I have done that by using the ".sram" section defined in "arm.ld" but I'm
having error building.
Most errors are at the following statment
in ".sram"
ldr sp,.__undef_exception_stack // get good stack
in ".text"
PTR(__undef_exception_stack)

It should just be a case of adding
.section ".mysection","ax" before the exception handling code in the
architecture vectors.S and then add a section in the memory layout and
architecture .ld file. The linker should deal with the relocations. Don't
forget to put a ".text" back after the code you've relocated.
