Hi Andy,

Thank you very much for your reply.

With the clue from u, the warning message was gone,
after using "extern" declaration for the symbol Counter.

Best regards,

I've not used GCC for donkeys years however if I were to guess given your
information I'd imagine it's possibly down to alignment 4 trying to ensure
that symbol Counter is on a 4 byte boundary and that in user.c it's
definition doesn't match - eg its re-defined short etc.
I'm sure there'll be someone on here though that's far more at home with GCC
that can give a better answer.

Hi All,

Have anyone encounter the warning message
as shown below (Using GCC compiler):

arm-thumb-elf/bin/ld:
Warning: alignment 4 of symbol "Counter" in .\obj\timer.o
is smaller than 32 in .\obj\user.o

Could you advise me what does the above mean?

By the way, are there any documentation for GCC's Warning or error
messages?

Thank you very much for spending time reading this message. :)

Hi All,

Have anyone encounter the warning message
as shown below (Using GCC compiler):

arm-thumb-elf/bin/ld:
Warning: alignment 4 of symbol "Counter" in .\obj\timer.o
is smaller than 32 in .\obj\user.o

Could you advise me what does the above mean?

By the way, are there any documentation for GCC's Warning or error
messages?

Thank you very much for spending time reading this message. :)
