Hi,
I'm using Arm DS Version: 2022.2 as a trial version.
I've no arm chip yet thus i'm using Cortex-M55 FVP.
I'm trying to write kind of a boot rom sw that runs and load another 'hello world' application into code and data to different execution addresses in memory.
After boot rom ends with loading the code and data into memory it jumps into the 'hello world' Reset_Handler address and starts execution.
So far so good, the 'hello world' begin to run but I've noticed that the "__scatterload_copy" from arm c library is overwriting the RW data section with default pattern of 0xDFDFDFCF.
As a result a "SystemCoreClock" variable from "system_ARMCM55.c" initial value is being overwritten from "0x17D7840" into 0xDFDFDFCF and code based on this variable isn't working as expected..
I would be happy to understand how to avoid the "__scatterload_copy" operation in order not to overwrite the data the boot rom already loaded into data memory?
Thanks,Ronen
Hi Ronan,I've also attached here a memory image diagram to show ther is no overlapping between boot rom and helloworld.
