Hello everyone,
I'm facing an issue with jumping from my application to the bootloader on an STM32H747 microcontroller. I'm using a 7-inch Riverdi display and have developed graphical interfaces using TouchGFX. My application, which I've built using only the M7 core (disabling the M4 core) and FreeRTOS for task management and graphics, has its main file structured as man1.c attached.I've also created a bootloader program with the following structure: The bootloader works perfectly when the STM32H747xx_FLASH.ld file contains the following instruction:
Assolutamente! Ecco la traduzione del tuo post in inglese, adatta per un forum tecnico come quello di STM:
Subject: Trouble Jumping to Bootloader from Application on STM32H747 with Riverdi Display and TouchGFX
Hello everyone,
I'm facing an issue with jumping from my application to the bootloader on an STM32H747 microcontroller. I'm using a 7-inch Riverdi display and have developed graphical interfaces using TouchGFX. My application, which I've built using only the M7 core (disabling the M4 core) and FreeRTOS for task management and graphics, has its main file structured as follows:
I've also created a bootloader program with the following structure:
The bootloader works perfectly when the STM32H747xx_FLASH.ld file contains the following instruction:
MEMORY
{
RAM_D1 (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x24000000, LENGTH = 512K
/*FLASH (rx) : ORIGIN = 0x08000000, LENGTH = 1024K*/ /* Memory is divided. Actual start is 0x08000000 and actual length is 2048K */
FLASH (rx) : ORIGIN = 0x08000000, LENGTH = 250K
DTCMRAM (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x20000000, LENGTH = 128K
RAM_D2 (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x30000000, LENGTH = 288K
RAM_D3 (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x38000000, LENGTH = 64K
ITCMRAM (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x00000000, LENGTH = 64K
SDRAM (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0xD0000000, LENGTH = 4M
SDRAM2 (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0xD0400000, LENGTH = 4M
}
However, when I try to jump to the bootloader from my application using a jump_to_bootloader() function, the jump to the bootloader fails. This is code snipet:
I've made to the .ld files of both the application and the bootloader.
// Application .ld
/* Memories definition */
MEMORY
{
RAM_D1 (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x24000000, LENGTH = 512K
/*FLASH (rx) : ORIGIN = 0x08000000, LENGTH = 1024K*/ /* Memory is divided. Actual start is 0x08000000 and actual length is 2048K */
FLASH (rx) : ORIGIN = 0x08000000, LENGTH = 724K
DTCMRAM (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x20000000, LENGTH = 128K
RAM_D2 (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x30000000, LENGTH = 288K
RAM_D3 (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x38000000, LENGTH = 64K
ITCMRAM (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x00000000, LENGTH = 64K
QUADSPI (r) : ORIGIN = 0x90000000, LENGTH = 64M
SDRAM (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0xD0000000, LENGTH = 4M
SDRAM2 (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0xD0400000, LENGTH = 4M
}
// Bootloader.ld
/* Memories definition */
MEMORY
{
RAM_D1 (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x24000000, LENGTH = 512K
/*FLASH (rx) : ORIGIN = 0x08000000, LENGTH = 1024K*/ /* Memory is divided. Actual start is 0x08000000 and actual length is 2048K */
FLASH (rx) : ORIGIN = 0x08B500000, LENGTH = 250K
DTCMRAM (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x20000000, LENGTH = 128K
RAM_D2 (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x30000000, LENGTH = 288K
RAM_D3 (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x38000000, LENGTH = 64K
ITCMRAM (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0x00000000, LENGTH = 64K
SDRAM (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0xD0000000, LENGTH = 4M
SDRAM2 (xrw) : ORIGIN = 0xD0400000, LENGTH = 4M
}
Could someone please advise on what modifications I need to make in both the application and the bootloader code to successfully jump to the bootloader? Is there something I'm missing in the process?How may I had to manage all peripherals?
Thank you in advance for your help!

#define BOOT_ADDR 0x080B50000
FLASH (rx) : ORIGIN = 0x08B500000, LENGTH = 250K
Should be 0x080B5000, Memory in range 0x08000000..0x081FFFFF (2MB)

Are you sure ? FLASH (rx) : ORIGIN = 0x08B500000, LENGTH = 250K
too your main dont show where and how you try jump. Primary jump to system bootloader is safe from safe state of MCU optimaly after boot main with som marker. No inside RTOS No with 20 peripherals active ... NEVER.
