stm32flash - has anyone got a working version?

tingo

I compiled stm32flash under FreeBSD 8.4-STABLE:
Code: 
tingo@kg-core1$ uname -a
FreeBSD kg-core1.kg4.no 8.4-STABLE FreeBSD 8.4-STABLE #0 r253646: Thu Jul 25 10:12:31 UTC 2013
     root@kg-core1.kg4.no:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  amd64
I just unpacked the source code and compiled it, no patches:
Code: 
tingo@kg-core1$ pwd
/home/tingo/work/stm32flash
tingo@kg-core1$ gmake
gmake -C parsers

The resulting binary appears to work:
Code: 
tingo@kg-core1$ ./stm32flash
stm32flash - http://stm32flash.googlecode.com/

ERROR: Device not specified
Usage: ./stm32flash [-bvngfhc] [-[rw] filename] /dev/ttyS0
    -b rate        Baud rate (default 57600)

            This is useful if the reset fails

Examples:
    Get device information:
        ./stm32flash /dev/ttyS0

    Write with verify and then start execution:
        ./stm32flash -w filename -v -g 0x0 /dev/ttyS0

    Read flash to file:
        ./stm32flash -r filename /dev/ttyS0

    Start execution:
        ./stm32flash -g 0x0 /dev/ttyS0
I have an STM32 board connected to cuaU0/ttyU0:
Code: 
tingo@kg-core1$ ls -l /dev/cuaU* /dev/ttyU*
crw-rw----  1 uucp  operator    0, 159 Aug 18 17:26 /dev/cuaU0
crw-rw----  1 uucp  operator    0, 160 Aug 18 17:26 /dev/cuaU0.init
crw-rw----  1 uucp  operator    0, 161 Aug 18 17:26 /dev/cuaU0.lock
crw-rw----  1 root  operator    0, 156 Aug 18 17:26 /dev/ttyU0
crw-rw----  1 root  operator    0, 157 Aug 18 17:26 /dev/ttyU0.init
crw-rw----  1 root  operator    0, 158 Aug 18 17:26 /dev/ttyU0.lock
and my user has access:
Code: 
tingo@kg-core1$ id
uid=1001(tingo) gid=1001(users) groups=1001(users),0(wheel),5(operator)
Still it doesn't work:
Code: 
tingo@kg-core1$ ./stm32flash /dev/cuaU0
stm32flash - http://stm32flash.googlecode.com/

/dev/cuaU0: No such file or directory
tingo@kg-core1$ ./stm32flash /dev/ttyU0
stm32flash - http://stm32flash.googlecode.com/

/dev/ttyU0: No such file or directory
It doesn't work as root either, so it doesn't look like a permissions problem.

BTW, stm32flash with the same board and cable works nicely under Linux. Any hints on what could be wrong?
 
Indeed they do. First advice is to run truss(1) on the command, like this:
Code: 
tingo@kg-core1$ truss ./stm32flash /dev/cuaU0

Hopefully someone sees something not normal here.
 
Right after it tries to open a bunch of NLS stuff, it says that the serial port does not exist. Can you build it without NLS?
 
I don't think I can build it without NLS, the program just uses perror(). However, somebody has already figured out that the problem is in the serial_setup() function (in serial_posix.c); the code does a tcsetattr() followed by a tcgetattr(), and if the values returned by the tcgetattr() doesn't match the ones given as argument to the tcsetattr(), the code just returns with, in effect "serial port does not exist". Not very elegant, but I haven't had time to fix it.
 
Ok, I had a look at it today, and it was a problem with termios flags in the serial routines (serial_posix.c). Part of the code for the serial_setup() function is:
Code: 
	switch(parity) {
		case SERIAL_PARITY_NONE: port_parity = 0;                       break;
		case SERIAL_PARITY_EVEN: port_parity = INPCK | PARENB;          break;
		case SERIAL_PARITY_ODD : port_parity = INPCK | PARENB | PARODD; break;

		default:
			return SERIAL_ERR_INVALID_PARITY;
	}
which later gets stuffed into control flags:
Code: 
	h->newtio.c_cflag |=
		port_parity	|
		port_bits	|
		port_stop	|
		CLOCAL		|
		CREAD;
The only problem with that is that INPCK is an input flag (on FreeBSD at last, haven't checked Linux), so when the code later compares the control flags sent to tcsetattr with the ones read from tcgetattr, they differ. And since the checking part looks like this:
Code: 
	if (
		settings.c_iflag != h->newtio.c_iflag ||
		settings.c_oflag != h->newtio.c_oflag ||
		settings.c_cflag != h->newtio.c_cflag ||
		settings.c_lflag != h->newtio.c_lflag
	)	return SERIAL_ERR_UNKNOWN;
we get the "no such file" error. Simply removing INPCK from the code above and recompiling gives me (you have to put the board in the correct mode first, by holding down the BOOT0 button while pressing the RESET button):
Code: 
tingo@kg-core1$ ./stm32flash /dev/cuaU0
stm32flash - http://stm32flash.googlecode.com/

Serial Config: 57600 8E1
Version      : 0x22
Option 1     : 0x00
Option 2     : 0x00
Device ID    : 0x0410 (Medium-density)
RAM          : 20KiB  (512b reserved by bootloader)
Flash        : 128KiB (sector size: 4x1024)
Option RAM   : 15b
System RAM   : 2KiB

Resetting device... done.
So now it works.
