[arm-gnu] Placing variable at absolute address in RAM

[42Bastian]

Hi

This one is locally used.

> unsigned char *hello  __attribute__ ((section(".sram1")));                                                        /*this variable's name appears in mapfile*/

This one is global.

Try removing the "static".

BTW: Instead of adding "__attribute__" to every static, you might do

 .sram1 : {
  *lwIP.o(.data)
 } > SRAM1 AT > FLASH

But you must place this before the common

	*.o(.data)
