OK, I got it.
It has to be part of a J-Link script file. The script file can be passed by using the command line option -jlinkscriptfile which can be set in the eclipse debug configurations under the debugger tab.
See this link for instructions: https://wiki.segger.com/Eclipse#Using_J-Link_script_files
It works now as expected. Thanks again for pointing me to that
Hi Nino,
thanks for the valuable feedback. I checked the J-Link debugging configuration in Eclipse, but did not find the right place to put the "map exclude" command. Do you have a hint for that as well?
regards

Hi,
I am using J-Link and the GDB server for debugging ARM devices under Eclipse with GCC tool chain. I added external RAM to my linker script an realized that when loading my code with the debugger the complete external RAM section will be be loaded with data. Even though this RAM section does not need to be initialized with any data at all. I assume that J-Link is doing that for whatever reason. Is there a way to avoid that because it exceeds the download time quite significantly.
Any help on that is appreaciated.
