| Programming and Debugging |
| ************************* |
| |
| .. zephyr:board-supported-runners:: |
| |
| Prerequisite |
| ============ |
| |
| Before you can run Zephyr on the STM32MP257F-EV1 Evaluation board, you need to |
| set up the Cortex |reg|-A35 core with a Linux |reg| environment. The Cortex |
| |reg|-M33 core runs Zephyr as a coprocessor, and it requires the Cortex |
| |reg|-A35 to load and start the firmware using remoteproc. |
| |
| One way to set up the Linux environment is to use the official ST |
| OpenSTLinux distribution, following the `Starter Package`_. (more information |
| about the procedure can be found in the `STM32MPU Wiki`_) |
| |
| Loading the firmware |
| ==================== |
| |
| Once the OpenSTLinux distribution is installed on the board, the Cortex |reg| |
| -A35 is responsible (in the current distribution) for loading the Zephyr |
| firmware image in DDR and/or SRAM and starting the Cortex |reg| -M33 core. The |
| application can be built using west, taking the :zephyr:code-sample:`blinky` as |
| an example. |
| |
| .. zephyr-app-commands:: |
| :zephyr-app: samples/basic/blinky |
| :board: stm32mp257f_ev1/stm32mp257fxx/m33 |
| :goals: build |
| |
| The firmware can be copied to the board file system and started with the Linux |
| remoteproc framework. (more information about the procedure can be found in the |
| `STM32MP257F boot Cortex-M33 firmware`_) |
| |
| Debugging |
| ========= |
| Applications can be debugged using OpenOCD and GDB. The OpenOCD files can be |
| found at `device-stm-openocd`_. |
| The firmware must first be started by the Cortex |reg|-A35. The debugger can |
| then be attached to the running Zephyr firmware using OpenOCD. |
| |
| - Build the sample: |
| |
| .. zephyr-app-commands:: |
| :zephyr-app: samples/basic/blinky |
| :board: stm32mp257f_ev1/stm32mp257fxx/m33 |
| :goals: build |
| |
| - Copy the firmware to the board, load it and start it with remoteproc |
| (`STM32MP257F boot Cortex-M33 firmware`_). The orange LED should be blinking. |
| - Attach to the target: |
| |
| .. code-block:: console |
| |
| $ west attach |
