• xmemory specifies X address space, which includes all of region data below the address __YDATA_BASE as defined in the linker script
• ymemory specifies Y address space, which includes all of region data above the address __YDATA_BASE as defined in the linker script
• align() specifies alignment of the section starting address
• reverse() specifies alignment of the section ending address + 1
• dma [DD] specifies dma address space, which includes the portion of region data between addresses __DMA_BASE and __DMA_END as defined in the linker script (dsPIC33F devices only).
• boot specifies the boot segment
• secure specifies the secure segment
