Using the section attribute

Hello,

I also explained my problem to the altera support and they came up with the following solution:

# include <stdio.h># include "altera_avalon_pio_regs.h"# include "system.h"# include "sys/alt_load.h"

extern void hello (void) __attribute__ ((section (".onchip_ram_64_kbytes")));

void hello()

{

printf("hello from Nios II!\n");

}

int main()

{

IOWR_ALTERA_AVALON_PIO_DATA(LED_PIO_BASE, 0x11);

printf("hi\n");

ALT_LOAD_SECTION_BY_NAME(onchip_ram_64_kbytes);

hello();

return 0;

}

I&#39;ve tried it and it works fine. By doing this I don&#39;t need to study the linker script.

thanks for your help,

Dolphin
