1. Article purpose[edit | edit source]

The article aims to help rebase an STM32 MPU project on a new ecosystem release by focusing on the impacts of the main changes.

2. Scope of this article[edit | edit source]

This article provides some details for the main changes between STM32 MPU ecosystem release v5.1.0 and new STM32 MPU ecosystem release v6.0.0 . The aim is to help migrate your project.

All Information about the features delivered in the new release is also available in the OpenSTLinux release note.

Important

In case of upgrade from OpenSTLinux ecosystem release v5.0.0, check first the previous release change notification available in the wiki dedicated to the v5.y.z ecosystem releases:

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 v6.1-stm32mp-r2 v6.6-stm32mp-r1 -- arch/arm/boot/dts/stm32mp1*

3.3. System configuration[edit | edit source]

The configuration of optee profile are now centralized via the usage of boot scheme:
- BOOTSCHEME_LABELS += "opteemin" for system_services
- BOOTSCHEME_LABELS += "optee" for secure_and_system_services
