Compiler/CCSTUDIO-SITARA: C++ function reallocated in specific section

Part Number: CCSTUDIO-SITARA

Tool/software: TI C/C++ Compiler

Hi,

My configuration is the following one:

- Sitara ARM3359
- Code Composer Studio version CCS 7.1.0.00014
- SYS/BIOS 6.45.0.20 Real Time Operating System
- XDC Tool 3.31.00.24
- Compiler GNU v4.9.3 (Linaro)
- NDK 2.24.3.35
- Sysbios sdk 2.1.1.2
- software Texas Instrument ecat_appl with beckoff path v5.11

My code was written in C++ language.

I have created two sections (SECURE_DATA and SECURE_CODE placed at  0x83f00170 adress) to force the linker to place speciphic codeand datas in speciphic section.

I have a c++ object: m_safety, and i allocate it (the datas) in the SECURE_DATA section by using an attribute:

• SafetyBlock m_safety __attribute__((section("SECURE_DATA")));

I can see the effect in the map file:

SECURE_CODE     0x830f00000      0x170
                0x83f00000                . = ALIGN (0x4)
 *(SECURE_CODE*)
 SECURE_CODE    0x83f00000      0x128 .safetyCpp.o
....

 *(SECURE_DATA*)
 SECURE_DATA    0x83000170    0x625b8 .SafetyCpp.o
                0x83000170                m_safety
                0x83000c78                m_ci

My question: is it possible to map one single c++ object function in this section ?

For exemple, execute in SECURE_CODE section only the lonely InitParam() function in the code below:

Safety.h
class SafetyBlock
{
    public:
        SafetyBlock(void);
        virtual ~SafetyBlock();

        void InitializeRef(void);  // executing it in standart adress (0x80000000)
        bool InitParam(void);    // I want to execute it in SECURE_CODE section (0x83000000)
}
----------------------------------------------------------------

Safety.cpp

SafetyBlock::SafetyBlock(void)
{
}

SafetyBlock::~SafetyBlock()
{
}

void SafetyBlock::InitializeRef(void)
{
 ....

}

// Init Parameters
bool SafetyBlock::InitParam(void)    // I want to execute it in SECURE_CODE section (0x83000000)
{

...

}

---------------------------------------------------------

Do anyone know the syntax to force the execution of InitParam in the SECURE_CODE section ?

Thanks.
