Can't able to populate the target and boot the image on STM32MP157C-DK2

[SChau.2062]

Hello,

We are playing with STM32MP157C-DK2 and trying to setup the device through the getting started provided at URL: https://wiki.st.com/stm32mpu/wiki/Getting_started/STM32MP1_boards/STM32MP157C-DK2/Let%27s_start/Unpack_the_STM32MP157C-DK2_board

We can't able to populate the SD card and it prints the following error:

Hello,

Seems your use a Virtual Manchine.

When uBoot start, it reconnect the USB, the Virtual Machine could take longer to get the USB driver up and running on VM side (in some settings, it could be also stuck on Windows side), could you try to add -tm 20000 to the CubeProgrammer command line to increase the timeout?

Could you also provide the log of the DK2 console output (available as VCP 115200 8 N 1 using ST-Link connector) ?

Hello @PatrickF​ ,

Thanks for the quick response.

I have tried to increase the timeout:

er_CLI -c port=usb1 -tm 20000 -w flashlayout_st-image-weston/FlashLayout_sdcard_stm32mp157c-dk2-trusted.tsv

But still got the same error.

Here is the log of the DKL2 console:

Thanking you!

[PatrickF]

Maybe due to a bad STLINK FW (v2.33), Unfortunately, the one embedded in some version of CubeProgrammer was this bad one.

Please use FW update with latest CubeProgrammer or directly use the very latest FW upgrade utility (recommended) here https://www.st.com/content/st_com/en/products/development-tools/software-development-tools/stm32-software-development-tools/stm32-programmers/stsw-link007.html#get-software

If you are using a Virtual Machine, could you try using CubeProgrammer on Windows (with VirtualBox/VMWare not running) ?

[SChau.2062]

@PatrickF​ .

I will try above both suggested approaches and inform you.

[SChau.2062]

Hello @PatrickF​ ,

Thanks for the kind help. It's working with CubeProgrammer on Windows. Could you please explain me the reason?

How can I make it run through VMWare on Ubuntu 16.04? I want to setup https://wiki.st.com/stm32mpu/wiki/STM32MP1_artificial_intelligence_expansion_packages. All the instructions/commands are given for the Linux based system so it seems to be relatively easy with Linux.

One way is that I can compile and build AI library on Linux distribution and flash it to a device using Windows. Will this work?

Could you please guide me?

[PatrickF]

Issue could be on USB port on Virtual Machine which are not always automatically connected.

In VMWare, you have a menu (Player/Removable Devices) where you can choose which devices belong to Virtual Machine or to Windows. I think VirtualBox should have similar setting.

When uBoot start, it will reconnect using different USB descriptor (USB download gadget@Device ID /0x500, @Revision ID /0x0000). Please check at that time in your VM if you have one new removable device to 'connect' to your Virtual Machine.

Once done, this setting should be persistent in your VM and you can retry the DK2 programming process from scratch.

[SChau.2062]

Thanks for sharing your views!

Hello @PatrickF​ , Community.

I got same problem but probably a bit deeper. Please give me some advice.

So, on the same stage I have same problem, with exception that USB filter at VM are set by vendor ID(0483) . I try this way , and same steps described here.

St-link trace and query below. I took images from en.FLASH-stm32mp1-openstlinux-5.15-yocto-kirkstone-mp1-v22.11.23.tar for my mp157a-dk1 board, just renamed it to simplify input.

First of all i do the same in STMCubeProgrammer app, variants OPTEE and TRUSTED.

Also I tried the same on standalone Ubuntu 18, same results(on Win tried too). I try two ways via usb and uart. with UART there is different output, but same disconnection and no boot(OTP query doesn't work too)

Am I right that on this step it doesn't matter presence and condition of SDcard?

where should I look mistake? the board is new, no hardware changes was made.

UART try:
