I am interested to follow the #3 route you mention in your previous comment. Could you please send me some guidelines or sample documents on linker script and vector jump code, if possible. Thanks!
Regards,
Sharif
