Hi,

I am trying to load address of a C variable to register R3 using inline assembly using arm-none-eabi-gcc toolchain for cortex m4 microcontroller.

I am able to load the value of the variable but not sure how to load the address of variable. Any tips ?


C: 
volatile uint32_t val = 100;


asm("ldr    r3, %[value]"
    :
    : [value]"m"   (val) /* How to copy address of val to r3 ?*/
    : /* No clobbers */
   );
 

How to access C variable for inline assembly manipulation?

Given this code: #include <stdio.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { int x = 1; printf("Hello x = %d\n", x); } I'd like to access and manipulate the variable x in inline assembly.
