| Overview |
| ******** |
| The BL5340 Development Kit provides support for the Laird Connectivity |
| BL5340 module which is powered by a dual-core Nordic Semiconductor |
| nRF5340 ARM Cortex-M33F CPU. The nRF5340 inside the BL5340 module is a |
| dual-core SoC based on the Arm® Cortex®-M33 architecture, with: |
| |
| * a full-featured Arm Cortex-M33F core with DSP instructions, FPU, and |
| Armv8-M Security Extension, running at up to 128 MHz, referred to as |
| the **application core** |
| * a secondary Arm Cortex-M33 core, with a reduced feature set, running |
| at a fixed 64 MHz, referred to as the **network core**. |
| |
| The bl5340_dvk_cpuapp build target provides support for the application |
| core on the BL5340 module. The bl5340_dvk_cpunet build target provides |
| support for the network core on the BL5340 module. If ARM TrustZone is |
| used then the bl5340_dvk_cpuapp build target provides support for the |
| non-secure partition of the application core on the BL5340 module. |

| the memory space (Flash, SRAM, and peripheral address space) is |
| defined to be secure accessible only. |
| - Secure boot. |
| |
| Programming and Debugging |
| ************************* |
| |
| The BL5340's application core supports the Armv8-M Security Extension. |
| Applications built for the bl5340_dvk_cpuapp board by default |
| boot in the Secure state. |
| |
| The BL5340's network core does not support the Armv8-M Security |
| Extension. The IDAU may configure bus accesses by the network core to |
| have Secure attribute set; the latter allows to build and run Secure |
| only applications on the BL5340 module. |
| |
| Building Secure/Non-Secure Zephyr applications with Arm |reg| TrustZone |reg| |
| ============================================================================= |
| |
| Applications on the BL5340 module may contain a Secure and a Non-Secure |
| firmware image for the application core. The Secure image can be built |
| using either Zephyr or `Trusted Firmware M`_ (TF-M). Non-Secure |
| firmware images are always built using Zephyr. The two alternatives are |
| described below. |
| |
| .. note:: |
| |
| By default the the Secure image for BL5340's application core is |
| built using TF-M. |
| |
| Building the Secure firmware with TF-M |
| -------------------------------------- |
| |
| The process to build the Secure firmware image using TF-M and the |
| Non-Secure firmware image using Zephyr requires the following steps: |
| |
| 1. Build the Non-Secure Zephyr application |
| for the application core using ``-DBOARD=bl5340_dvk_cpuapp_ns``. |
| To invoke the building of TF-M the Zephyr build system requires the |
| Kconfig option ``BUILD_WITH_TFM`` to be enabled, which is done by |
| default when building Zephyr as a Non-Secure application. |
| The Zephyr build system will perform the following steps automatically: |
| |
| * Build the Non-Secure firmware image as a regular Zephyr application |
| * Build a TF-M (secure) firmware image |
| * Merge the output image binaries together |
| * Optionally build a bootloader image (MCUboot) |
| |
| .. note:: |
| |
| Depending on the TF-M configuration, an application DTS overlay may |
| be required, to adjust the Non-Secure image Flash and SRAM starting |
| address and sizes. |
| |
| 2. Build the application firmware for the network core using |
| ``-DBOARD=bl5340_dvk_cpunet``. |
| |
| Building the Secure firmware using Zephyr |
| ----------------------------------------- |
| |
| The process to build the Secure and the Non-Secure firmware images |
| using Zephyr requires the following steps: |
| |
| 1. Build the Secure Zephyr application for the application core |
| using ``-DBOARD=bl5340_dvk_cpuapp`` and |
| ``CONFIG_TRUSTED_EXECUTION_SECURE=y`` and ``CONFIG_BUILD_WITH_TFM=n`` |
| in the application project configuration file. |
| 2. Build the Non-Secure Zephyr application for the application core |
| using ``-DBOARD=bl5340_dvk_cpuapp_ns``. |
| 3. Merge the two binaries together. |
| 4. Build the application firmware for the network core using |
| ``-DBOARD=bl5340_dvk_cpunet``. |
| |
| When building a Secure/Non-Secure application for the BL5340's |
| application core, the Secure application will have to set the IDAU |
| (SPU) configuration to allow Non-Secure access to all CPU resources |
| utilized by the Non-Secure application firmware. SPU configuration |
| shall take place before jumping to the Non-Secure application. |
| |
| Building a Secure only application |
| ================================== |
| |
| Build the Zephyr app in the usual way (see :ref:`build_an_application` |
| and :ref:`application_run`), using ``-DBOARD=bl5340_dvk_cpuapp`` for |
| the firmware running on the BL5340's application core, and using |
| ``-DBOARD=bl5340_dvk_cpunet`` for the firmware running |
| on the BL5340's network core. |
| |
| Flashing |
| ======== |
| |
| Follow the instructions in the :ref:`nordic_segger` page to install |
| and configure all the necessary software. Further information can be |
| found in :ref:`nordic_segger_flashing`. Then you can build and flash |
| applications as usual (:ref:`build_an_application` and |
| :ref:`application_run` for more details). |
| |
| .. warning:: |
| |
| The BL5340 has a flash read-back protection feature. When flash |
| read-back protection is active, you will need to recover the chip |
| before reflashing. If you are flashing with |
| :ref:`west <west-build-flash-debug>`, run this command for more |
| details on the related ``--recover`` option: |
| |
| .. code-block:: console |
| |
| west flash -H -r nrfjprog --skip-rebuild |
| |
| .. note:: |
| |
| Flashing and debugging applications on the BL5340 DVK requires |
| upgrading the nRF Command Line Tools to version 10.12.0 or newer. |
| Further information on how to install the nRF Command Line Tools can |
| be found in :ref:`nordic_segger_flashing`. |
| |
| Here is an example for the :ref:`hello_world` application running on the |
| BL5340's application core. |
| |
| First, run your favorite terminal program to listen for output. |
| |
| .. code-block:: console |
| |
| $ minicom -D <tty_device> -b 115200 |
| |
| Replace :code:`<tty_device>` with the port where the BL5340 DVK board |
| can be found. For example, under Linux, :code:`/dev/ttyACM0`. |
| |
| Then build and flash the application in the usual way. |
| |
| .. zephyr-app-commands:: |
| :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world |
| :board: bl5340_dvk_cpuapp |
| :goals: build flash |
| |
| Debugging |

| Refer to the :ref:`nordic_segger` page to learn about debugging |
| boards with a Segger IC. |
