External Loader - stldr ERROR PARSING FAIL

[JOHNROSE]

Hello,

I am attempting to make an external loader for a QuadSPI flash S25FL256SAGMFI000 using the STM32F769 and STM32CubeIDE.

I followed this tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnMKNibPkDnHIrq5BICcFhLsmJFI_ytvE

I was able to run the code to the end of the while loop like described in the video and successfully wrote/read to memory at address 0x90000000.

I am able to generate an stldr file, but when I try to load it in the CubeProgrammer the file displays the error "ERROR PARSING FAIL". The programmer also does not display the right start address, the memory size, page size, or type, which leads me to believe there is a problem with the Dev_Inf.c file.

Has anyone seen this error before and can steer me in the right direction of where to look to correct it? I have attached the Dev_Inf.c, Loader_Src.c, and quadspi.c files. Please let me know what other files I can attach for review.

Thank you!

Start with the .ELF / .STLDR, inspect with tools like OBJDUMP, FROMELF or OBJCOPY, try to understand how the form differs from those that load/work properly.

Make sure it's exporting the expected functions, and builds for RAM at 0x20000004
