  • STMicroelectronics STM32MP1
    ===========================
    
    
    STM32MP1 is a microprocessor designed by STMicroelectronics
    based on a dual Arm Cortex-A7.
    It is an Armv7-A platform, using dedicated code from TF-A.
    
    The STM32MP1 chip also embeds a Cortex-M4.
    More information can be found on `STM32MP1 Series`_ page.
    
    STM32MP1 Versions
    -----------------
    The STM32MP1 series is available in 3 different lines which are pin-to-pin compatible:
    
    - STM32MP157: Dual Cortex-A7 cores, Cortex-M4 core @ 209 MHz, 3D GPU, DSI display interface and CAN FD
    - STM32MP153: Dual Cortex-A7 cores, Cortex-M4 core @ 209 MHz and CAN FD
    - STM32MP151: Single Cortex-A7 core, Cortex-M4 core @ 209 MHz
    
    Each line comes with a security option (cryptography & secure boot) and a Cortex-A frequency option:
    
    - A      Basic + Cortex-A7 @ 650 MHz
    - C      Secure Boot + HW Crypto + Cortex-A7 @ 650 MHz
    - D      Basic + Cortex-A7 @ 800 MHz
    - F      Secure Boot + HW Crypto + Cortex-A7 @ 800 MHz
    
    The `STM32MP1 part number codification`_ page gives more information about part numbers.
    
    
    Design
    ------
    The STM32MP1 resets in the ROM code of the Cortex-A7.
    The primary boot core (core 0) executes the boot sequence while
    secondary boot core (core 1) is kept in a holding pen loop.
    The ROM code boot sequence loads the TF-A binary image from boot device
    to embedded SRAM.
    
    The TF-A image must be properly formatted with a STM32 header structure
    for ROM code is able to load this image.
    Tool stm32image can be used to prepend this header to the generated TF-A binary.
    
    
    Boot with FIP
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    The use of FIP is now the recommended way to boot STM32MP1 platform.
    Only BL2 (with STM32 header) is loaded by ROM code. The other binaries are
    inside the FIP binary: BL32 (SP_min or OP-TEE), U-Boot and their respective
    device tree blobs.
    
    STM32IMAGE bootchain (deprecated)
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    
    At compilation step, BL2, BL32 and DTB file are linked together in a single
    binary. The stm32image tool is also generated and the header is added to TF-A
    binary. This binary file with header is named tf-a-stm32mp157c-ev1.stm32.
    It can then be copied in the first partition of the boot device.

    Boot sequence
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    
    ROM code -> BL2 (compiled with BL2_AT_EL3) -> BL32 (SP_min) -> BL33 (U-Boot)
    
    
    or if Op-TEE is used:
    
    ROM code -> BL2 (compiled with BL2_AT_EL3) -> OP-TEE -> BL33 (U-Boot)
    
    
    
    Build Instructions
    ------------------
    
    Boot media(s) supported by BL2 must be specified in the build command.
    Available storage medias are:
    
    - ``STM32MP_SDMMC``
    - ``STM32MP_EMMC``
    - ``STM32MP_RAW_NAND``
    - ``STM32MP_SPI_NAND``
    - ``STM32MP_SPI_NOR``
    
    Boot with FIP
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    You need to build BL2, BL32 (SP_min or OP-TEE) and BL33 (U-Boot) before building FIP binary.
    
    U-Boot
    ______
    
    .. code:: bash
    
        cd <u-boot_directory>
        make stm32mp15_trusted_defconfig
        make DEVICE_TREE=stm32mp157c-ev1 all
    
    OP-TEE (optional)
    _________________
    
    .. code:: bash
    
        cd <optee_directory>
        make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- ARCH=arm PLATFORM=stm32mp1 \
            CFG_EMBED_DTB_SOURCE_FILE=stm32mp157c-ev1.dts
    
    
    TF-A BL32 (SP_min)
    __________________
    If you choose not to use OP-TEE, you can use TF-A SP_min.
    To build TF-A BL32, and its device tree file:
    
    .. code:: bash
    
        make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-eabi- PLAT=stm32mp1 ARCH=aarch32 ARM_ARCH_MAJOR=7 \
            AARCH32_SP=sp_min DTB_FILE_NAME=stm32mp157c-ev1.dtb bl32 dtbs
    
    TF-A BL2
    ________
    To build TF-A BL2 with its STM32 header for SD-card boot:
    
    .. code:: bash
    
        make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-eabi- PLAT=stm32mp1 ARCH=aarch32 ARM_ARCH_MAJOR=7 \
    
            DTB_FILE_NAME=stm32mp157c-ev1.dtb STM32MP_SDMMC=1
    
    For other boot devices, you have to replace STM32MP_SDMMC in the previous command
    with the desired devive flag.
    
    
    This BL2 is independent of the BL32 used (SP_min or OP-TEE)
    
    
    FIP
    ___
    With BL32 SP_min:
    
    .. code:: bash
    
        make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-eabi- PLAT=stm32mp1 ARCH=aarch32 ARM_ARCH_MAJOR=7 \
            AARCH32_SP=sp_min \
            DTB_FILE_NAME=stm32mp157c-ev1.dtb \
            BL33=<u-boot_directory>/u-boot-nodtb.bin \
            BL33_CFG=<u-boot_directory>/u-boot.dtb \
            fip
    
    With OP-TEE:
    
    .. code:: bash
    
        make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-eabi- PLAT=stm32mp1 ARCH=aarch32 ARM_ARCH_MAJOR=7 \

    STM32IMAGE bootchain (deprecated)
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    You need to add the following flag to the make command:
    ``STM32MP_USE_STM32IMAGE=1``
    
    To build with SP_min and support for SD-card boot:
    
        make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- PLAT=stm32mp1 ARCH=aarch32 ARM_ARCH_MAJOR=7 \
            AARCH32_SP=sp_min STM32MP_SDMMC=1 DTB_FILE_NAME=stm32mp157c-ev1.dtb \
            STM32MP_USE_STM32IMAGE=1
    
    
        make stm32mp15_trusted_defconfig
    
        make DEVICE_TREE=stm32mp157c-ev1 all
    
    To build TF-A with OP-TEE support for SD-card boot:
    
    .. code:: bash
    
    
        make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- PLAT=stm32mp1 ARCH=aarch32 ARM_ARCH_MAJOR=7 \
            AARCH32_SP=optee STM32MP_SDMMC=1 DTB_FILE_NAME=stm32mp157c-ev1.dtb \
            STM32MP_USE_STM32IMAGE=1
    
    
        cd <optee_directory>
    
        make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- ARCH=arm PLATFORM=stm32mp1 \
            CFG_EMBED_DTB_SOURCE_FILE=stm32mp157c-ev1.dts
    
    
        cd <u-boot_directory>
    
        make stm32mp15_trusted_defconfig
    
        make DEVICE_TREE=stm32mp157c-ev1 all
    
    
    Populate SD-card
    ----------------
    
    
    Boot with FIP
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    The SD-card has to be formated with GPT.
    It should contain at least those partitions:
    
    - fsbl: to copy the tf-a-stm32mp157c-ev1.stm32 binary (BL2)
    - fip: which contains the FIP binary
    
    Usually, two copies of fsbl are used (fsbl1 and fsbl2) instead of one partition fsbl.
    
    STM32IMAGE bootchain (deprecated)
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    
    The SD-card has to be formated with GPT.
    It should contain at least those partitions:
    
    - fsbl: to copy the tf-a-stm32mp157c-ev1.stm32 binary
    - ssbl: to copy the u-boot.stm32 binary
    
    Usually, two copies of fsbl are used (fsbl1 and fsbl2) instead of one partition fsbl.
    
    OP-TEE artifacts go into separate partitions as follows:
    
    - teeh: tee-header_v2.stm32
    - teed: tee-pageable_v2.stm32
    - teex: tee-pager_v2.stm32
