How to insert NOP instruction in the specified address

Hi all

I have a normal 8051's code ,but i want insert NOP instruction in the specified address
without modify the original code (it meaning I didn't need to check LST file to find the address
and then insert a nop )

for example
The code before insert NOP:

02FF F1EA           4147             CALL    A_FUNC
0301 22             4148             RET

The code after insert NOP:

02FF 00             XXXX             NOP
0300 F1EB           4147             CALL    A_FUNC
0302 22             4148             RET

I try to put

ORG 2FFh
NOP

in the top or bottom of the code ,

In the top ,It will be overwritten , there is nothing change,
In the bottom , It will insert a NOP instruction, but destroyed the original instructions format

Does the compiler or linker can help to do this work ??
it also can say I want retain the specified location for NOP,
so compiler will skip it but still compiled correctly

Thanks a lot for you read this post , and please forgive my poor English

  • So why did you ask??

    Because I didn't previously know how to cross this road.

    You can stay standing by the side of the road if you want.

    I'm going to my new home on this side of the road after asking you how to get across the road with which I was not previously familiar, to the neighbourhood where I used to live, to go to the supermarket to get real cow milk, which I knew they stocked because I'd been there before, for my tea. Whew!
