Okay I understand all that and accept my apology and I will try to follow the
rules exactly in future.
I had to change the alignment command slightly to be valid on ARM 6.3.1
struct __attribute__((__packed__,aligned(__alignof(uint32_t))))TimerRegisters {
volatile uint32_t Load; //0x00
volatile uint32_t Value; //0x04
};
I am getting viable code with that, so it's undeniable it is an alignment
issue.
I am happy to have that as the solution and I understand it is the most
technically correct. It probably needs to be added to the manual because I
suspect it is going to come up a lot. I have never had the compiler spit
unaligned code as the most optimized code before.
