Meaning of mem_section_dummy_ram and mem_section_dummy_rom

[naman.trivedi]

I am developing application on nRF52832 with SDK14. I came across mem_section_dummy_rom and mem_section_dummy_ram sections in the linker script in the example codes. I couldn't find documentation regarding these sections.

Can somebody explain me the meaning and requirement of these two sections in the linker file?

Hi!

Could you tell me which example you were using?

Also, are you using SDK v14.0.0? Or one of the later ones?

Cheers.

Consider ble_central/ble_app_blinky_c example from SDK14.2.0

Hi!
Sorry for the delay.

It looks like these sections is simply used as placeholders, so I couldn't find any documentation regarding these.

Cheers.
