STM32CubeProgrammer OTP management

Applicable for STM32MP13x lines  STM32MP15x lines    STM32MP23x lines  STM32MP25x lines

STM32CubeProgrammer can be used to read and update the OTP of the device, which is seen as a partition on the device.

This page describes the format of the partition used by the embedded programming service to allow OTP access by STM32CubeProgrammer (see AN5275: USB DFU/USART protocols used in STM32MP1 series bootloaders for protocol details).

Refer to the STM32CubeProgrammer article to know how to use the STM32CubeProgrammer that is the official STMicroelectronics tool to update OTP on STM32 platforms.

1. OTP partition[edit | edit source]

The OTP partition is identified with the reserved Id 0xF2 and is exported as:

  • a specific alternate setting of the USB DFU [1].
  • a special operation: OTP write (0xF2), for UART download command (0x31) and read partition command (0x12)

This is used to access the STM32MP's on-chip one time-programmable memory by the STM32CubeProgrammer (see option -otp). It is only supported in the embedded programming service = U-Boot.

The OTP partition must be programmed without a header and have a fixed size following the structure described in the chapter #Data Structure.

The OTP operation can be limited in OP-TEE, that is for security reason. In OpenSTLinux distribution the service is available only for open device (see OP-TEE PTA for details). The OTP partition is only present when the operations are supported.

1.1. Access operation[edit | edit source]

To allow provisioning, all the OTPs accessible by the secure world are exposed by this partition (upper or lower OTP) without any device tree modification. To restrict access to OTP, for example, for security reason, the device can be closed or the provisioning TA can be deactivated in the final software delivery.

For read operation, the host requests the OTP partition data, and the platform replies with all the partition content.

For write operation, the host needs to send the full structure containing one or more modifications. The platform analyses each field.

First the OTP values are updated, then the OTP controls (such as lock) are updated.

After any write operation, a read must be done to update the Host information.

1.2. Data structure[edit | edit source]

For ecosystem release ≥ v4.0.0 , the same structure is used for

1.2.1. version 1[edit | edit source]

The version 1 data structure was used on ecosystem release ≤ v3.1.0 .

1.2.2. version 2[edit | edit source]

The data structure version 2 is described in the table below and its size is:

  • 776 bytes with 96 OTP for STM32MP1 series = (2 * 96 + 2) * 4 bytes for 32 bits word, with M = 0 to 95,
  • 2952 bytes with 368 available OTP for STM32MP2 series = (2 * 368 + 2) * 4 bytes for 32 bits word, with M = 0 to 367 (no access to HWKEY and STM32PRVKEY).
Word Field name Description
0 Version Version of this structure = 2
1 Global State bit-field with state of BSEC the OTP provider[GlobalState 1]
2 OTP[0] OTP value
  • 0x0 on read error or read lock
  • 0x0 to write with unmodified value (lock only)
3 OTP[0] status Status of OTP:
  • [0]: 1 bit read error detected: 1 = OTP value isn't valid
  • [26]: 1 bit lock error
  • [27]: 1 bit sticky programming lock
  • [28]: 1 bit shadow write sticky lock
  • [29]: 1 bit shadow read sticky lock
  • [30]: 1 bit permanent write lock
  • [31]: 1 bit prog requested an update of this OTP, value and/or status (only for write, always 0 on read)
4 OTP[1] OTP value
5 OTP[1] status Status of OTP
... ... ...
2+M*2 OTP[M] Value of OTP M
3+M*2 OTP[M] status Status of OTP M
  1. ↑ Global state: is not used during a write operation, its value should be 0 for write request
  2. ↑ Provisioning = OTP-SECURED open_device BSEC state, the secrets are not provisioned (see Life cycle for detail).
  3. ↑ Secured = OTP-SECURED closed_device BSEC state, the secrets are provisioned and protected (see Life cycle for detail).

You can write OTP without read operation by using a buffer initialized with 0x0, except the version word set to 0x2.

You can also read the current value of the OTP in a buffer and reuse the same buffer for the write operation, as bit 31 of OTP status is 0 for read.

To update an OTP, you need to update the used buffer for the modified OTP:

  • the OTP value, set at 0x0 if unmodified for lock only operation
  • the OTP status lock values for prog lock and/or read lock after OTP value update, set to 0x0 if unmodified
  • request the update: set the bit 31 of the OTP status to indicate a modification request of this OTP

The operation is interrupted on the first error.

1.2.3. version 3[edit | edit source]

The data structure version 3 is used by STM32PRGFW-UTIL and adds SHA-256 after the #version 2 buffer, so the size increased by 32 bytes.

Word Field name Description
0 Version Version of this structure = 3
1 Global State as previous version
2 OTP[0] as previous version
3 OTP[0] status as previous version
... ... ...
2+M*2 OTP[M] Value of OTP M
3+M*2 OTP[M] status Status of OTP M
4+M*2 SHA256 word 0
5+M*2 SHA256 word 1
6+M*2 SHA256 word 2
7+M*2 SHA256 word 3

2. Examples[edit | edit source]

2.1. Operations with OTP status[edit | edit source]

With OTP[0] status bit-field values:

  • programmation request: bit31 => 0x80000000
  • permanent lock: bit 30 => 0x40000000

Some simple operations are, with the structure full of zero except:

  • write X in OTP_N
    • OTP[N] value = X
    • OTP[N] status = 0x80000000
  • prog lock OTP N
    • OTP[N] value = 0x0
    • OTP[N] status = 0xC0000000
  • write and lock OTP N
    • OTP[N] value = X
    • OTP[N] status = 0xC0000000
  • write value and sticky read+permanent lock for OTP N to N+2
    • OTP[N] value = X
    • OTP[N] status = 0xE0000000
    • OTP[N + 1] value = Y
    • OTP[N + 1] status = 0xE0000000
    • OTP[N + 2] value = Z
    • OTP[N + 2] status = 0xE0000000

2.2. Examples with STM32Programmer[edit | edit source]

2.3. Examples with dfu-util[edit | edit source]

The tools dfu-util can be also used to download/upload directly the OTP structure without STM32CubeProgrammer; the resulting binary file need to be be treated directly by the user and any means; all the OTP accessible by the secure world are available for provisioning as explained in the #Access operation chapter.

The user need to load U-Boot with dfu-util on an open device to support the TA provisioning in OP-TEE and the DFU stack is automatically started with the U-Boot command: 

stm32prog usb 0

Search the alternate associated to OTP, phase 0xf2: 

dfu-util -l
 dfu-util 0.9

In this example the OTP7 value is 0xdeadbeef at 0x40 offset and the status 40000000 indicate a permanent lock.

2.3.2. Write OTP with download command[edit | edit source]

To update OTP you need to prepare a binary file with the operation to performs, see OTP status description #Data structure for details.

You can update the previous file or start with an empty file, and request programmation with bit31 of the status to update.

For example: 

hexdump otp.bin
0000000 0002 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
0000010 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
0000020 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
*
0000040 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
0000050 4567 0123 0000 C000 DEF0 8ABC C000 0000 
0000060 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
*
0000300 0000 0000 0000 0000                    
0000308

Request write and lock in OTP9 and OTP10 with

  • 0x50: OTP[9] value = 0x01234567
  • 0x54: OTP[9] status = 0xC0000000
  • 0x58: OTP[10] value = 0xABCDEF0
  • 0x5C: OTP[10] status = 0xC0000000

See OTP status for other operations examples.
