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

Dropbox: u-boot_stm32mp1-testbench_2022.07_g5d247d61.zip (source)

Build binaries from source

Checkout source code

git clone -b v2022.07_testbench https://github.com/dh-electronics/u-boot-stm32mp1.git
cd u-boot-stm32mp1

Download and extract toolchain Toolchain from: https://developer.arm.com/downloads/-/gnu-a

wget https://armkeil.blob.core.windows.net/developer/Files/downloads/gnu-a/10.3-2021.07/binrel/gcc-arm-10.3-2021.07-x86_64-arm-none-linux-gnueabihf.tar.xz
tar xf gcc-arm-10.3-2021.07-x86_64-arm-none-linux-gnueabihf.tar.xz -C /opt/toolchains

Create config, set testbench as default and build

make stm32mp15_dhcor_basic_defconfig
sed -i 's/stm32mp15xx-dhcor-avenger96/stm32mp15xx-dhcor-testbench/g' .config
make -j16

Simple U-Boot update via USB flash drive

Attention: Do not switch off the voltage during the update

• Copy binaries to USB drive.
• Startup U-Boot, connect to console and plugin USB drive with binary files.
• Set update_sf command:

env set update_sf 'usb start && setexpr loadaddr1 ${loadaddr} + 0x1000000 && load usb 0 ${loadaddr1} u-boot-spl_stm32mp1-testbench_2022.07_g5d247d61.stm32 && env set filesize1 ${filesize} && load usb 0 ${loadaddr} u-boot_stm32mp1-testbench_2022.07_g5d247d61.itb && sf probe && sf erase 0 0x200000 && sf update ${loadaddr1} 0 ${filesize1} && sf update ${loadaddr1} 0x40000 ${filesize1} && sf update ${loadaddr} 0x80000 ${filesize} && env set filesize1 && env set loadaddr1'

• Start bootloader update

run update_sf
