6U-Boot on STMicroelectronics STM32MP1
7======================================
8
91. Summary
10==========
11This is a quick instruction for setup stm32mp1 boards.
12
132. Supported devices
14====================
15U-Boot supports one STMP32MP1 SoCs: STM32MP157
16
17The STM32MP157 is a Cortex-A MPU aimed at various applications.
18It features:
19- Dual core Cortex-A7 application core
20- 2D/3D image composition with GPU
21- Standard memories interface support
22- Standard connectivity, widely inherited from the STM32 MCU family
23- Comprehensive security support
24
25Everything is supported in Linux but U-Boot is limited to:
261. UART
272. SDCard/MMC controller (SDMMC)
283. NAND controller (FMC)
294. NOR controller (QSPI)
305. USB controller (OTG DWC2)
316. Ethernet controller
32
33And the necessary drivers
341. I2C
352. STPMIC1 (PMIC and regulator)
363. Clock, Reset, Sysreset
374. Fuse
38
39Currently the following boards are supported:
40+ stm32mp157c-ev1
41+ stm32mp157c-ed1
42+ stm32mp157a-dk1
43+ stm32mp157c-dk2
44+ stm32mp157a-avenger96
45
463. Boot Sequences
47=================
48
49BootRom => FSBL in SYSRAM => SSBL in DDR => OS (Linux Kernel)
50
51with FSBL = First Stage Bootloader
52 SSBL = Second Stage Bootloader
53
543 boot configurations are supported:
55
561) The "Trusted" boot chain (defconfig_file : stm32mp15_trusted_defconfig)
57 BootRom => FSBL = Trusted Firmware-A (TF-A) => SSBL = U-Boot
58 TF-A performs a full initialization of Secure peripherals and installs a
59 secure monitor.
60 U-Boot is running in normal world and uses TF-A monitor
61 to access to secure resources.
62
632) The "Trusted" boot chain with OP-TEE
64 (defconfig_file : stm32mp15_optee_defconfig)
65 BootRom => FSBL = Trusted Firmware-A (TF-A) => SSBL = U-Boot
66 TF-A performs a full initialization of Secure peripherals and installs OP-TEE
67 from specific partitions (teeh, teed, teex).
68 U-Boot is running in normal world and uses OP-TEE monitor to access
69 to secure resources.
70
713) The "Basic" boot chain (defconfig_file : stm32mp15_basic_defconfig)
72 BootRom => FSBL = U-Boot SPL => SSBL = U-Boot
73 SPL has limited security initialisation
74 U-Boot is running in secure mode and provide a secure monitor to the kernel
75 with only PSCI support (Power State Coordination Interface defined by ARM).
76
77All the STM32MP1 boards supported by U-Boot use the same generic board
78stm32mp1 which support all the bootable devices.
79
80Each board is configurated only with the associated device tree.
81
824. Device Tree Selection
83========================
84
85You need to select the appropriate device tree for your board,
86the supported device trees for stm32mp157 are:
87
88+ ev1: eval board with pmic stpmic1 (ev1 = mother board + daughter ed1)
89 dts: stm32mp157c-ev1
90
91+ ed1: daughter board with pmic stpmic1
92 dts: stm32mp157c-ed1
93
94+ dk1: Discovery board
95 dts: stm32mp157a-dk1
96
97+ dk2: Discovery board = dk1 with a BT/WiFI combo and a DSI panel
98 dts: stm32mp157c-dk2
99
100+ avenger96: Avenger96 board from Arrow Electronics
101 dts: stm32mp157a-avenger96
102
1035. Build Procedure
104==================
105
1061. Install required tools for U-Boot
107
108 + install package needed in U-Boot makefile
109 (libssl-dev, swig, libpython-dev...)
110 + install ARMv7 toolchain for 32bit Cortex-A (from Linaro,
111 from SDK for STM32MP1, or any crosstoolchains from your distribution)
112
1132. Set the cross compiler:
114
115 # export CROSS_COMPILE=/path/to/toolchain/arm-linux-gnueabi-
116 (you can use any gcc cross compiler compatible with U-Boot)
117
1183. Select the output directory (optional)
119
120 # export KBUILD_OUTPUT=/path/to/output
121
122 for example: use one output directory for each configuration
123 # export KBUILD_OUTPUT=stm32mp15_trusted
124 # export KBUILD_OUTPUT=stm32mp15_optee
125 # export KBUILD_OUTPUT=stm32mp15_basic
126
127 you can build outside of code directory:
128 # export KBUILD_OUTPUT=../build/stm32mp15_trusted
129
1304. Configure U-Boot:
131
132 # make <defconfig_file>
133
134 - For trusted boot mode : "stm32mp15_trusted_defconfig"
135 - For trusted with OP-TEE boot mode : "stm32mp15_optee_defconfig"
136 - For basic boot mode: "stm32mp15_basic_defconfig"
137
1385. Configure the device-tree and build the U-Boot image:
139
140 # make DEVICE_TREE=<name> all
141
142 example:
143 a) trusted boot on ev1
144 # export KBUILD_OUTPUT=stm32mp15_trusted
145 # make stm32mp15_trusted_defconfig
146 # make DEVICE_TREE=stm32mp157c-ev1 all
147
148 b) trusted with OP-TEE boot on dk2
149 # export KBUILD_OUTPUT=stm32mp15_optee
150 # make stm32mp15_optee_defconfig
151 # make DEVICE_TREE=stm32mp157c-dk2 all
152
153 c) basic boot on ev1
154 # export KBUILD_OUTPUT=stm32mp15_basic
155 # make stm32mp15_basic_defconfig
156 # make DEVICE_TREE=stm32mp157c-ev1 all
157
158 d) basic boot on ed1
159 # export KBUILD_OUTPUT=stm32mp15_basic
160 # make stm32mp15_basic_defconfig
161 # make DEVICE_TREE=stm32mp157c-ed1 all
162
163 e) basic boot on dk1
164 # export KBUILD_OUTPUT=stm32mp15_basic
165 # make stm32mp15_basic_defconfig
166 # make DEVICE_TREE=stm32mp157a-dk1 all
167
168 f) basic boot on avenger96
169 # export KBUILD_OUTPUT=stm32mp15_basic
170 # make stm32mp15_basic_defconfig
171 # make DEVICE_TREE=stm32mp157a-avenger96 all
172
1736. Output files
174
175 BootRom and TF-A expect binaries with STM32 image header
176 SPL expects file with U-Boot uImage header
177
178 So in the output directory (selected by KBUILD_OUTPUT),
179 you can found the needed files:
180
181 a) For Trusted boot (with or without OP-TEE)
182 + FSBL = tf-a.stm32 (provided by TF-A compilation)
183 + SSBL = u-boot.stm32
184
185 b) For Basic boot
186 + FSBL = spl/u-boot-spl.stm32
187 + SSBL = u-boot.img
188
1896. Switch Setting for Boot Mode
190===============================
191
192You can select the boot mode, on the board with one switch :
193
194- on the daugther board ed1 with the switch SW1 : BOOT0, BOOT1, BOOT2
195
196 -----------------------------------
197 Boot Mode BOOT2 BOOT1 BOOT0
198 -----------------------------------
199 Reserved 0 0 0
200 NOR 0 0 1
201 SD-Card 1 0 1
202 eMMC 0 1 0
203 NAND 0 1 1
204 Recovery 1 1 0
205 Recovery 0 0 0
206
207- on board DK1/DK2 with the switch SW1 : BOOT0, BOOT2
208 (BOOT1 forced to 0, NOR not supported)
209
210 --------------------------
211 Boot Mode BOOT2 BOOT0
212 --------------------------
213 Reserved 1 0
214 SD-Card 1 1
215 Recovery 0 0
216
217- Boot mode of Avenger96 can be selected using switch S3
218
219 -----------------------------------
220 Boot Mode BOOT2 BOOT1 BOOT0
221 -----------------------------------
222 Recovery 0 0 0
223 NOR 0 0 1
224 SD-Card 1 0 1
225 eMMC 0 1 0
226 NAND 0 1 1
227 Reserved 1 0 0
228 Recovery 1 1 0
229 SD-Card 1 1 1
230
231Recovery is a boot from serial link (UART/USB) and it is used with
232STM32CubeProgrammer tool to load executable in RAM and to update the flash
233devices available on the board (NOR/NAND/eMMC/SDCARD).
234The communication between HOST and board is based on
235- for UARTs : the uart protocol used with all MCU STM32
236- for USB : based on USB DFU 1.1 (without the ST extensions used on MCU STM32)
237
2387. Prepare an SDCard
239===================
240
241The minimal requirements for STMP32MP1 boot up to U-Boot are:
242- GPT partitioning (with gdisk or with sgdisk)
243- 2 fsbl partitions, named fsbl1 and fsbl2, size at least 256KiB
244- one ssbl partition for U-Boot
245
246Then the minimal GPT partition is:
247 ----- ------- --------- --------------
248 | Num | Name | Size | Content |
249 ----- ------- -------- ---------------
250 | 1 | fsbl1 | 256 KiB | TF-A or SPL |
251 | 2 | fsbl2 | 256 KiB | TF-A or SPL |
252 | 3 | ssbl | enought | U-Boot |
253 | * | - | - | Boot/Rootfs |
254 ----- ------- --------- --------------
255
256(*) add bootable partition for extlinux.conf
257 following Generic Distribution
258 (doc/README.distro for use)
259
260 according the used card reader select the block device
261 (/dev/sdx or /dev/mmcblk0)
262 in the next example I use /dev/mmcblk0
263
264for example: with gpt table with 128 entries
265
266 a) remove previous formatting
267 # sgdisk -o /dev/<SDCard dev>
268
269 b) create minimal image
270 # sgdisk --resize-table=128 -a 1 \
271 -n 1:34:545 -c 1:fsbl1 \
272 -n 2:546:1057 -c 2:fsbl2 \
273 -n 3:1058:5153 -c 3:ssbl \
274 -p /dev/<SDCard dev>
275
276 you can add other partitions for kernel
277 one partition rootfs for example:
278 -n 4:5154: -c 4:rootfs \
279
280 c) copy the FSBL (2 times) and SSBL file on the correct partition.
281 in this example in partition 1 to 3
282
283 for basic boot mode : <SDCard dev> = /dev/mmcblk0
284 # dd if=u-boot-spl.stm32 of=/dev/mmcblk0p1
285 # dd if=u-boot-spl.stm32 of=/dev/mmcblk0p2
286 # dd if=u-boot.img of=/dev/mmcblk0p3
287
288 for trusted boot mode :
289 # dd if=tf-a.stm32 of=/dev/mmcblk0p1
290 # dd if=tf-a.stm32 of=/dev/mmcblk0p2
291 # dd if=u-boot.stm32 of=/dev/mmcblk0p3
292
293To boot from SDCard, select BootPinMode = 1 0 1 and reset.
294
2958. Prepare eMMC
296===============
297You can use U-Boot to copy binary in eMMC.
298
299In the next example, you need to boot from SDCARD and the images (u-boot-spl.stm32, u-boot.img)
300are presents on SDCARD (mmc 0) in ext4 partition 4 (bootfs).
301
302To boot from SDCard, select BootPinMode = 1 0 1 and reset.
303
304Then you update the eMMC with the next U-Boot command :
305
306a) prepare GPT on eMMC,
307 example with 2 partitions, bootfs and roots:
308
309 # setenv emmc_part "name=ssbl,size=2MiB;name=bootfs,type=linux,bootable,size=64MiB;name=rootfs,type=linux,size=512"
310 # gpt write mmc 1 ${emmc_part}
311
312b) copy SPL on eMMC on firts boot partition
313 (SPL max size is 256kB, with LBA 512, 0x200)
314
315 # ext4load mmc 0:4 0xC0000000 u-boot-spl.stm32
316 # mmc dev 1
317 # mmc partconf 1 1 1 1
318 # mmc write ${fileaddr} 0 200
319 # mmc partconf 1 1 1 0
320
321c) copy U-Boot in first GPT partition of eMMC
322
323 # ext4load mmc 0:4 0xC0000000 u-boot.img
324 # mmc dev 1
325 # part start mmc 1 1 partstart
326 # part size mmc 1 1 partsize
327 # mmc write ${fileaddr} ${partstart} ${partsize}
328
329To boot from eMMC, select BootPinMode = 0 1 0 and reset.
330
3319. MAC Address
332==============
333
334Please read doc/README.enetaddr for the implementation guidelines for mac id
335usage. Basically, environment has precedence over board specific storage.
336
337Mac id storage and retrieval in stm32mp otp :
338- OTP_57[31:0] = MAC_ADDR[31:0]
339- OTP_58[15:0] = MAC_ADDR[47:32]
340
341To program a MAC address on virgin OTP words above, you can use the fuse command
342on bank 0 to access to internal OTP:
343
344 example to set mac address "12:34:56:78:9a:bc"
345
346 1- Write OTP
347 STM32MP> fuse prog -y 0 57 0x78563412 0x0000bc9a
348
349 2- Read OTP
350 STM32MP> fuse sense 0 57 2
351 Sensing bank 0:
352 Word 0x00000039: 78563412 0000bc9a
353
354 3- next REBOOT :
355 ### Setting environment from OTP MAC address = "12:34:56:78:9a:bc"
356
357 4 check env update
358 STM32MP> print ethaddr
359 ethaddr=12:34:56:78:9a:bc
360
36110. Coprocessor firmware
362========================
363
364U-Boot can boot the coprocessor before the kernel (coprocessor early boot).
365
366A/ Manuallly by using rproc commands (update the bootcmd)
367 Configurations
368 # env set name_copro "rproc-m4-fw.elf"
369 # env set dev_copro 0
370 # env set loadaddr_copro 0xC1000000
371
372 Load binary from bootfs partition (number 4) on SDCard (mmc 0)
373 # ext4load mmc 0:4 ${loadaddr_copro} ${name_copro}
374 => ${filesize} updated with the size of the loaded file
375
376 Start M4 firmware with remote proc command
377 # rproc init
378 # rproc load ${dev_copro} ${loadaddr_copro} ${filesize}
379 # rproc start ${dev_copro}
380
381B/ Automatically by using FIT feature and generic DISTRO bootcmd
382
383 see examples in this directory :
384
385 Generate FIT including kernel + device tree + M4 firmware
386 with cfg with M4 boot
387 $> mkimage -f fit_copro_kernel_dtb.its fit_copro_kernel_dtb.itb
388
389 Then using DISTRO configuration file: see extlinux.conf to select
390 the correct configuration
391 => stm32mp157c-ev1-m4
392 => stm32mp157c-dk2-m4
393
39411. DFU support
395===============
396
397The DFU is supported on ST board.
398The env variable dfu_alt_info is automatically build, and all
399the memory present on the ST boards are exported.
400
401The mode is started by
402
403STM32MP> dfu 0
404
