This is for the RP2040. I am aware that Astrobe for Cortex-M0 does not yet officially support this MCU. Background, concepts, solution approach, as well as measurements and results related to my use case are described here: https://oberon-rtk.org/examples/codeloading/ In a nutshell, interrupt handle...

What is the best way to copy a procedure, eg. from Flash memory to RAM? For example: MODULE M; PROCEDURE p0; END p0; PROCEDURE p1; END P1; END M. Getting the procedure's starting address is straight forward, but how to detect its ending address? Scanning for 'pop' is not safe, as any relevant consta...
