   Hi @hartmannathan,
   I am sorry that there is no progress on this, but I have limited free time 
lately.
   
   I am thinking of having the number of heap regions defined either in 
Kconfig, or in `board.h`.
   Then, the linkerscript shall define each region as heap1, heap2 etc. Like:
   
   ```
      .heap1 (NOLOAD) : ALIGN(4) {
           _sheap1 = ABSOLUTE(.);
           . = ORIGIN(h1ram) + LENGTH(h1ram);
           . = ALIGN(4);
           _eheap1 = ABSOLUTE(.);
       } > h1ram
   ```
   
   This way the user will be able to set up any memory layout that they like, 
with multiple heap regions in arbitrary positions.  
   It wouldn't matter whether each heap region lives within the same RAM bank 
or not.
