Which ARM processor and which GCC version, which compilation switches?
I beg to differ. The following snippet of an interrupt handler is
compiled (GCC 4.8.2) for a Cortex-M4 with the compilation switches
-Os -mthumb -mcpu=cortex-m4:
C snippet:
switch (rstate)
{
case RXHUNT:
break;
case RXB0:
rcvb0(ch);
break;
case RXB0Q:
rcvb0q(ch);
break;
case RXB1:
rcvb1(ch);
break;
case RXB1Q:
rcvb1q(ch);
break;
case RXDATA:
rcvdata(ch);
break;
case RXQUOT:
rcvqdata(ch);
break;
default:
rstate = RIDLE;
break;

There is not a single system or compiler support library call.
Even the local functions have been inlined.

To make a piece of code to reside in RAM, just declare it into
a section which is linked together with the .data section:
#define RAMCODE __attribute__((section(".ramcode")))
#define LONGCALL __attribute__((long_call))
#define NOINLINE __attribute__((noinline))
#define RAMFUNC NOINLINE LONGCALL RAMCODE
static RAMFUNC void my_ram_function(void)
{
/* My RAM code here */
;
}
Snippet of associated linker script:
/* Initialized data with ROM copy */
.data :
{
_rwstart = . ;
*(.ramcode)
*(.data*)
. = ALIGN(4);
_rwend = . ;
} > ram AT > flash
The .data initialization code at start will set up the code
into proper place in RAM.
