Issue with Bootloader Jump to Application on STM32F072RBT6 – Stalling at HAL_Delay()

[shyamparmar]

I am currently working on the STM32F072RBT6 microcontroller and have developed a bootloader that successfully jumps to a specified location. The bootloader is located at address 0x08000000, and the main application is at 0x08006000.

The bootloader is able to jump to the main application, but when the main application starts, it stops at the very first HAL_Delay() statement.

Could you please help me troubleshoot this issue and suggest any possible solutions? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance! 

below the mention function for jump bootloader to application code:

static void goto_application(void){

void (*app_reset_handler)(void ) = (void (*) (void))(*(volatile uint32_t *)(0x08006000 + 4));

__disable_irq();

__set_MSP((*(volatile uint32_t *)0x08006000));

__enable_irq();

app_reset_handler();

}

Has the tick source for HAL_Delay been properly configured & enabled?

Besides jumping to application, you also need to solve the issue with vector table, for the interrupts (including SysTick which provides the tick for the delay function) to work properly.

In Cortex-M0, there is no way to redirect the vector table (in all other Cortex-Mx there's a VTOR register in the processor for this purpose); so the only option is to copy the vector table to RAM, and remap RAM to 0x0000'0000. Search this forum for details, this has been discussed here multiple times.

Have you relocated the vector table to RAM? The bootloader/app problem with F0/Cortex-M0 is covered in many thread on this forum - just look at them.

You've been asking the same questions for a week or more.

The issue is at the other side. It's not at the jump/transfer point.

It is in your application, how it manages interrupts and how it relocates the vectors.

As told multiple times, you need to move the table to the base of RAM, 0x20000000, and them remap that at zero.

Look at any working IAP example for the platform.

Start looking and presenting the right code, you're look in the WRONG place.
