Can I program a STM32MP157 using STM32CubeIDE and without OS?

[CJans.1]

I would like to program a STM32MP157 using STM32CuneIDE. So by cofiguring the peripherals, generating some interfacing code and make everything work using interrupt driver routines. I do not want to use some operating system. Just writing code for each core.

Is that possible?

Hello @CJans.1​ ,

It is possible to program STM32MP157 in bare metal on M4 cortex, with using CubeIDE / CubeMX tools suite. (https://wiki.st.com/stm32mpu/wiki/Getting_started/STM32MP1_boards/STM32MP157x-EV1/Develop_on_Arm%C2%AE_Cortex%C2%AE-M4).

However, if you want to program in bare metal on A7 cortex (that host the Linux Kernel in our configuration), it is also possible but ST does not provide support for it. I know open source projects on Github explain this, and I advice you to take a look at it if you want to go in this direction.

Kind regards,

Erwan.

Can I select FreeRTOS in stead of Linux for the A7 core(s)?

@CJans.1​ ,

In theory you can but it will need investigations on your side, as the only thing that ST support on A7 cortex is Linux (When I say support, I mean in term of customer support).

Kind regards,

Erwan.
