1. Overview[edit | edit source]
This stage explains how to install the SDK.
The SDK for OpenSTLinux distribution provides a standalone cross-development toolchain and libraries tailored to the contents of the specific image flashed onto the board.
2. Host computer configuration[edit | edit source]
2.1. Install extra packages[edit | edit source]
Additional Ubuntu packages must be installed to perform basic development tasks, basic cross-compilation (via Developer Package) or more complex cross-compilation such as OpenEmbedded does (via Distribution Package):
- Packages required by OpenEmbedded/Yocto (details here):
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gawk wget git diffstat unzip texinfo gcc-multilib chrpath socat cpio python3 python3-pip python3-pexpect
xz-utils debianutils iputils-ping python3-git python3-jinja2 libegl1-mesa libsdl1.2-dev pylint xterm bsdmainutils
sudo apt-get install libssl-dev libgmp-dev libmpc-dev lz4 zstd
- Packages needed for some "Developer Package" use cases:
sudo apt-get install build-essential libncurses-dev libncurses5 libyaml-dev libssl-dev
- Package for repo (used to download the "Distribution Package" source code):
repo.First set python3 as default: sudo apt install python-is-python3 Then follow the installation instructions described in
- Useful tools:
sudo apt-get install coreutils bsdmainutils sed curl bc lrzsz corkscrew cvs subversion mercurial nfs-common nfs-kernel-server libarchive-zip-perl dos2unix texi2html libxml2-utils
2.2. Additional configurations[edit | edit source]
Additional configurations have to be installed to support up to 16 partitions per MMC. By default, on Linux® systems, a maximum of 8 partitions are allowed on MMC. All Packages (Starter Package, ...) need more than 10 partitions for the storage device. In order to extend the number of partitions per device to 16, the following options must be added to modprobe:
echo 'options mmc_block perdev_minors=16' > /tmp/mmc_block.conf
sudo mv /tmp/mmc_block.conf /etc/modprobe.d/mmc_block.conf
3. For STM32MP1 series[edit | edit source]
The STM32MP1 SDK is delivered through two tarball file named :
- en.sdk-x86_64-stm32mp1-openstlinux-6.1-yocto-mickledore-mpu-v24.06.26.tar.gz for x86_64 host architecture
- en.sdk-aarch64-stm32mp1-openstlinux-6.1-yocto-mickledore-mpu-v24.06.26.tar.gz for arm64 host architecture
Download and install the STM32MP1 SDK. The software package is provided AS IS, and by downloading it, you agree to be bound to the terms of the software license agreement (SLA0048). The detailed content licenses can be found here.
