Board support package includes the following components:
- mainline Linux kernel 5.15.108
- mainline U-Boot 2023.04
- default packages from buildroot
Note: There is a problem in u-boot display management. It should display
the ST microelectronics logo but "noise" is displayed (like when running
the command dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/fb0 in Linux). I also tried to
change version (even the first version in which this feature was
introduced), but without success. Despite this I decided not to disable
the video management configuration to remind us that it needs to be
fixed :).

Newer versions of the kernel generate device trees that are not
storable in a single 16kB sector. In these cases the kernel load address
must be changed.
The commit 2e499dcff3ef ("Add possibility to use custom kernel load address")
adds the possibility to override the default (0x08008000) kernel load
address.
This also required changes to the stm32f429_disco_defconfig and
stm32f469_disco_xip_defconfig configurations. Patching is no longer
needed.

Also change the kernel load address from 0x8010000 to 0x800C000 to

The patch [1], which is required for DRM to work properly, has been
merged into Linux version 5.14-rc3. There's a 5.14.12 now in stable, so
I took that one.
After Linux boots, /dev/fb0 will be accessible. You can control the
brightness of the display after enabling the framebuffer by running the
following commands:
~ # echo 0 0 > /sys/class/graphics/fb0/pan
~ # echo 255 >/sys/class/backlight/40016c00.dsi.0/brightness
The brightness ranges from 0 to 255, as you can see running the
command:
~ # cat /sys/class/backlight/40016c00.dsi.0/max_brightness

The stm32mp157 images successfully boot only once. Subsequent boot
attempts fail to reach U-Boot. The root cause turns out to be in U-Boot
corruption during the first boot. The stm32mp1 U-Boot stores its
environment at the end of GPT partition named 'ssbl' since v2020.10-rc2.
However Buildroot genimage template for stm32mp157 boards creates 'ssbl'
partition w/o extra space for U-Boot primary and redundant environments.
This patch explicitly specifies 'ssbl' partition size that should be
enough for both u-boot.stm32 image (~1M) and both environments (16K).

As described by [1], the kernel generated by the configuration for the
STM32f469 Discovery board is buggy. Using a newer kernel, as suggested
by [1], increases the dtb and Kernel image size. In particular, the
5.12 version of the kernel generates a dtb and a kernel image whose sum
exceeds the 2 MByte of the flash module.
So I decided to replace the afboot-stm32 bootloader in the flash with
U-boot to easily boot the system from sdcard without having to worry
about the size of dtb, kernel and rootfs generated by the configuration.
This solution allows you to fix the kernel boot issue and makes it
possible to use its future versions.

This commit changes the stm32mp1 configurations to use the TF-A ->
U-Boot boot flow (called "trusted boot flow" by ST) instead of the
U-Boot SPL -> U-Boot boot flow. ST recommands this trusted boot, and
it's also the only one that allows to use the STM32 Cube Programmer
for reflashing devices.
As part of this, the genimage configuration file is now generated, as
it contains some file names that depend on the platform. Removing
partition-type from genimage.cfg is mandatory, since it would cause a
hybrid MBR partition table to be created, which itself would prevent
ATF from finding the ssbl parition.

This commit adds a minimal defconfig to build a Buildroot system for
the STM32MP157 Discovery Kit, which is the low-cost evaluation
platform for the new STM32MP157 system-on-chip from ST. This
system-on-chip features a single or dual Cortex-A7, a single
Cortex-M4, and a wide variety of peripherals.
This commit includes a custom linux configuration file, because there
is no specific defconfig for this platform in the kernel, only
multi_v7_defconfig supports it, which is really a massive
defconfig. That's why a custom linux configuration file is added.
A small U-Boot config fragment allows to disable the watchdog, so that
userspace by default doesn't need to have a watchdog daemon running.
The vendor U-Boot and Linux trees are used for the moment, but the
platform support is being upstreamed, so switching to upstream
versions will be possible in the relatively near future.

This commit adds a defconfig for the STM32F429 platform, which is
based on a Cortex-M4 core from ST Microelectronics. It is therefore
the first noMMU ARM platform supported in Buildroot.
This commit includes some files that will be common to several STM32
platforms (hence in board/stmicroelectronics) and some files that are
specific to the STM32F429 (hence in
board/stmicroelectronics/stm32f429-disco). More specifically, this
commit adds:
- A minimal Busybox configuration, which is small enough to boot
without causing OOM on such small noMMU platforms. The resulting
Busybox, statically linked with uClibc-ng, weights around 220
KB. For now, this file is located in board/stmicroelectronics/, but
we might consider moving it to package/busybox/ in the future if
needed.
- A post-build script that removes the mounting of /dev/pts (not
enabled in the kernel and not very useful for a system that has no
network and no X), and removes the network related init script and
configuration files (no network support).
- A flash.sh script, to perform the right OpenOCD invocations to
reflash the board.
- One small kernel patch to adjust the kernel command line in the
Device Tree, since it's the only way to do so.
- The usual readme.txt file.
