// Some of the code in this file is run without static initialization expected
// by C/C++. Any accesses to statically initialized objects/variables before
// memory is initialized will result in undefined values and violates the C
// specification. Only code run after memory initialization is complete will be
// compliant and truly safe to run. In general, make early initialization code
// run AFTER memory initialization has completed unless it is ABSOLUTELY
// NECESSARY to modify the way memory is initialized.
//
// This file is similar to a traditional assembly startup file. It turns out
// that everything typically done in ARMv7-M assembly startup can be done
// straight from C code. This makes startup code easier to maintain, modify,
// and read.
//
// When execution begins due to SoC power-on (or the device is reset), three
// key things must happen to properly enter C++ execution context:
// 1. Static variables must be loaded from flash to RAM.
// 2. Zero-initialized variables must be zero-initialized.
// 3. Statically allocated objects must have their constructors run.
// The SoC doesn't inherently have a notion of how to do this, so this is
// handled in StaticInit();
//
// Following this, execution is handed over to pw_PreMainInit() to facilitate
// platform, project, or application pre-main initialization. When
// pw_PreMainInit() returns, main() is executed.
//
// The simple flow is as follows:
// 1. Power on
// 2. PC and SP set (from vector_table by SoC, or by bootloader)
// 3. pw_BootEntry()
// 3.1. Static-init RAM (.data, .bss, C++ constructors)
// 3.2. pw_PreMainInit()
// 3.3. main()
