paddrSS

unsigned long paddrSS( void * pointer );

Description

Convert a logical pointer into its physical address. This function assumes the pointer points to data in the stack segment, which eliminates some runtime testing compared with the more general function, paddr(). The stack segment is used to store auto data items. This function will generate incorrect results if used for addresses in the root code (i.e. program code or constants), data (i.e. statically allocated variables), or xmem segments.

Parameters

pointer

The pointer to convert, pointing to stack (auto) data.

Return value

The physical address of the pointer.

Library

XMEM.LIB
