As the compiler allows for assigning a string to a pchar, the strings 
need to be compatible to C strings. Thus:
  - The content starts at the location the pchar points to and fills 
consecutive addresses
  - a $0 character is appended after the last relevant character.

Of course the OS is free to use the mapped hardware RAM address in a way 
that for DMA the string content might come in separate chunks.

Is this what you mean ?
