Created page with "To recover a corrupted U-Boot on a STM32MP1-based DHCOM, we can use the default fallback boot source DFU via serial link or USB or the SD card boot mode to temporarily boot U-..."

New page

To recover a corrupted U-Boot on a STM32MP1-based DHCOM, we can use the default fallback boot source DFU via serial link or USB or the SD card boot mode to temporarily boot U-Boot SPL and U-Boot.
From this U-Boot shell we can write both bootloader images from the SD card to the boot flash.

== Requirements ==
=== Software ===
* Linux host computer ([[Virtual Machine for Application Development]] is used in this guide)
* [https://source.denx.de/u-boot/u-boot/-/tree/v2022.04 U-Boot 2022.04] for your board (download and build instructions below)
* [https://packages.debian.org/stable/dfu-util dfu-util] (for DFU boot mode)

=== Hardware ===
* STM32MP1 based DHCOM
* DHCOM Premium Developer Kit Baseboard (or Baseboards with OTG ports)
* USB cable for OTG port (Mini USB for PDK2, USB-C for PDK3) (for DFU boot mode)
* SD card (for SD card boot mode)

== Preparation ==
This installation was made on the [[Virtual Machine for Application Development]].
All console expressions refer to this Debian system, but any other debian based system should also work.

=== Install dfu-util (debian) ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="shell">
apt-get install dfu-util
</syntaxhighlight>
<syntaxhighlight lang="console">
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Download/Build U-Boot SPL and U-Boot binaries ===

==== Build binaries from source ====

Clone U-Boot mainline source code for release v2022.04:
<syntaxhighlight lang="shell">
UBOOT_SRC=/work/dev/u-boot_v2022.04
mkdir -p $UBOOT_SRC
git clone --branch v2022.04 --depth 1 https://source.denx.de/u-boot/u-boot.git $UBOOT_SRC
cd $UBOOT_SRC
</syntaxhighlight>

Available U-Boot defconfigs for STM32MP1 based DHSOM devices with default device tree in bold:
* '''stm32mp15_dhcom_basic_defconfig''' ('''pdk2''', picoitx, drc02)
* '''stm32mp15_dhcor_basic_defconfig''' ('''avenger96''')
<syntaxhighlight lang="shell">
mkdir -p /work/dev/u-boot
git clone https://source.denx.de/u-boot/u-boot.git -b v2022.04 /work/dev/u-boot
cd /work/dev/u-boot
ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- make stm32mp15_dhcom_basic_defconfig
</syntaxhighlight>

Change default device tree (Example for: stm32mp15xx-dhcom-picoitx):
<syntaxhighlight lang="shell">
sed -iE 's/(stm32mp15xx-dhcom-pdk2|stm32mp157a-dhcor-avenger96)/stm32mp15xx-dhcom-picoitx/' .config
</syntaxhighlight>

Build linux binaries with all available cores:
<syntaxhighlight lang="shell">
ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- make -j$(nproc)
</syntaxhighlight>
<syntaxhighlight lang="console">
...
SHIPPED dts/dt.dtb

Check that the required binaries have been created and are of the appropriate size:
<syntaxhighlight lang="shell">
ls -l u-boot.itb u-boot-spl.stm32
</syntaxhighlight>
<syntaxhighlight lang="console">

</syntaxhighlight>

== U-Boot booting via DFU ==

To boot U-Boot SPL and U-Boot via DFU boot mode, you must first check if you have a DFU device connected, then load U-Boot SPL into the SRAM of your STM32MP1 and wait until the DRAM is initialized.
Then load U-Boot in the DRAM of your STM32MP1 and continue the boot process using the shown key combination.

=== Check for available DFU device ===

(Re-)Connect the USB cable with your host computer and the OTG port of your baseboard and check the kernel log for a available DFU device:
<syntaxhighlight lang="shell">
sudo dmesg
</syntaxhighlight>
<syntaxhighlight lang="console" highlight="4">
