Hi, 

I make the programming my stm32f4x chip using raspberry pi through OpenOcd. 

It's working and upload the code inboard but I am stuck in read protection level 2.

If we can not enable/active this through openocd then other option is also okay for me.

I just need to active level 2 protection through raspberry pi.

Hard time deciphering this..

If device is in Level 2 you aren't going to be able to access/modify it.

You cannot disable level 2 protection, ever. You need a new chip. From the RM:

Memory read protection Level 2 is an irreversible operation. When Level 2 is activated,

the level of protection cannot be decreased to Level 0 or Level 1.

HI,

As per the link i run this query for activate the level 2 protection.

openocd -f interface/stlink-v2-1.cfg -f target/stm32f4x.cfg -c"init" -c "reset halt" -c "mww 0x40023c14 0XCC"  -c"exit"

but still not it entered in level 2. Please correct the query if it wrong.
