Is there a way to prevent the C compiler from generating ldrd instructions (which assume 64-bit alignment)

I'm using the GCC compiler to load packed 16-bit data (i.e. two 16-bit words in a 32-bit value). My pointer is to a 32-bit type because I want to load two 16-bit values in a single cycle but the pointer...

How to force string (rodata.str) alignment with ARM 6.6.3

Hi is there a way to force constant strings to be aligned on 4 byte boundary? For example: createTask("Taskname"); I tried the linker option "OVERALIGN", but it just generates a warning. Cheers...
