In case of upgrade from OpenSTLinux ecosystem release v4, check first the previous release change notification listed below:

3. Impacted domains[edit source]

3.1. Yocto build environment for Distribution Package[edit source]

  • None

3.2. Hardware configuration[edit source]

Check the device tree files for the STMP32 MPU board:

Linux® kernel: between Linux kernel v6.1-stm32mp-r1 (v6.1.28) and previous Linux kernel v5.15-stm32mp-r2 (v5.15.67)


U-Boot: between U-Boot v2022.10-stm32mp-r1 and previous U-Boot v2021.10-stm32mp-r2

  • None

OP-TEE: between OP-TEE 3.19.0-stm32mp-r1 and previous OP-TEE 3.16.0-stm32mp-r2

  • None

TF-A: between TF-A v2.8-stm32mp-r1 and previous TF-A v2.6-stm32mp-r2


Info white.png Information
This is possible with git diff command to get delta between two branches in the same repository.
Example with STLINUX GitHub repository and for all STM32MP1 device tree files:

git diff 5.15-stm32mp-r2 6.1-stm32mp-r1 -- arch/arm/boot/dts/stm32mp1*

3.3. System configuration[edit source]


3.4. Boot stages[edit source]

  • ecosystem release v5.0.0 More info.png no more supports the TF-A SP-MIN as secure monitor.
    OP-TEE is only the supported BL32 and you must migrate the STM32MP15x lines More info.png projects to use it
  • The MTD partitions are defined in U-Boot device tree and no more in U-Boot defconfig

3.5. Security[edit source]

  • None

3.6. User space and applications[edit source]

  • None

4. References[edit source]
