Bug ID: 69382 Summary: noinit() Product: gcc Version: unknown Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: svabiramiece at gmail dot com Target Milestone: --- Hello, I am using Atmel Studio 7. The GNU c compiler version used in the Studio is 4.9.2. I have doubts regarding .noinit() section. Before asking my doubts I want to clarify something. Please check the below statements are correct or not 1. The variable stored in I/O and Extended I/O register space purely depends on the compiler. The user can’t have the access to store the variables in this section. 2.The variables stored in the noinit() shouldn’t be initialized to zero at any concern. On any reset, the variables in the noinit section shouldn’t be initialized to zero. 3. The noinit() should be given in the linker script before compiling. Looking forward for your reply.
