Memory Alignment - Cortex-R5

thanospyth

Hello,

I am trying to compile a very simple code that uses the function "aligned_alloc", using ARM Toolchain "gcc-arm-none-eabi-7" but every time I am receiving the error bellow

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

the code I am trying to compile is

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(void)
{
	char *str = aligned_alloc(32, 256);
	printf("Data aligned: %p",(void*) str);
	return 0;
}

Do you have any suggestion on how to fix the problem?

Thank you,
Thanos
