Attempting to access object in assembler

When I pass an object such as an image to an @micropython.asm_thumb method, what does the number represent?
Is it a pointer to the underlying object, or is it a pointer to some sort of micro python object handle?
If it’s a pointer, are some types of memory protected so you cannot access them?

I’ve tried passing an image hoping I get a reference to an image_t, but when I access the memory at the passed pointer it always returns 0.

Hi, I just added a new feature to the latest firmware where you can do .bytearray() to get a bytearray ref of the image which allows read or write of the underlying data. Attached is a firmware image for the H7 you can use.

This will be out in the next release.
