That post simply describes my tinkering notes on STM32MP2.
I would love to play with Yocto and Embedded kernel builds, as in my job unfortunately we are writing on bare metal, as we yearn energy - our devices needs to work up to 16 years, thus neither Linux nor even RTOS are valid here. Of course there are some disadvantages - we are not even close to real-time, although we do not it.
Nevertheless (too much on my job) - I somehow get STM32MP257F, thus I can play with it!
Of course - OpenOCD does not support STM32MP2x in apt packed version. When I am writing this package the latest version commit is was authored @ Oct 3, 2024, and latest released OpenOCD version was v0.12.0-rc3, which did not have MP2 support yet.
That leads to me building OpenOCD from scratch.
I needed to install libjim-dev to on Debian Sid to overcome the issue with:
configure: error: jimtcl is required but not found via pkg-config and system includes
After that I was able to connect to my board via:
/usr/local/bin/openocd -f tcl/board/st/stm32mp257f-dk.cfg
Although I was not able to connect with gdb:
Info : accepting 'gdb' connection on tcp/3335

Error: [stm32mp25x.m0p] Execution of event gdb-attach failed:

To be continued!
