STM32H747 Memory Mapped NOR-Flash AT25SF128A

[EmbeddedOrca]

Hi,

I'm trying to implement an external loader for the Arduino Giga R1 board with AT25S128A 128Mbit of external flash. After following the guide given in the external loader repo, I'm running into the problem, that I can erase, write & read from the memory fine, however, as soon as I try to turn on memory mapped mode, all the data reads as 0xFF...FF, both in code and in the STM32CubeIDE memory viewer. I think my problems could be related to MCU configuration, I would be grateful if someone could give some guidance, see the relevant code below and attached. 

quadspi.c:

uint8_t CSP_QSPI_EnableMemoryMappedMode(void) {
	QSPI_CommandTypeDef sCommand = { 0 };
	QSPI_MemoryMappedTypeDef sMemMappedCfg = { 0 };

	// Enable Memory-Mapped mode
	sCommand.InstructionMode = QSPI_INSTRUCTION_1_LINE;
	sCommand.Instruction = QUAD_INOUT_FAST_READ_CMD;
	sCommand.SIOOMode = QSPI_SIOO_INST_EVERY_CMD;
	sCommand.AddressMode = QSPI_ADDRESS_4_LINES;
	sCommand.AddressSize = QSPI_ADDRESS_24_BITS;
	sCommand.DataMode = QSPI_DATA_4_LINES;
	sCommand.AlternateByteMode = QSPI_ALTERNATE_BYTES_4_LINES;
	sCommand.AlternateBytesSize = QSPI_ALTERNATE_BYTES_8_BITS;
	sCommand.AlternateBytes = 0x00;
	sCommand.DummyCycles = 4;
	sCommand.DdrMode = QSPI_DDR_MODE_DISABLE;
	sCommand.DdrHoldHalfCycle = QSPI_DDR_HHC_ANALOG_DELAY;

//	sCommand.InstructionMode = QSPI_INSTRUCTION_1_LINE;
//	sCommand.Instruction = QUAD_OUT_FAST_READ_CMD;
//	sCommand.SIOOMode = QSPI_SIOO_INST_EVERY_CMD;
//	sCommand.AddressMode = QSPI_ADDRESS_1_LINE;
//	sCommand.AddressSize = QSPI_ADDRESS_24_BITS;
//	sCommand.Address = 0;
//	sCommand.DataMode = QSPI_DATA_4_LINES;
//	sCommand.NbData = 0;
//	sCommand.AlternateByteMode = QSPI_ALTERNATE_BYTES_1_LINE;
//	sCommand.AlternateBytesSize = QSPI_ALTERNATE_BYTES_8_BITS;
//	sCommand.AlternateBytes = 0x00;
//	sCommand.DummyCycles = 0;
//	sCommand.DdrMode = QSPI_DDR_MODE_DISABLE;
//	sCommand.DdrHoldHalfCycle = QSPI_DDR_HHC_ANALOG_DELAY;

	sMemMappedCfg.TimeOutActivation = QSPI_TIMEOUT_COUNTER_DISABLE;
	sMemMappedCfg.TimeOutPeriod = 0;

	if (HAL_QSPI_MemoryMapped(&hqspi, &sCommand, &sMemMappedCfg) != HAL_OK) {
		return HAL_ERROR;
	}

	return HAL_OK;
}

main.c test snippet:

  CSP_QUADSPI_Init();

  for (var = 0; var < MEMORY_SECTOR_SIZE; var++) {
      buffer_test[var] = (var & 0xFF);
  }
  for (var = 0; var < SECTORS_COUNT; var++) {
      if (CSP_QSPI_EraseSector(var * MEMORY_SECTOR_SIZE, (var + 1) * MEMORY_SECTOR_SIZE - 1) != HAL_OK) {
          while (1) {}
      }
      if (CSP_QSPI_WriteMemory(buffer_test, var * MEMORY_SECTOR_SIZE, sizeof(buffer_test)) != HAL_OK) {
          while (1) {}
      }
      if (CSP_QSPI_ReadMemory(buffer_read, var * MEMORY_SECTOR_SIZE, sizeof(buffer_test)) != HAL_OK) {
          while (1) {}
      }
  }

  if (CSP_QSPI_EnableMemoryMappedMode() != HAL_OK) {
      while (1) {}
  }
  uint8_t verify_buffer[MEMORY_SECTOR_SIZE] = {0};
  for (var = 0; var < SECTORS_COUNT; var++) {
      if (memcpy(verify_buffer, (uint8_t*) (0x90000000 + var * MEMORY_SECTOR_SIZE), MEMORY_SECTOR_SIZE) != HAL_OK) {
          while (1) {}
      }
  }

 Thank you for your help.

Hi @mpaj ,

Sorry for the late reply. Please find the whole project attached, the .stldr file is included as well. As far as i remember, you have to build the project in the release configuration for the M7 core and then rename the .elf file with .stldr extension.

All the best,

Jonah
