error compiling STM32 bootloader

ilmenator · February 9, 2011, 2:53pm

I’ve been trying to compile the bootloader for STM32 core, as I have a “virgin” chip and want to program it via ROM based UART Bootloader as described here. I have done this before, but for some reason the compile action fails. “Normal” code compilation works, but with the bootloader I get the following error message:

================ READY ================

I have not changed anything in the code itself, it is what is in the repository under \mios32\trunk\bootloader\src

Thanks for looking, ilmenator

Looking into the neighboring folder, \mios32\trunk\bootloader\updater, I found the update which compiles fine and seems to be ok to use on a virgin STM32, according to the readme. I can flash the bootloader okay, and afterwards the two MIDI ports work okay.

Unfortunately, there is something wrong with the USB port. Windows 7 does not recognize the device and fails to install proper drivers. This is on an STM32_V2 board, and I am wondering if this is somehow related to R3 which I could not stuff, as I could not find any info on this. It is located next to J27, the boot jumper, and as I could not find any info on it I left it open.

Hi.

Not sure about the second problem but they may both be related. I guess that you are using the latest CodeSourcery toolchain? There seem to have been various changes which cause the memory overflow error. Either use an older (2009) version of their toolchain or download the MIDIbox one. Instructions are [=mios32&s=toolchain]here](windows_mios32_toolchain_core [MIDIbox])

Cheers

Phil

Well, I am not sure, I can see the codesourcery folder name, but I have installed the toolchain according to the instructions in the WIKI. That was about 10 months or so ago.

I’m also not sure about the second problem, but to the bootloader: you don’t need to compile it by yourself, as a precompiled binary (0x0000..0x3eff) is always part of any MIOS application build, because it’s added in http://svnmios.midibox.org/filedetails.php?repname=svn.mios32&path=%2Ftrunk%2Fmios32%2FSTM32F10x%2Fmios32_bsl.c

In other words: flash any MIOS32 application via JTAG or UART, this will install the bootloader as well!

Best Regards, Thorsten.

Toolchain: please use the official version which is qualified for MIOS32: http://www.ucapps.de/mios32_c.html

It won’t solve the bootloader compile issue - but again: you don’t have to compile it anyhow!

Best Regards, Thorsten.

Thanks - will do that.
