Usage fault when executing code complied with GCC 10 but not with GCC 7

[djix123]

The following example causes a usage fault when built with GCC 10, but reverting back to GCC 7 fixes the problem. The fault occurs when executing the 2nd delay in loop(), or directly thereafter.

#include  < Arduino.h >
#include "Arduino_LED_Matrix.h"

ArduinoLEDMatrix matrix;

void setup() {
    Serial.begin(115200);
    matrix.begin();
}

const uint32_t happy[] = {
        0x19819,
        0x80000001,
        0x81f8000
};
const uint32_t heart[] = {
        0x3184a444,
        0x44042081,
        0x100a0040
};

void loop(){
    matrix.loadFrame(happy);
    delay(500);
    matrix.loadFrame(heart);
    delay(500);
}

with platformio.ini

[env:uno_r4_wifi]
platform = renesas-ra
;platform = https://github.com/platformio/platform-renesas-ra.git@1.0.2
board = uno_r4_wifi

Hi @djix123, could you please also test with the latest GCC v12?

[env:uno_r4_wifi]
platform = renesas-ra
;platform = https://github.com/platformio/platform-renesas-ra.git@1.0.2
board = uno_r4_wifi
framework = arduino
platform_packages =
    toolchain-gccarmnoneeabi @ ~1.120301.0

[djix123]

I tried with GCC v12. I faults out even earlier - shortly after the call to hal_entry()

[valeros]

Hi there, could you please also try the following toolchain package:

[env:uno_r4_wifi]
platform = renesas-ra
framework = arduino
board = uno_r4_wifi
platform_packages = 
    toolchain-gccarmnoneeabi @ 1.70201.0
