Struct ld_memory::MemorySection

pub struct MemorySection { /* private fields */ }

Implementations

impl MemorySection

pub fn new(name: &str, origin: u64, length: u64) -> MemorySection

pub fn offset(self, offset: u64) -> MemorySection

pub fn pagesize(self, pagesize: u64) -> MemorySection

pub fn slot(self, slot: usize, num_slots: usize) -> MemorySection

Divide memory section into slots.

This can be used to divide a memory section into multiple slots of equal size, e.g., for an active / passive image scheme on MCUs.

slot starts at zero for the first slot.

pub fn from_env(self) -> MemorySection

Read options from environment

This will evaluate the following environment variables:

Variable	Default
LDMEMORY_OFFSET	0
LDMEMORY_PAGESIZE	1
LDMEMORY_NUM_SLOTS	2
LDMEMORY_SLOT_OFFSET	0
LDMEMORY_SLOT	None

If an offset is given, the whole section will be offset and shortened by the given value. If a pagesize is given, the slots will start and end will be aligned at the pagesize. If a slot number is given, the remaining section will be divided into <prefix>_NUM_SLOTS slots, aligned to <prefix>_PAGESIZE, and the <prefix>_SLOTth (starting at 0) will be returned. If a slot offset is given, each slot will be offset and shortened by that value.

Note: from_env_with_prefix can be used to use a different prefix than the default prefix LDMEMORY_.

pub fn from_env_with_prefix(self, prefix: &str) -> MemorySection

Read slot options from environment with custom prefix

See from_env().

pub fn attrs(self, attrs: &str) -> MemorySection
