STM32 Cube Programmer V2.2.0 still buggy

[Tesla DeLorean]

CLI application stops reading 16MB QSPI after reading less than 1MB (one buffer to RAM), percent progress bar doesn't advance.

STM32_Programmer_CLI --connect port=swd --vb 3 --log ext144r.log --extload CLIVEONE-W25Q128B_STM32H7xx-NUCLEO-144.stldr --upload 0x90000000 0x1000000 h7_144.bin

​Hi Clive,

The first issue of your ticket that was reading failed from Flash QSPi External, this problem is fixed in version 2.2.0.

But there is now another problem: read more than 1 MB (only available with CLI) is still not possible, I confirm.

The Cubeprogrammer development team is aware of this problem and will be corrected shortly.

Feel free to contact me for furthers details.

Best regards,

Houda

I have exactly the same problem. Do you need a beta tester for the --upload 0x00000000 0x1000000 fil.bin bug?

I've not seen resolution on this.

Seem to recall I can pull the whole payload via ST-LINK Utilities (4.5.0)

128MB via H750-DISCO

ST-LINK_CLI -c ID=0 SWD -Dump 0x90000000 0x8000000 extwhole.bin -EL "C:\CT\STM32\ST-LINK Utility V4.5.0\ExternalLoader\CLIVEONE-MT25TL01G_STM32H7-CUSTOM.stldr"

[mattb3.14159]

I'll give it a try, I haven't had much luck with the STLink utility, though I have been using the GUI software and not the CLI.

In working on an F7 HAL based loader (Micron N25Q128) I'm seeing the Init() function called many times, and getting some time-out issues when it reinitializes the clocks at each entry. The F7 "SPL-F5" code seems to be significantly more robust.

Hi Houda,

Have you seen these issues in my post "How to create CubeProg stldr loader file for QSPI external memory?". Please see my latest update in the post.
