I have ordered the black pill ( STM32F411CEU6, real ones ) to replace my blue pill dev kits that didn't have enough RAM and have had nothing but issues getting it going. I have generated the project using STM32CubeIDE.
I'm using A11, 12, 13 for GPIO output and PB9, 8 for I2C communication, and A10, 11 for my USART device.
I am able to get the st link programmer and software to detect my black pill and debug for a short duration until I enter MX_GPIO_Init()
After this the programmer loses communication with the device and prevents me from doing any real programming. Some places I have looked says to try to set the Sys -> Debug setting to "Serial Wire" but this is disabled by default for me and am unable to switch it.
In context of debugging when I do debug in live mode I can see a debug enabled
Starting server with the following options:
Persistent Mode : Disabled
Logging Level : 1
Listen Port Number : 61234
Status Refresh Delay : 15s
Verbose Mode : Disabled
SWD Debug : Enabled
InitWhile : Enabled
So the debugging looks like it's set up properly but I just don't understand why it can't call the init for the GPIO from looking at the debug console I get this
handle_vCont_c, Failed continue thread
which is thrown after entering this function
HAL_GPIO_Init(GPIOA, &GPIO_InitStruct);
which doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me as I have not seen this before, can someone please help me out setting up this project properly? thanks.
The serial wire debug interface is defined for PA13 and PA14. In CubeMx IDE, first set SYS->Debug->Serial Wire. Select another pin for GPIO instead of PA13.

I use a chip from MTK7628,Currently, the kernel supports pps processing. Because the pps of my ublox is connected to gpio, i use make menuconfig and choose gpio mode
enter image description here
Because my chip does not support modifying the device tree,so i creat a dev-pps.c file in /home/luke/MtkOpenwrt/build_dir/target-mipsel_24kec+dsp_uClibc-0.9.33.2/linux-ramips_mt7628/linux-3.10.14/arch/mips/ralink, write the following code and compiled it into the firmware
enter image description here
When I write the firmware into the chip, the system will prompt the following error
enter image description here
Gpio 11 is connected to PPS and has been set to GPIO mode,this pin is not occupied either.I don't understand why the error "failed to request GPIO 11" is displayed.
About "probe of pps-gpio failed with error -22",I can not find a solution online.
Later, i use make kernel_menuconfig and choose gpio mode, turn off the PPS option in make menuconfig, as a result, after burning the firmware, the system will prompt the same error as before.
enter image description here
How do I resolve these two errors now?
I have a nucleo-144 board with stm32f746zg MCU. I'm trying to program the board with openocd, using gnu make and the makefile generated from stm32cubemx. I've added following line to my makefile to automate the flashing process:
flash: all
openocd -f interface/stlink.cfg -f target/stm32f7x.cfg -c "program $(BUILD_DIR)/$(TARGET).elf verify reset exit"
The code compiles without any problem and when I type make flash in the terminal the result is:
❯ make flash
openocd -f interface/stlink.cfg -f target/stm32f7x.cfg -c "program build/my-board.elf verify reset exit"

But the program doesn't run on the board and there's no blinking. I tried this in windows and wsl ubuntu. In both cases the results are the same. Also tried loading the binary file instead of .elf but again no luck.
Can somebody tell me what am I doing wrong here?
Ok. I'm not sure if I should post this as an answer, but the problem wasn't either openocd or the broken hardware.
When I started the project in cubemx, I initialized the default nucleo-f746zg peripherals and for some reason (probably one of the peripherals need higher clock frequency to work properly) in clock configuration the default clock source is selected as HSE and this option cannot be changed. On the other hand the nucleo board doesn't come with an external oscillator and it should be soldered by the user. So after generating the code and flashing it to the board it causes an error and the program doesn't run. Although, I think there was a block of code in clock configuration of HAL libraries that would "try" to use HSE and PLL as clock source and in case of not responding or any problem in settings, the HSI would be used as default source.
Anyway when I start the project from MCU selector in cubemx and don't use nucleo initializations, I can set the clock to HSI and everything works fine.
I'm busy bring up some new hardware with a STM32F030C8 mcu. I'm using the STM32CubeIDE with gcc. I'm very new to microcontroller development and this is my first project with ST and their tools.
This is a very basic program that just triggers a GPIO. The rest is all generated code. As I have very little experience in this field I hope somebody can point to a location where I can look. I suspect that it might be a configuration issue.
Here is the code (I removed all generated comments to keep it a bit more compact):
int main(void)
{
HAL_Init();
SystemClock_Config();
MX_GPIO_Init();
HAL_GPIO_TogglePin(GPIOB, GPIO_PIN_2); //my code 1
HAL_GPIO_TogglePin(GPIOB, GPIO_PIN_2); //my code 2
while (1)
{
HAL_GPIO_TogglePin(GPIOB, GPIO_PIN_2);
HAL_Delay(1000);
}
}
When I step through the code It will trigger the GPIO on "my code 1" once I step to "my code 2" it will cause the issue. I have even tried just running a fully generated program with no modifications and the issue persists. This was a quick test to see if the program actually does run on the mcu. And it does, as well as trigger the GPIO.
Debugger console Output:
Temporary breakpoint 1, main () at ../Core/Src/main.c:74
74 HAL_Init();
Program received signal SIGTRAP, Trace/breakpoint trap.
0x1fffecec in ?? ()
The Temporary breakpoint is where the program starts, I can then either run from there. Or step through, all with the same result.

The code is placed at 0x08000000. There is no user code at 0x1fffecec. It system area and probably it boots the system bootloader. It shows that the BOOTx pin is incorrectly connected.
This question may be so obvious it is stupid but I am failing to come up with an answer for it.
I am trying to make a simple makefile project for the sam4s xplained board from Atmel.
I am new to ARM and am feeling a bit lost in how to get stuff to work. Here is what I do trying to get the LEDs to work:
/* Enable clock for PIOC. */
PMC->PMC_WPMR = PMC_WPMR_WPKEY_PASSWD;
PMC->PMC_PCER0 = PMC_PCER0_PID13; /* PIOC clock enable. */
/* Enable output for LED. */
PIOC->PIO_WPMR = PIO_WPMR_WPKEY_PASSWD; /* Enable writing to registers. */
PIOC->PIO_PER = PIO_PER_P10 | PIO_PER_P17; /* Enable pio 10, 17. */
PIOC->PIO_OER = PIO_OER_P10 | PIO_OER_P17; /* Set pio10 and 17 as output. */
PIOC->PIO_SODR = PIO_SODR_P10; /* Set pio10. */
PIOC->PIO_CODR = PIO_CODR_P17; /* Clear pio17 . */
But absolutely nothing happens. Am I missing something?
There should be user LEDs at PIOC 10 and 17.

The problem was not in the code but in Atmel's tools used to program the board. I had been using SAM-BA In-system Programmer to program the board but for some reason it failed to change the contents of the flash. Even setting a single manually in the memory view fails.
I instead tried Seggers JLink software and did the following steps:
Update the JLink driver on the board using Atmel Studio 6 (this step requires windows).
Downloaded the J-Link software package for Linux from Segger: https://www.segger.com/jlink-software.html.
Using JLinkExe to program the board, like so:
Make sure JP25 is disconnected - only needed for sam-ba.
Connect via usb with the jtag connector.
Start JLinkExe
In the JLink terminal do:
JLink> device at91sam4s16c
JLink> loadbin <target.bin>, 0x400000
Sometimes I need to reset the board before it works after programming it. Using the Segger tools debugging also works now. Start gdb server with JLinkGDBServer and connect with arm-none-eabi-gdb using:
(gdb) target remote :2331
(gdb) file <target.elf>
The STM32F2 micro-controller has build in capabilities to prevent readout of application code using a debug interface. It works fine and is accomplished pretty easily by configuring the read protection(RDP) level to '1' (!0xAA || !0xCC) or '2' (0xCC which is irreversible). Except trying to turn it off is where i run in to issues.
The expected behavior when the RDP level is lowered back to 0:
The chip will perform a mass flash erase.
Followed by clearing the protection flag.
System reset
Except after a power cycle the flash has been successfully erased but the protection flag remains on level '1' (0x55) keeping the debug interface disabled. And thus preventing me from writing any new application code. It is possible to fiddle around with the debugger and force the flag to level 0 (0xAA) manually though..
Is there anyone who have had the same or similar issues with the STM32F2xx series that can help me out? I'm using the STM32 standard peripheral drivers for programming the flash.
Enable
// Enable read out protection
FLASH_OB_Unlock();
FLASH_OB_RDPConfig(OB_RDP_Level_1);
FLASH_OB_Launch();
FLASH_OB_Lock();
// Restart platform
NVIC_SystemReset();
Disable
// Disable read out protection
FLASH_OB_Unlock();
FLASH_OB_RDPConfig(OB_RDP_Level_0);
FLASH_OB_Launch();
FLASH_OB_Lock();
// Restart platform
NVIC_SystemReset();
This is because before the clearing the protection flag, and in the middle of mass flash erase, you restart the chip.
The only way to recover the chip is to use the system bootloader.
Force boot0 pin to be 1 and force boot1 pin to be 0 at power up, start bootloader then connect USB and program the chip with DFU programmer.
You can download the DFU programmer here.
I used the library as follows (it was not working without FLASH_Unlock();):
// Flash Readout Protection Level 1
if (FLASH_OB_GetRDP() != SET) {
FLASH_Unlock(); // this line is critical!
FLASH_OB_Unlock();
FLASH_OB_RDPConfig(OB_RDP_Level_1);
FLASH_OB_Launch(); // Option Bytes programming
FLASH_OB_Lock();
FLASH_Lock();
}
No need for NVIC_SystemReset();.
