title: static and set_global together: how come?
body: <p>I see the following code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>static __SECTION("set_global")  struct something * p = NULL;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am confused. "static" means local scope, to this C file. Above the line there is comment about set_global: ELF section for global variables.</p>
  
  <p>So this basically makes variable p a global variable and can be accessed by any source code?</p>
