Hi Alex,

On the differences arm-none-eabi toolchain and arm-eabi toolchain, probably can find the explanation here(arm-eabi toolchain), one have c library , one is without depending on usage but it should not impact the memory address.

Was discussing this with my colleague and he mentioned that there should be a linker file in your project that contains the memory address for your app, by default it should be already 0x00100040

In the makefile there is this linker script that point to the linker file which contains the memory address

example:

https://github.com/altera-opensource/intel-socfpga-hwlib/blob/master/armv7a/hwlib/src/linkerscripts/cvav-ddr.ld#L10C7-L10C17

Probably can check the makefile to see what is the address it is using.

By the way, glad that you manage to found a workaround to the issue on the address.

Thanks

Regards

Kian
