Title: Moving start address of program
Post by mephisto on Jan 13^th, 2020 at 12:28pm

Hi all,

I am working with an Arduino Due, and I need to make my program start at memory address 0xA0000. I used the linker flag

-Wl,-section-start=.text=0xA0000

to successfully change the address of the the .text section of the compiled ELF file. However, after uploading, the Arduino does not run any code, so I think it is stuck at 0x80000 (default address) with no code to run.

How can I make my program start running from 0xA0000?

Thanks.

It is best to ask general mcu architecture questions in the forum for the board you have. In your case that will be the forum at arduino.cc
