Autoinitializing variables at run time is the default method of autoinitialization. To use this method, invoke the linker with the --rom_model option. See Section 3.3.2.1 for details.
Initialization of variables at load time enhances performance by reducing boot time and by saving the memory used by the initialization tables. To use this method, invoke the linker with the --ram_model option. See Section 3.3.2.2 for details.
See Section 3.3.2.3 for information about the steps that are performed when you invoke the linker with the --ram_model or --rom_model option.
