Memory Size is Expressed in 16 Bits

The memory sizes mentioned in the linker cmd files, .map files are all expressed in 16 bits. The sizeof() function always returns the size with respect to smallest addressable memory units (8 bits for Arm and 16 bits for C28x).

Be careful to not hardcode the size information in the application. One common scenario is while using memset/cpy/cmp functions, the size parameter to these functions are in terms of smallest addressable units.

Also, note the difference in data packing after memset usage:
