Here's a terrible example:
http://icecube.wisc.edu/~dglo/c_class/const_vol.html
int
check_iobuf(void)
{
volatile int iobuf;
int val;
while (iobuf == 0) {
}
val = iobuf;
iobuf = 0;
return(val);
}
Unless I miss my guess, "iobuf" is an *auto*. It's
not mapped as a hardware register, no external
asynchronous process can change it.... it's on
the local stack...
I suppose you can have it be "extern volatile int iobuf" and
use the linker to put it in a hardware-interesting "segment"
but imagine the confusion promulgated by that bad example. it's
even apparently an infinite loop...
One compiler for 68000 used an "@" operator to
declare something as "int Thing = @0x50000;" for
this... I don't have an example and am working from memory.
