TF-M memory usage in GNU ARM compiler

TF-M build system uses the linker option "-Wl,--print-memory-usage" when the GNUARM compiler is selected. This option prints the used size, total size and percentage of used memory per each memory regions. This is useful on embedded targets to have a quick view of amount of free memory. The format of the output has one headline and one line per region. It is both human readable and easily parsable by tools.

More information about this linker option can be found in here.

An example of TF-M output can be found below, when TF-M is compiled with:

  • Musca A (" -DTARGET_PLATFORM=MUSCA_A ")
  • GNUARM (" -DCOMPILER=GNUARM ")
  • Default configuration (" -DPROJ_CONFIG='readlink -f ../ConfigDefault.cmake' ")
  • TF-M master branch, commit SHA → 9da91f3017f8f9b4e32e511d3b0cfba1b0fdd86e
$> cmake -G"Unix Makefiles" -DPROJ_CONFIG=`readlink -f ../ConfigDefault.cmake` -DTARGET_PLATFORM=MUSCA_A -DCOMPILER=GNUARM ../; make
