我知道最新的STM32微控制器中的RAM存储器包含几个具有明显速度差异的部分。这就是为什么我要全神贯注于这些设备的链接描述文件(请注意:arm-none-eabi-gcc
工具链)。不幸的是,由CubeMX为 STM32F767ZI 生成的链接描述文件只是忽略了RAM中的不同部分:
/* Specify the memory areas */
MEMORY
{
RAM (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x20000000, LENGTH = 512K
FLASH (rx) : ORIGIN = 0x8000000, LENGTH = 2048K
}
意法半导体似乎已经做出了一些努力,以使其最新的 STM32H743ZI 的链接描述更加复杂:
/* Specify the memory areas */
MEMORY
{
DTCMRAM (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x20000000, LENGTH = 128K
RAM_D1 (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x24000000, LENGTH = 512K
RAM_D2 (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x30000000, LENGTH = 288K
RAM_D3 (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x38000000, LENGTH = 64K
ITCMRAM (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x00000000, LENGTH = 64K
FLASH (rx) : ORIGIN = 0x8000000, LENGTH = 2048K
}
但是,当我进一步查看链接描述文件时,似乎他们将所有内容都塞入了DTCMRAM
中!所有其他部分均未使用...
这是完整的链接描述:

这是否意味着RAM中的所有其他部分仍未使用?他们到底为什么要这样做?
如果您可以改进此链接描述文件(并使其他RAM部分有用),请复制并粘贴您的改进内容。我会很感激。另请说明如何真正地在C源代码(或C ++源代码)中确定某些数据最终在RAM中的位置。对我来说还是有点神秘
答案 0 :(得分:3)
使用gcc
,您可以向变量添加 section属性。基于此,该变量然后被移至特定的会话。
作为一个例子。假设您的阵列很大:
#define BUF_SIZE 2048
__attribute__ ((section(".buffers"), used))
uint8_t pipe_buffer[BUF_SIZE];
然后将 section 添加到加载程序脚本并将其分配到特定的内存区域(在这种情况下为 RAM_D3 ):
.buffers(NOLOAD) : {
. = ALIGN(4);
*(.buffers*)
} > RAM_D3
这样,缓冲区就结束在 RAM_D3 中。
