Overview

This article to hold notes on early works with STMicro's STM32F100VL Discovery Board. We're using arm-none-eabi-gcc and assember versions:

^ STM32F microcontroller and dev board

This section of this LPCXpresso article is not very related to LPCXpresso but here to describe tools for compiling for, programming and debugging ST32F type processors and development boards. As of 2018-04-23 have on hand STMicro's development board model number STM32F1, also known as STM32FVLDISCOVERY. Overview page for this board at STMicro is:

The processor used in this dev board is an STM32F100 family part, described in the following PDF, and interestingly there appears to be no mention of 'fuse' or 'fuse bits' in this document:


References for reading and writing flash memory and other memory types on this board include the following pages:

- STEP - building Texane's stlink programming utility for ST32F and related target processors:

Looks like there are a couple of extra steps to take to build developer or dev team Texane's stlink project. These steps include installing `cmake`, and then on Debian and Ubuntu systems invoking stlink's makefile as follows:

$ make clean && make release


- STEP - Noting memory map of the ST32F100xB family microcontrollers


- STEP - JTAG versus SWD (Serial Wire Debug)


- ASIDE - RCC stands for . . .

RCC in ST32F micro context appears to stand for Reset and Clock Control. See https://www.slideshare.net/GauravVerma3/programming-the-arm-cortex

^ Demo Firmwares from AN3268 Standard Peripherals Library

- 2018-05-03 Thursday -

Ted working to compile, program part and run STMicro's RCC example firmware project, targeted to the STM32F100 Discovery Value Line board. Working on a Linux platform with GCC toolchain. Using professor Geoffry Brown's STM32 project template as for the project makefile or project recipe basis.

Today's goal is to build and run STM32 library example named 'RCC', locally installed in /opt/lib/an3268/stm32vldiscovery_package/Project/Examples/RCC. Having trouble with the linker not finding where built library files, likely archive or shared object files are located . . .

^ STM32F10x device types LD, MD, HD and Value Line

In the file /opt/lib/an3268/stm32vldiscovery_package/Libraries/CMSIS/CM3/DeviceSupport/ST/STM32F10x/stm32f10x.h there is a good explanation of the abbreviations LD, MD, HD attached to some STM32F10x microcontroller names:

  57 /*  Tip: To avoid modifying this file each time you need to switch between these
  58         devices, you can define the device in your toolchain compiler preprocessor.
  59 
  60  - Low density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx microcontrollers
  61    where the Flash memory density ranges between 16 and 32 Kbytes.
  62  - Low-density value line devices are STM32F100xx microcontrollers where the Flash
  63    memory density ranges between 16 and 32 Kbytes.
  64  - Medium density devices are STM32F101xx, STM32F102xx and STM32F103xx microcontrollers
  65    where the Flash memory density ranges between 64 and 128 Kbytes.
  66  - Medium-density value line devices are STM32F100xx microcontrollers where the

  68  - High density devices are STM32F101xx and STM32F103xx microcontrollers where
  69    the Flash memory density ranges between 256 and 512 Kbytes.
  70  - XL-density devices are STM32F101xx and STM32F103xx microcontrollers where

This same header file has some pound includes which may be worth noting, about four hundred lines into this file:

 412 #include "core_cm3.h"
 413 #include "system_stm32f10x.h"
 414 #include <stdint.h>

Even with the value line controller there are just over nine hundred register definitions in STM's standard peripherals library main header file for the STM32F100RB part:

   $ /opt/lib/an3268/stm32vldiscovery_package/Libraries/CMSIS/CM3/DeviceSupport/ST/STM32F10x$ grep -n 'Bit definition for' ./*.h | grep register | wc
    902    6320   91086


Looks like there are fourteen GPIO registers defined . . .

As we saw in compiler directive error messages a few days ago, a particular STM32F microcontroller part number needs be called out in order for conditional stuff in header files, including System Core Clock variable to be declared at compile time. Here are references to variable SystemCoreClock:

./CMSIS/CM3/DeviceSupport/ST/STM32F10x/system_stm32f10x.h:52:extern uint32_t SystemCoreClock;          /*!< System Clock Frequency (Core Clock) */

^ The dot S File

Somehow we need to include the 'dot s' file /opt/lib/an3268/stm32vldiscovery_package/Libraries/CMSIS/CM3/DeviceSupport/ST/STM32F10x/startup/arm/startup_stm32f10x_md_vl.s in our instance of STMicro's SysTick demo project. This file calls some processor-initializing code before routine int main() starts. This fact per comments in SysTick demo source file main.c . . .

int main(void)
{
  /*!< At this stage the microcontroller clock setting is already configured, 
       this is done through SystemInit() function which is called from startup
       file (startup_stm32f10x_xx.s) before to branch to application main.
       To reconfigure the default setting of SystemInit() function, refer to
       system_stm32f10x.c file
     */

Our challenge seems to be to direct gcc and related tools to bring together C sources and pre-existing assembly or 'dot s' files. Here is a reference which talks about coding syntax in C and assembly but is missing details of makefile syntax for GCC:

More a reference on crafting makefile to handle assembled files along with source files:

An article on bare metal programming of an ARM Cortex-M9 which gets closer to what we need, though assembly file is purely assembly here:

How to preprocess assembly files with C'ism:

Searching with phrase "arm-none-eabi-gcc assembly .s file":


Our invocations of arm-none-eabi-gcc and arm-none-eabi-as so far, where .s files seem to not work at all and .S files trigger some processing:

^ GNU assembler versus ARM assembler

Assembly files written in ARM assembler syntax won't assemble using GNU `as`, per Stack Overflow forum post 20301140:

Here is some work compiling an3268 SysTick demo source file main.c to the assembly stage, using GNU arm-none-eabi-gcc:

Systick main dot c to assembly Systick main dot c to assembly


Search for ARM assembler which is not GNU based, and available on Debian-like systems (also why QEMU needs code which ends which an infinite loop):



^ Startup and linker files in STCube1 libraries

About to examine following start-up assembly files for STM32F100xb type microcontrollers . . .

user@localhost:~/Downloads/stm/STM32Cube_FW_F1_V1.6.0$ find . -name 'startup_stm32f100*'

./Projects/STM32VL-Discovery/Templates/TrueSTUDIO/startup_stm32f100xb.s
./Projects/STM32VL-Discovery/Templates/EWARM/startup_stm32f100xb.s
./Projects/STM32VL-Discovery/Templates/MDK-ARM/startup_stm32f100xb.s
./Projects/STM32VL-Discovery/Templates_LL/EWARM/startup_stm32f100xb.s
./Projects/STM32VL-Discovery/Templates_LL/MDK-ARM/startup_stm32f100xb.s

Ah sure enough! Some of these start-up assembly files are written in GNU gcc syntax, just what we need! TrueSTUDIO instance of file startup_stm32f100xb.s is written and assembles properly via arm-none-eabi-as.

So we've been trying to build and run an AN3268 demo firmware, using a makefile template of two makefiles from Indiana State Geoffy Brown, which should be ok as `make` is a tool and not a mix of two different libraries. There is however also a matter of a linker script which sets out things like where object file code gets put into memory. We were referencing a GNU assember incompatible start-up file and changed that. May we also be referencing an incompatible linker script in our instance / copy of AN3268 SysTick demo firmwares? Here are the first linker scripts found, working up dir by dir from the location of the start-up file:

/opt/lib/an3268/stm32vldiscovery_package$ find . -name '*.ld'
./Project/Master Workspace/TrueSTUDIO/stm32_flash.ld
./Project/Demo/TrueSTUDIO/DISCOVER/STM32F100RB_FLASH.ld

^ Linker script syntax

Ok now that we can compile assembly files, those ending in .s which are written in GNU toolchain syntax we have a binary we've flashed to the dev board. But no action! Debugging is different and more constrained in a development board than in a PC with operating system environment. Could there be something wrong with our linker script? ^

Golden . . .

From Sourceware reference we learn that GNU linker `ld` can accept at least two linker files. We just wrote one and passed it to linker in an amendment in our local project makefile. Here is the linker script which defines a symbol that is in Geoffry's template linker script but not in STM AN3268 TrueSTUDIO template linker script. We named this linker file 'extra-linker-directives.ld' . . .

/* comment */

SECTIONS
{
     PROVIDE ( _exit = _ebss );
}

So we've modified out project to use a new linker script, and this second linker script which provides one additional variable assignment to `ld`. Still no visible working of SysTick AN3268 demo . . . tried some other things. Strangely calls to STMDiscovery.c routine ...LEDOff() seem to turn one or the other of LED3 (GPIOC_9) and LED4 (GPIOC_8) on rather than off. Now looking for beginner blink-LED programs for the STM32F100 Discovery board . . .

^ First Steps To GPIO 'Hello World'

The following article shows a couple things, a project which seems to omit any .s type start-up file. Also there's comment in the main.c file above a while(1) construct, that this infinite loop is important to keep the micro from running unintended code should some code be loaded beyond the end of the intended firmware:

In AN3268 SysTick demo in source file main.c it's not obvious where or whether GPIOC clock settings are taking place. Again there is mention in main.c of a call to SystemInit(), which doesn't appear as a function in the SysTick project directory, and doesn't appear to be a fully defined function in startup_stm32f10x_md_vl.s. In yesterday's May 10 tests to compile to the point of a .s file the source file main.c we had to include several other .h files which probably correspond at least some of them to .c files, one of which may hold the function SystemInit(). The files we needed to symbolically link to in that small work are:

^ USART work in STM32F10x context

Looking for USART project or demonstration firmware for the STM32F10x Discovery board . . .

~/Downloads/stm/STM32Cube_FW_F1_V1.6.0/Drivers/STM32F1xx_HAL_Driver/Src/stm32f1xx_hal.c:298:__weak void HAL_IncTick(void)

In the newer STCube peripherals library there is a group of UART demo firmwares, the most simple of which appears to be in directory:

~/Downloads/stm/STM32Cube_FW_F1_V1.6.0/Projects/STM32VL-Discovery/Examples/UART/UART_Printf

So we're running into a link time problem, where the GNU linker doesn't know where to find definitions of certain STM32F library functions. In the STM32Cube Drivers subdirectory, there's no makefile nor any instructions for building a shared object or similar type of library file. I seem to recall reading that the STM32F libraries are configured and used in a way different and non-standard with respect to libc6 and most C libraries. Here's the complaint from the linker when we try to build UART_Printf with a makefile we're building from the ground up:

~/projects/stm32f/UART_Printf$ make

- SCD30 demo mafile - including common makefile after all var' assignments and recipe declarations . . .
- Makefile.common - setting variable ELF to 'uart-printf.elf'
- Makefile.common - variable TEMPLATEROOT holds '..',
- Makefile.common - just set vpath to '',
- Makefile.common - trying to print vpath value by double dollar sign syntax . . . '',
- Makefile.common - declaring recipes to convert, compile, clean and debug demo project . . .
- Makefile.common - SKIPPING pulling in dependencies of .o files . . .

^ edit point - undefined references fixed by including STM32Cube library sources

So we see an undefined referernce to HAL_UART_Transmit and perform a search for this pattern at the top level of our unzipped STM32Cube library download. There are many references to the first function GNU ld cannot find, but just one definition in file stm32f1xx_hal_uart.c on line 645:

~/Downloads/stm/STM32Cube_FW_F1_V1.6.0$ grep -nr HAL_UART_Transmit ./*

Will it be enough then to include this source file among our list of sources, expressed in our makefile? Let's try . . . ok we're getting somewhere. Looks like we need to refactor some of the vpath %.c clauses in the common makefile taken as a template and starting point from Professor Geoffry Brown's work.

Looks like there's a timing issue. Project readme.txt file mentions the project as is being based on a 24MHz system clock, but our board has just 8Mhz crystal driving the microcontroller.
