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 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

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)

apt-get install dfu-util

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

There are two ways to get the required U-Boot binaries. These can either be downloaded or built from the sources by yourself. Follow one of the two steps below.

Download prebuilt binaries

Build binaries from source

Clone U-Boot mainline source code for release v2022.04:

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

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)
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

Change default device tree (Example for: stm32mp15xx-dhcom-picoitx):

sed -iE 's/(stm32mp15xx-dhcom-pdk2|stm32mp157a-dhcor-avenger96)/stm32mp15xx-dhcom-picoitx/' .config

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.

Download of U-Boot SPL with dfu-util

(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:

sudo dmesg

Boot from SD card

  1. Hold the button for SD card boot mode on the SODIMM-200 module (DHCOM) below the eMMC chip.
  2. Reset the device. To reset the device, press the reset button on the baseboard or unplug and plug in the power plug.
  3. Release the button for SD card boot mode

U-Boot flashing via SD card

Write U-Boot SPL and U-Boot to the SD card

Follow the instructions in U-Boot booting via SD card to prepare an SD card with a file system on partition 4 that contains the required u-boot-spl.stm32 and u-boot.itb binaries.

Write U-Boot SPL and U-Boot to SPI-NOR-Flash

  1. Start U-Boot by U-Boot booting via DFU or by Boot from SD card
  2. Attach prepared SD card to the on module SD card slot
  3. Program U-Boot SPL and U-Boot by the script update_sf stored in the U-Boot environment.
