MCU-OTA SBL Project

Note: This project is not under active development now. For actively maintained examples of second stage bootloader based on MCUBoot see the latest release of MCUXpresso SDK.

1. SBL Introduction

  • Secure Bootloader(SBL) project is used for secure OTA.
    The SBL project diagram is as below.

    The SBL project architecture is as below.

  • Toolchains supported by this project

    • Windows host
      (1) MDK5 v5.30
      (2) arm-none-eabi-gcc
      (3) IAR v8.50
    • Linux host
      arm-none-eabi-gcc

  • Platforms supported by this project

    1. i.MXRTxxxx
    2. i.MXRTxxx
    3. LPC

  • Other host system requirements

    1. Git

2. Quick Start

Use i.MXRT1170 platform as an example

-- Note --
All platforms in target directory are decoupled. So if you only focus on one platform, after clone the whole sbl project, you can delete other platforms in target directory directly.

2.1 Linux Host

  1. Install SCons.
    Ubuntu, Debian: $ sudo apt-get install scons
    RPM-based (Red Hat, SUSE, Fedora ...): $ sudo yum install scons
  2. Install the gcc toolchain like: gcc-arm-none-eabi-9-2019-q4-major
  3. Clone this project.
    $ git clone https://github.com/NXPmicro/sbl.git
  4. Enter the evkmimxrt1170 directory.
    $ cd target/evkmimxrt1170/
  5. Config the evkmimxrt1170 project.
    $ scons --menuconfig
  6. Set 'EXEC_PATH' as gcc toolchain install path for CROSS_TOOL == 'gcc' in sblprofile.py.
    Below is an example:
    EXEC_PATH = r'/opt/share/toolchain/gcc-arm-none-eabi-9-2019-q4-major/bin'
    Alternatively, 'SBL_EXEC_PATH' can be added into Linux environment variable to cover the 'EXEC_PATH'.
  7. Build the image with gcc toolchain.
    $ scons
    then sbl.bin image is built in sbl/target/evkmimxrt1170/build directory.
  8. Download the image.
    Use DapLink drag-n-drop or other tools to download image.

2.2 Windows Host

  1. Clone this project.
    git clone https://github.com/NXPmicro/sbl.git
  2. Enter the directory sbl/target/evkmimxrt1170.
  3. Double click the batch file env.bat.
  4. Config the evkmimxrt1170 project.
    scons --menuconfig
  5. Build and download the image.
    • with gcc toolchain
      (1) Obtain gcc toolchain from ARM or MinGW website and install to the Windows host.
      (2) Set 'EXEC_PATH' as gcc toolchain install path for CROSS_TOOL == 'gcc' in sblprofile.py.
      Below is an example:
      EXEC_PATH = r'C:\Program Files (x86)\GNU Arm Embedded Toolchain\9 2020-q2-update\bin'
      Alternatively, 'SBL_EXEC_PATH' can be added into Windows environment variable to cover the 'EXEC_PATH'.
      (3) Build the image.
      scons
      (4) Download the image.
      Use DapLink drag-n-drop or other tools to download image.
    • with IAR IDE
      (1) Create IAR project.
      scons --ide=iar
      (2) Enter the directory sbl/target/evkmimxrt1170/iar.
      (3) Double-click the IAR project file sbl.eww.
      (4) Click the "Make" button to build.
      (5) Click the "Download" button to download.
    • with KEIL IDE
      (1) Create keil project.
      scons --ide=mdk5
      (2) Enter the directory sbl/target/evkmimxrt1170/mdk.
      (3) Double-click the keil project file sbl.uvprojx.
      (4) Click the "Build" button to build.
      (5) Click the "Download" button to download.
