Using ST-LINK

ST-LINK is STM's implementation of the | Serial Wire Debug (SWD) protocol. Think of it as JTAG if you're more comfortable with that.

ST-LINK is built into all(?) of STM's Nucleo and Discovery evaluation boards, which can be had for as little as US$10 from Mouser or [element14] (http://newark.com Newark in the Americas, Farnell in Europe).

We have tested with STM32F0DISCOVERY and STM32F4DISCOVERY (both with ST-LINK v2.0) and NUCLEO-F411RE (with ST-LINK v2.1).

On the STM board, remove the pair of ST-LINK jumpers (CN4 on the F4DISCO, CN2 on the F0DISCO and NUCLEO). Then locate the 6-pin SWD header (CN3 on the F0DISCO, CN2 on the F4DISCO, CN4 on the NUCLEO), and connect it to J1 on the Alpha board (top, just left of center).

This photo shows the correct orientation of the cables (both boards oriented so that the logo is right-side up):

NOTE: The STM boards have an unfortunate tendency to short unexpectedly, so I recommend putting them in an enclosure. In this case, I've cut holes in the original packaging.

Install OpenOCD and the debugger

$ apt-get install gdb-arm-none-eabi openocd

Get the debug and flash-target scripts

If you don't already have a cryptech source tree somewhere, get the source distribution, e.g.

$ apt-get source cryptech-alpha

The scripts are in sw/stm32/bin.

Re-flashing the Alpha

To reflash with our binary firmware

$ tar xfz /usr/share/cryptech-alpha-firmware.tar.gz
$ flash-target hsm

What you should see is something like:

** Programming Started **

Debugging the Alpha

This site shows several ways to use various debuggers to debug the firmware in an STM32:

http://fun-tech.se/stm32/OpenOCD/gdb.php

There is a shell script called 'bin/debug' that starts an OpenOCD server and GDB:

$ sw/stm32/bin/debug projects/hsm/hsm
