1STMicroelectronics STM32MP1 2=========================== 3 4STM32MP1 is a microprocessor designed by STMicroelectronics 5based on a dual Arm Cortex-A7. 6It is an Armv7-A platform, using dedicated code from TF-A. 7The STM32MP1 chip also embeds a Cortex-M4. 8More information can be found on `STM32MP1 Series`_ page. 9 10 11Design 12------ 13The STM32MP1 resets in the ROM code of the Cortex-A7. 14The primary boot core (core 0) executes the boot sequence while 15secondary boot core (core 1) is kept in a holding pen loop. 16The ROM code boot sequence loads the TF-A binary image from boot device 17to embedded SRAM. 18 19The TF-A image must be properly formatted with a STM32 header structure 20for ROM code is able to load this image. 21Tool stm32image can be used to prepend this header to the generated TF-A binary. 22 23At compilation step, BL2, BL32 and DTB file are linked together in a single 24binary. The stm32image tool is also generated and the header is added to TF-A 25binary. This binary file with header is named tf-a-stm32mp157c-ev1.stm32. 26It can then be copied in the first partition of the boot device. 27 28 29Memory mapping 30~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 31 32:: 33 34 0x00000000 +-----------------+ 35 | | ROM 36 0x00020000 +-----------------+ 37 | | 38 | ... | 39 | | 40 0x2FFC0000 +-----------------+ \ 41 | | | 42 | ... | | 43 | | | 44 0x2FFD8000 +-----------------+ | 45 | TF-A DTB | | Embedded SRAM 46 0x2FFDC000 +-----------------+ | 47 | BL2 | | 48 0x2FFEF000 +-----------------+ | 49 | BL32 | | 50 0x30000000 +-----------------+ / 51 | | 52 | ... | 53 | | 54 0x40000000 +-----------------+ 55 | | 56 | | Devices 57 | | 58 0xC0000000 +-----------------+ \ 59 | | | 60 0xC0100000 +-----------------+ | 61 | BL33 | | Non-secure RAM (DDR) 62 | ... | | 63 | | | 64 0xFFFFFFFF +-----------------+ / 65 66 67Boot sequence 68~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 69 70ROM code -> BL2 (compiled with BL2_AT_EL3) -> BL32 (SP_min) -> BL33 (U-Boot) 71 72or if Op-TEE is used: 73 74ROM code -> BL2 (compiled with BL2_AT_EL3) -> OP-TEE -> BL33 (U-Boot) 75 76 77Build Instructions 78------------------ 79 80To build with SP_min: 81 82.. code:: bash 83 84 make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- PLAT=stm32mp1 ARCH=aarch32 ARM_ARCH_MAJOR=7 AARCH32_SP=sp_min DTB_FILE_NAME=stm32mp157c-ev1.dtb 85 cd <u-boot_directory> 86 make stm32mp15_trusted_defconfig 87 make DEVICE_TREE=stm32mp157c-ev1 all 88 89To build TF-A with with Op-TEE support: 90 91.. code:: bash 92 93 make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- PLAT=stm32mp1 ARCH=aarch32 ARM_ARCH_MAJOR=7 AARCH32_SP=optee 94 95The following build options are supported: 96 97- ``ENABLE_STACK_PROTECTOR``: To enable the stack protection. 98 99 100Populate SD-card 101---------------- 102 103The SD-card has to be formated with GPT. 104It should contain at least those partitions: 105 106- fsbl: to copy the tf-a-stm32mp157c-ev1.stm32 binary 107- ssbl: to copy the u-boot.stm32 binary 108 109Usually, two copies of fsbl are used (fsbl1 and fsbl2) instead of one partition fsbl. 110 111 112.. _STM32MP1 Series: https://www.st.com/en/microcontrollers-microprocessors/stm32mp1-series.html 113
