7249 - Propel: Why is my Linker Script Section Name unable to map to the instantiated memory region?
Description:
In Lattice Propel v2023.1, you may encounter a scenario where the Linker Script Section Name is unable to map to the pre-defined memory region.
Solution:
To workaround this issue, avoid using Linker "Section Name" as the first word of the System Memory instance's name.
Example: if you name System Memory as "data_mem_inst", you will observe an empty value at the .data section.
This issue is scheduled to be fixed in a future release of Lattice Propel Software.
