Using the section attribute

Correct.

Ok ... but your code won't magically copy itself ... you'll need to do it yourself in your

application. This is normally done with a custom linker script that will set the output section's

LMA to a location in flash (normally adjacent to your 'standard' stuff) and defines a few

symbols so you can deterime the source/destination address and length.

There are also a few hacks you can play with prior to a custom linker script. E.g. set the LMA to

be adjacent to .bss (via objcopy) and use _end as the source address of your copy. The destination

address and length can be hardcoded to match your on-chip ram.
