As I mentioned in comment #25 and elsewhere, I envisioned that code would annotate these hardwired addresses somehow, ideally using an attribute like addr or the Keil compiler's at (see below), or until one is added, using a workaround like your absolute_pointer(). I realize it means work, but I believe with the attribute the gain in type safety would make it worthwhile= .=20 Is that something the kernel developers could be trained to start using? (= In full disclosure, I don't expect to have the cycles to work on the attribute anytime soon.) https://www.keil.com/support/man/docs/armcc/armcc_chr1359124981140.htm=
