Part Number:CC1310
Hi,
In another product I made, I have declared a section in the linker to be able to "send" some informations from the application to the bootloader program. As follows:
SECTIONS
{
.text :
{
// Content removed to save post space
} > FLASH = 0xFF
.boot_info_section 0x7F800:
{
KEEP(*(.boot_info_section*))
} > FLASH
// Content removed to save post space
}
The struct is that one:
typedef struct __attribute__((packed)){
u8 magic_word[4];
u32 bin_size;
u32 bin_addr;
u32 error_status;
} boot_info_t;
And in the bootloader I have:
#define BOOT_INFO_SECTION_ADDRESS 0x7F800
const boot_info_t * boot_info = (boot_info_t *)BOOT_INFO_SECTION_ADDRESS;
I would like to do the same thing in the CC1310 as well.
Today my linker looks like this:
/* The starting address of the application. Normally the interrupt vectors */
/* must be located at the beginning of the application. */
#define FLASH_PAGE_SIZE 4096
#define FLASH_BASE 0x7000
#define FLASH_SIZE (FLASH_PAGE_SIZE * 25)
#define RAM_BASE 0x20000000
#define RAM_SIZE 0x5000
/* System memory map */
MEMORY
{
/* Application stored in and executes from internal flash */
FLASH (RX) : origin = FLASH_BASE, length = FLASH_SIZE
/* Application uses internal RAM for data */
SRAM (RWX) : origin = RAM_BASE, length = RAM_SIZE
}
/* Section allocation in memory */
SECTIONS
{
.text : > FLASH
.const : > FLASH
.constdata : > FLASH
.rodata : > FLASH
.cinit : > FLASH
.pinit : > FLASH
.init_array : > FLASH
.emb_text : > FLASH
.ccfg : > FLASH (HIGH)
#ifdef __TI_COMPILER_VERSION__
#if __TI_COMPILER_VERSION__ >= 15009000
.TI.ramfunc : {} load=FLASH, run=SRAM, table(BINIT)
#endif
#endif
.data : > SRAM
.bss : > SRAM
.sysmem : > SRAM
.stack : > SRAM (HIGH)
.nonretenvar : > SRAM
}
I am trying to insert a similiar thing as ".boot_info_section 0x7F800: { KEEP(*(.boot_info_section*)) } > FLASH", but I can't compile it.
Can someone help with the correct way to do that?
Also, I need to define a known and SAFE (no conflict with RTOS objects) address in flash to save it.
