CCS: "CODEGEN-6655" regression in TI compiler v18.12.5.LTS

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Having just rebuilt a project originally compiling on 18.12.2.LTS without warnings, I now get the same "Use of variable-length arrays is not thread-safe" warning on 18.12.5.LTS, with AFAIK no meaningful changes (aside from the usual noise in project files when transitioning CCS versions).

CODEGEN-6655 is supposedly fixed in 18.12.4.LTS. Is it a regression or should I actually be worried?

  • I presume you use the TI ARM compiler.

    Among the version 18.12.x.LTS releases, the problem is present only on version 18.12.3.LTS.  That is why you see this behavior ...

    That this happens ...

    ... is a different thing.  Either you really use VLA (variable length arrays), or this is a different problem.

    Please post the linker map file from this problem build.  So that the forum will accept it, please add the file extension .txt to it.

    Thanks and regards,
