Hi,
I am using '2837xD_FLASH_CLA_lnk_cpu1.cmd' linker file to run my application code in which i have created a float buffer array inside a CLA to monitor a sine wave. The problem is that i am getting following error
" "C:/ti/C2000Ware_1_00_06_00_Software/device_support/f2837xd/common/cmd/2837xD_FLASH_CLA_lnk_cpu1.cmd", line 164: error #10099-D: program will not fit into available memory. run placement with alignment/blocking fails for section ".bss_cla" size 0x82e page 0."
I searched the forum and found multiple suggestions to merge RAM but for CLA, if i am not wrong, i dont have other options than using RAMLSx? I tried to merge RAMLS0 and RAMLS1, but no result. Please guide accordingly. Here is my linker file.

Hi,
CLA RAM has access to LS RAMs. But you need to configure the Memconfig module accordingly. You can refer to the to CLA example available in C2000ware on how CLA is given owner permissions for LS RAMs.
You also need to make sure that those LS RAMs are not being used by other non-CLA related sections.

Hi,
Are you saying even after merging LS0 and LS1, you still get the error which says unable to allocate memory?
You can look at the .map file generated by the CCS, check the actual size of the section, and see the size of the unused memory in the LS RAMs and allocate accordingly.
Regards,
Veena
Hi Veena,
Thanks for the feedback. There was a mistake in merging RAMLS0 and RAMLS1 which I found out in .map file. Thanks a lot
