Programming and Debugging
*************************

.. zephyr:board-supported-runners::

Prerequisite
============

Before you can run Zephyr on the STM32MP257F-EV1 Evaluation board, you need to
set up the Cortex |reg|-A35 core with a Linux |reg| environment. The Cortex
|reg|-M33 core runs Zephyr as a coprocessor, and it requires the Cortex
|reg|-A35 to load and start the firmware using remoteproc.

One way to set up the Linux environment is to use the official ST
OpenSTLinux distribution, following the `Starter Package`_. (more information
about the procedure can be found in the `STM32MPU Wiki`_)

Loading the firmware
====================

Once the OpenSTLinux distribution is installed on the board, the Cortex |reg|
-A35 is responsible (in the current distribution) for loading the Zephyr
firmware image in DDR and/or SRAM and starting the Cortex |reg| -M33 core. The
application can be built using west, taking the :zephyr:code-sample:`blinky` as
an example.

.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/basic/blinky
:board: stm32mp257f_ev1/stm32mp257fxx/m33
:goals: build

The firmware can be copied to the board file system and started with the Linux
remoteproc framework. (more information about the procedure can be found in the
`STM32MP257F boot Cortex-M33 firmware`_)

Debugging
=========
Applications can be debugged using OpenOCD and GDB. The OpenOCD files can be
found at `device-stm-openocd`_.
The firmware must first be started by the Cortex |reg|-A35. The debugger can
then be attached to the running Zephyr firmware using OpenOCD.

- Build the sample:

.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/basic/blinky
:board: stm32mp257f_ev1/stm32mp257fxx/m33
:goals: build

- Copy the firmware to the board, load it and start it with remoteproc
(`STM32MP257F boot Cortex-M33 firmware`_). The orange LED should be blinking.
- Attach to the target:

.. code-block:: console

$ west attach
