I am working on a NUCLEO-L476RG board, trying to start the bootloader from my firmware code but its not working for me. here is the code that i am trying to execute :
#include "stm32l4xx.h"
#include "stm32l4xx_nucleo.h"
#include "core_cm4.h"
#include "stm32l4xx_hal_uart.h"
GPIO_InitTypeDef GPIO_InitStructure;
UART_HandleTypeDef UartHandle;
UART_InitTypeDef UART_InitStructre;
void BootLoaderInit(uint32_t BootLoaderStatus){
void (*SysMemBootJump)(void) = (void (*)(void)) (*((uint32_t *) 0x1FFF0004));
if(BootLoaderStatus == 1) {
HAL_DeInit(); // shut down running tasks
// Reset the SysTick Timer
SysTick->CTRL = 0;
SysTick->LOAD = 0;
SysTick->VAL =0;
__set_PRIMASK(1); // Disable interrupts
__set_MSP((uint32_t*) 0x20001000);
SysMemBootJump();
}
}
int main(void)
{
HAL_Init();
__GPIOC_CLK_ENABLE();
GPIO_InitStructure.Pin = GPIO_PIN_13;
GPIO_InitStructure.Mode = GPIO_MODE_INPUT;
GPIO_InitStructure.Pull = GPIO_PULLUP;
GPIO_InitStructure.Speed = GPIO_SPEED_FAST;
HAL_GPIO_Init(GPIOC, &GPIO_InitStructure);
while (1) {
if (HAL_GPIO_ReadPin(GPIOC, GPIO_PIN_13)) {
BootLoaderInit(1);
}
}
return 0;
}
What i hope to get after the execution of the firmware is that i can connect to the board with a UART and send commands/get responses from the bootloader. the commands i am trying to use come from here: USART protocol used in the STM32 bootloader.
I don't see and response from the board after connecting with the UART.
Here are some ideas taken from the answers to this question.
HAL_RCC_DeInit();
This is apparently needed to put the clocks back into the state after reset, as the bootloader expects them to be.
__HAL_REMAPMEMORY_SYSTEMFLASH();
Maps the system bootloader to address 0x00000000
__ASM volatile ("movs r3, #0\nldr r3, [r3, #0]\nMSR msp, r3\n" : : : "r3", "sp");
Set the stack pointer from bootloader ROM. Where does your 0x20001000 come from? If it's an arbitrary value, then the stack can clobber the bootloader's variables.
Then there is this alternate solution:
When I want to jump to the bootloader, I write a byte in one of the
backup register and then issue a soft-reset. Then, when the processor
will restart, at the very beginning of the program, it will read this
register.
Note that you need LSI or LSE clock for accessing the backup registers.
Try to avoid using __set_MSP(), as current implementation of this function does NOT allow you to change MSP if it is also the stack pointer which you currently use (and you most likely are). The reason is that this function marks "sp" as clobbered register, so it will be saved before and restored afterwards.
See here - STM32L073RZ (rev Z) IAP jump to bootloader (system memory)
Find your bootloader start address from the reference manual.
Then use the following code.
Make sure you have cleaned and disabled the interrupts before do so.
/* Jump to different address */
JumpAddress = *(__IO uint32_t*) (BootloaderAddress + 4);
Jump_To_Application = (pFunction) JumpAddress;
/* Initialize user application's Stack Pointer */
__set_MSP(*(__IO uint32_t*) ApplicationAddress);
Jump_To_Application();
Please have a look at Official STM32 AppNote as well.

I have the nucleo board (nucleo-L4R5ZI) and want to write a code to be able to send data from a uC to a PC via the USB. I followed some tutorials, used STM32CubeMx, other solutions found across the Internet, but anyways I failed. I can open the vcp on the PC side (using Hterm, TeraTerm and Realterm), but cannot get any data.
I use Eclipse and the buildin debugger, which I flashed to JLink.
The main loop:
int main(void)
{
HAL_Init();
SystemClock_Config();
MX_GPIO_Init();
MX_USB_DEVICE_Init();
HAL_Delay(10000);
uint8_t HiMsg[] = "0123456789987654321001234567899876543210\r\n";
while (1)
{
if( CDC_Transmit_FS(HiMsg, 20) == USBD_OK )
{
HAL_GPIO_TogglePin(GPIOB, GPIO_PIN_7); // blue LED
}
HAL_GPIO_TogglePin(GPIOB, GPIO_PIN_14); // red LED
HAL_Delay(1000);
}
}
After executing this function, the blue LED lights only once and never changes its state (does not blink). It means that the CDC_Transmit_FS(...) returns USBD_OK only once, and next calls give USBD_Busy.
The MX_USB_DEVICE_Init() looks as follow:
void MX_USB_DEVICE_Init(void)
{
USBD_Init(&hUsbDeviceFS, &FS_Desc, DEVICE_FS);
USBD_RegisterClass(&hUsbDeviceFS, &USBD_CDC);
USBD_CDC_RegisterInterface(&hUsbDeviceFS, &USBD_Interface_fops_FS);
USBD_Start(&hUsbDeviceFS);
USBD_CDC_Init (&hUsbDeviceFS, &USBD_CDC); // I need to init it somewhere so I think here is a good place
}
The CDC_Transmit_FS looks like that:
uint8_t CDC_Transmit_FS(uint8_t* Buf, uint16_t Len)
{
uint8_t result = USBD_OK;
/* USER CODE BEGIN 7 */
CDC_Init_FS();
USBD_CDC_HandleTypeDef *hcdc = (USBD_CDC_HandleTypeDef*)hUsbDeviceFS.pClassData;
if (hcdc->TxState != 0){
return USBD_BUSY;
}
USBD_CDC_SetTxBuffer(&hUsbDeviceFS, Buf, Len);
result = USBD_CDC_TransmitPacket(&hUsbDeviceFS);
CDC_Init_FS();
/* USER CODE END 7 */
return result;
}
Does anyone know how to make it running? What do I miss?
Best,
This part look suspicious:
result = USBD_CDC_TransmitPacket(&hUsbDeviceFS);
CDC_Init_FS();
The call to CDC_Init_FS() probably kills the packet before it had a chance to be sent to the host.
SO... I found the solution!
I can confirm that the code above works (just remove the CDC_Init_FS)!
Acctully, it was a driver problem. for windows 10 you also need to install it despide what's written in the reference
I am using stm32f4 nucleuo board. I can transmit the audio data through usb to PC without FreeRTOS. Now I want to learn how to integrate the FreeRTOS and usb together. But I have some questions about how fundamentally threads and ISR interact with each other.
Below I have two files.
In main.c, there are two threads created.In usb_thread, I initialize usb dirver and do nothing else.
In vr_thread, it waits state == 1 and process PCM_Buffer.
/* main.c */
extern uint16_t PCM_Buffer[16];
int state = 0;
int main(void)
{
HAL_Init();
SystemClock_Config();
MX_GPIO_Init();
osThreadDef(usb_t, usb_thread, osPriorityNormal, 0, configMINIMAL_STACK_SIZE);
osThreadDef(vr_t, vr_thread, osPriorityNormal, 0, configMINIMAL_STACK_SIZE);
usb_thread_handle = osThreadCreate (osThread(usb_t), NULL);
usb_thread_handle = osThreadCreate (osThread(vr_t), NULL);
osKernelStart();
for (;;) {}
}
static void usb_thread(void const *argument)
{
/*Do some initialization here.*/
for (;;) {}
}
static void vr_thread(void const *argument)
{
/*Do some initialization here.*/
for (;;) {
if (state == 1) {
state = 0;
process_buffer(PCM_Buffer);
}
}
}
In app.c, USB_AUDIO_CallBack will be called by usb ISR every 1 millisecond. It transmit PCM_Buffer to PC first because it is really important, then it changes state to 1.
/* app.c */
uint16_t PCM_Buffer[16];
extern int state;
void USB_AUDIO_CallBack(void) //It will be called by usb ISR every 10^-3 second.
{
Send_Audio_to_USB((int16_t *)(PCM_Buffer), NUM_AUDIO_BUF);
state = 1;
}
Here are my questions.
1. How to find out the unit counting tick of FreeRTOS? USB_AUDIO_CallBack will be
called every 1 millisecond, how to know FreeRTOS basic tick is faster or slower
than 1 millisecond. Is FreeRTOS tick equal to systick?
2. Let's assume the process time of process_buffer is less than 1 millisecond. What I want to accomplish here is described below
hardware trigger
|
usb ISR
|
USB_AUDIO_CallBack
|
state=1
|
vr_thread process_buffer
|
state=0, then wait for hardware trigger again.
I really doubt it is the correct way to do it. Or should I use suspend() and resume()?
3. Is using extern to declare global PCM_Buffer the correct way to pass variable between threads or should I use queue in FreeRTOS?
I know these questions are trivial but I really want to understand them. Any helpful document or website is welcome. Thanks.
To convert real time to systick you can use macro pdMS_TO_TICKS(xTimeInMS).
You can define your USB_AUDIO_CallBack also as a thread (or task) or paste the code from the callback to vr_thread (as your application works on only one processor). Then inside the USB ISR you can send a notification using function vTaskNotifyGiveFromISR and receive it inside vr_thread by calling ulTaskNotifyTake. After receiving the notification you can call Send_Audio_to_USB((int16_t *)(PCM_Buffer), NUM_AUDIO_BUF);
and then process_buffer(PCM_Buffer);. It is better to bring out the code from callback to task, because the ISR handler will finish it's job faster as Send_Audio_to_USB function could run long time. You also keep things to be executed in the same order as you needed.
I think that you mean volatile instead of extern. If you want to use this buffer along different threads and ISRs you should define it as volatile, but if you will use the approach with only one task you can declare this buffer as local buffer.
I need help with the uart communication I am trying to implement on my Proteus simulation. I use a PIC18f4520 and I want to display on the virtual terminal the values that have been calculated by the microcontroller.
Here a snap of my design on Proteus
Right now, this is how my UART code looks like :
#define _XTAL_FREQ 20000000
#define _BAUDRATE 9600
void Configuration_ISR(void) {
IPR1bits.TMR1IP = 1; // TMR1 Overflow Interrupt Priority - High
PIE1bits.TMR1IE = 1; // TMR1 Overflow Interrupt Enable
PIR1bits.TMR1IF = 0; // TMR1 Overflow Interrupt Flag
// 0 = TMR1 register did not overflow
// 1 = TMR1 register overflowed (must be cleared in software)
RCONbits.IPEN = 1; // Interrupt Priority High level
INTCONbits.PEIE = 1; // Enables all low-priority peripheral interrupts
//INTCONbits.GIE = 1; // Enables all high-priority interrupts
}
void Configuration_UART(void) {
TRISCbits.TRISC6 = 0;
TRISCbits.TRISC7 = 1;
SPBRG = ((_XTAL_FREQ/16)/_BAUDRATE)-1;
//RCSTA REG
RCSTAbits.SPEN = 1; // enable serial port pins
RCSTAbits.RX9 = 0;
//TXSTA REG
TXSTAbits.BRGH = 1; // fast baudrate
TXSTAbits.SYNC = 0; // asynchronous
TXSTAbits.TX9 = 0; // 8-bit transmission
TXSTAbits.TXEN = 1; // enble transmitter
}
void WriteByte_UART(unsigned char ch) {
while(!PIR1bits.TXIF); // Wait for TXIF flag Set which indicates
// TXREG register is empty
TXREG = ch; // Transmitt data to UART
}
void WriteString_UART(char *data) {
while(*data){
WriteByte_UART(*data++);
}
}
unsigned char ReceiveByte_UART(void) {
if(RCSTAbits.OERR) {
RCSTAbits.CREN = 0;
RCSTAbits.CREN = 1;
}
while(!PIR1bits.RCIF); //Wait for a byte
return RCREG;
}
And in the main loop :
while(1) {
WriteByte_UART('a'); // This works. I can see the As in the terminal
WriteString_UART("Hello World !"); //Nothing displayed :(
}//end while(1)
I have tried different solution for WriteString_UART but none has worked so far.
I don't want to use printf cause it impacts other operations I'm doing with the PIC by adding delay.
So I really want to make it work with WriteString_UART.
In the end I would like to have someting like "Error rate is : [a value]%" on the terminal.
Thanks for your help, and please tell me if something isn't clear.
In your WriteByte_UART() function, try polling the TRMT bit. In particular, change:
while(!PIR1bits.TXIF);
to
while(!TXSTA1bits.TRMT);
I don't know if this is your particular issue, but there exists a race-condition due to the fact that TXIF is not immediately cleared upon loading TXREG. Another option would be to try:
...
Nop();
while(!PIR1bits.TXIF);
...
EDIT BASED ON COMMENTS
The issue is due to the fact that the PIC18 utilizes two different pointer types based on data memory and program memory. Try changing your declaration to void WriteString_UART(const rom char * data) and see what happens. You will need to change your WriteByte_UART() declaration as well, to void WriteByte_UART(const unsigned char ch).
Add delay of few miliseconds after line
TXREG = ch;
verify that pointer *data of WriteString_UART(char *data) actually point to
string "Hello World !".
It seems you found a solution, but the reason why it wasn't working in the first place is still not clear. What compiler are you using?
I learned the hard way that C18 and XC8 are used differently regarding memory spaces. With both compilers, a string declared literally like char string[]="Hello!", will be stored in ROM (program memory). They differ in the way functions use strings.
C18 string functions will have variants to access strings either in RAM or ROM (for example strcpypgm2ram, strcpyram2pgm, etc.). XC8 on the other hand, does the job for you and you will not need to use specific functions to choose which memory you want to access.
If you are using C18, I would highly recommend you switch to XC8, which is more recent and easier to work with. If you still want to use C18 or another compiler which requires you to deal with program/data memory spaces, then here below are two solutions you may want to try. The C18 datasheet says that putsUSART prints a string from data memory to USART. The function putrsUSART will print a string from program memory. So you can simply use putrsUSART to print your string.
You may also want to try the following, which consists in copying your string from program memory to data memory (it may be a waste of memory if your application is tight on memory though) :
char pgmstring[] = "Hello";
char datstring[16];
strcpypgm2ram(datstring, pgmstring);
putsUSART(datstring);
In this example, the pointers pgmstring and datstring will be stored in data memory. The string "Hello" will be stored in program memory. So even if the pointer pgmstring itself is in data memory, it initially points to a memory address (the address of "Hello"). The only way to point to this same string in data memory is to create a copy of it in data memory. This is because a function accepting a string stored in data memory (such as putsUSART) can NOT be used directly with a string stored in program memory.
I hope this could help you understand a bit better how to work with Harvard microprocessors, where program and data memories are separated.
I've bought an STM32F411 nucleo board and now I'm trying to understand various bits and pieces of the HAL. Starting with external interrupts seemed to be a good idea, because the board has a push button which is connected to PC13. So I've set up a simple toggle-the-frequency blinky. The code below is a bit simplified:
#define LED_PIN GPIO_PIN_5
#define BTN_PIN GPIO_PIN_13
static uint32_t blink_period = 250;
int main(void)
{
HAL_Init();
SystemClock_Config();
__GPIOA_CLK_ENABLE();
GPIO_InitTypeDef pinConfig;
pinConfig.Pin = (LED_PIN);
pinConfig.Pull = GPIO_NOPULL;
pinConfig.Mode = GPIO_MODE_OUTPUT_PP;
pinConfig.Speed = GPIO_SPEED_FAST;
HAL_GPIO_Init(GPIOA, &pinConfig);
__GPIOC_CLK_ENABLE();
pinConfig.Pin = (BTN_PIN);
pinConfig.Pull = GPIO_NOPULL;
pinConfig.Mode = GPIO_MODE_IT_FALLING;
pinConfig.Speed = GPIO_SPEED_LOW;
HAL_GPIO_Init(GPIOC, &pinConfig);
HAL_NVIC_SetPriority(EXTI15_10_IRQn, 0x0F, 0x00);
HAL_NVIC_EnableIRQ(EXTI15_10_IRQn);
while (1)
{
HAL_GPIO_TogglePin(GPIOA, LED_PIN);
HAL_Delay(blink_period);
}
}
void EXTI15_10_IRQHandler(void)
{
HAL_GPIO_EXTI_IRQHandler(BTN_PIN);
}
void HAL_GPIO_EXTI_Callback(uint16_t GPIO_Pin)
{
if(GPIO_Pin == BTN_PIN)
{
if (blink_period == 500)
{
blink_period = 250;
}
else
{
blink_period = 500;
}
}
}
When I push the button, an interrupt is generated and the blinky frequency changes from 1 to 2 Hz (or vice-versa). This works as intended, but why? I forgot to clear the pending interrupt flag, so the ISR should be called over and over. The datasheet clearly states that
When the selected edge occurs on the external interrupt line, an interrupt request is generated. The pending bit corresponding to the interrupt line is also set. This request is
reset by writing a ‘1’ in the pending register.
Reading a bit further reveals that this is a bit different for events:
When the selected edge occurs on the event line, an event pulse is generated. The pending bit corresponding to the event line is not set.
However, I'm not setting the button pin mode to any of the GPIO_MODE_EVT_... modes so I'm not using the event mechanism (to be honest I don't yet know what that even is - I just think that I'm not using it. Any hints are welcome).
So somewhere I should have to call void HAL_NVIC_ClearPendingIRQ (IRQn_Type IRQn), shouldn't I? It seems that clearing the flag by software is not necessary, because the ISR is not called more than once per falling edge. I've added a breakpoint in HAL_GPIO_EXTI_Callback to verify this.
Edit
As mentioned in the comments, the flag clearing code is in ST's implementation of the GPIO interrupt handler:
void HAL_GPIO_EXTI_IRQHandler(uint16_t GPIO_Pin)
{
/* EXTI line interrupt detected */
if(__HAL_GPIO_EXTI_GET_IT(GPIO_Pin) != RESET)
{
__HAL_GPIO_EXTI_CLEAR_IT(GPIO_Pin);
HAL_GPIO_EXTI_Callback(GPIO_Pin);
}
}
This handler needs to be called by the actual ISR (which is done in my code) and it clears the pending flag corresponding to the GPIO_Pin argument. So I have to write an ISR which sorts out which flags are set, and call HAL_GPIO_EXTI_IRQHandler for each, which in turn calls my HAL_GPIO_EXTI_Callback(uint16_t GPIO_Pin), again with the pin as an argument. For each external interrupt, the pin number would get checked some ~3 times (in the ISR, in the handler and in the callback)!
If that is the solution, I want my problem back.
You don't have to call HAL_NVIC_ClearPendingIRQ (IRQn_Type IRQn) because the pending bit in the NVIC will be cleared automatically upon entering HAL_GPIO_EXTI_IRQHandler.
The HAL_GPIO_EXTI_IRQHandler() implementation clears the pending bit in the peripheral, not in the NVIC. If it didn't clear the pending bit by calling __HAL_GPIO_EXTI_CLEAR_IT(GPIO_Pin), then the handler would be called again and again. The point is that you must distinguish between the interrupt pending bit in the peripheral and the pending bit in the NVIC.
I'm trying to set up an external interrupt on my LPC812 uC. I've made the following code
#include "LPC8xx.h"
#define RLED 7 // red LED
bool pause = false;
void PININT0_IRQHandler(void)
{
pause = !pause;
}
int main(void) {
LPC_GPIO_PORT->DIR0 |= 1<<RLED; // set pin as output
LPC_GPIO_PORT->SET0 = 1<<RLED;
NVIC_EnableIRQ(PININT0_IRQn);
while (1)
{
if(!pause)
{
LPC_GPIO_PORT->CLR0 = 1<<RLED;
}
}
}
But it isn't working. Am I missing something?
I'm not familiar with NXP MCUs.
But at least place break piont inside PININT0_IRQHandler, to understand clearly that interrupt is not generated.
Also it will be nice to clear interrupt flag inside handler.
Some peripherals need interrupt permission in peripheral registers in addition to NVIC setup.
Did you setup input pin somewhere?
Your code only initialize GPIO 7 pin as output.
