Thanks Ludo,
I'll take that as a starting point. I hope I will not need the "lost"
256 bytes in the future.
I could be wrong but AFAIK if the compiler would do the alignment, the loss
can also be up to 255 bytes. Here you lose 256 bytes in all cases.
Yes, but this would allow the linker to place other stuff there which
fits in less than 255 bytes.
Wasting 255 bytes is a lot on systems that only has a few kilobytes of
RAM. I wonder if the restriction of 32 bytes on the align directive
could just be removed, or will we need some sort of linker script changes?
