# The Rust Code of Conduct
## Conduct
**Contact**: [Resources team][team]
* We are committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for all, regardless of level of experience, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, personal appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, age, religion, nationality, or other similar characteristic.
* On IRC, please avoid using overtly sexual nicknames or other nicknames that might detract from a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for all.
* Please be kind and courteous. There's no need to be mean or rude.
* Respect that people have differences of opinion and that every design or implementation choice carries a trade-off and numerous costs. There is seldom a right answer.
* Please keep unstructured critique to a minimum. If you have solid ideas you want to experiment with, make a fork and see how it works.
* We will exclude you from interaction if you insult, demean or harass anyone. That is not welcome behavior. We interpret the term "harassment" as including the definition in the [Citizen Code of Conduct](http://citizencodeofconduct.org/); if you have any lack of clarity about what might be included in that concept, please read their definition. In particular, we don't tolerate behavior that excludes people in socially marginalized groups.
* Private harassment is also unacceptable. No matter who you are, if you feel you have been or are being harassed or made uncomfortable by a community member, please contact one of the channel ops or any of the [Resources team][team] immediately. Whether you're a regular contributor or a newcomer, we care about making this community a safe place for you and we've got your back.
* Likewise any spamming, trolling, flaming, baiting or other attention-stealing behavior is not welcome.
## Moderation
These are the policies for upholding our community's standards of conduct.
1. Remarks that violate the Rust standards of conduct, including hateful, hurtful, oppressive, or exclusionary remarks, are not allowed. (Cursing is allowed, but never targeting another user, and never in a hateful manner.)
2. Remarks that moderators find inappropriate, whether listed in the code of conduct or not, are also not allowed.
3. Moderators will first respond to such remarks with a warning.
4. If the warning is unheeded, the user will be "kicked," i.e., kicked out of the communication channel to cool off.
5. If the user comes back and continues to make trouble, they will be banned, i.e., indefinitely excluded.
6. Moderators may choose at their discretion to un-ban the user if it was a first offense and they offer the offended party a genuine apology.
7. If a moderator bans someone and you think it was unjustified, please take it up with that moderator, or with a different moderator, **in private**. Complaints about bans in-channel are not allowed.
8. Moderators are held to a higher standard than other community members. If a moderator creates an inappropriate situation, they should expect less leeway than others.
In the Rust community we strive to go the extra step to look out for each other. Don't just aim to be technically unimpeachable, try to be your best self. In particular, avoid flirting with offensive or sensitive issues, particularly if they're off-topic; this all too often leads to unnecessary fights, hurt feelings, and damaged trust; worse, it can drive people away from the community entirely.
And if someone takes issue with something you said or did, resist the urge to be defensive. Just stop doing what it was they complained about and apologize. Even if you feel you were misinterpreted or unfairly accused, chances are good there was something you could've communicated better — remember that it's your responsibility to make your fellow Rustaceans comfortable. Everyone wants to get along and we are all here first and foremost because we want to talk about cool technology. You will find that people will be eager to assume good intent and forgive as long as you earn their trust.
The enforcement policies listed above apply to all official embedded WG venues; including official IRC channels (#rust-embedded); GitHub repositories under rust-embedded; and all forums under rust-embedded.org (forum.rust-embedded.org).
*Adapted from the [Node.js Policy on Trolling](http://blog.izs.me/post/30036893703/policy-on-trolling) as well as the [Contributor Covenant v1.3.0](https://www.contributor-covenant.org/version/1/3/0/).*

of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain
separable from, or merely link (or bind by name) to the interfaces of,
the Work and Derivative Works thereof.
"Contribution" shall mean any work of authorship, including
the original version of the Work and any modifications or additions
to that Work or Derivative Works thereof, that is intentionally
submitted to Licensor for inclusion in the Work by the copyright owner
or by an individual or Legal Entity authorized to submit on behalf of
the copyright owner. For the purposes of this definition, "submitted"
means any form of electronic, verbal, or written communication sent

on behalf of whom a Contribution has been received by Licensor and
subsequently incorporated within the Work.
2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,
publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the
Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.
3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
(except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made,
use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,
where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable
by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
as of the date such litigation is filed.
4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
meet the following conditions:
(a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
(b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
stating that You changed the files; and
(c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
the Derivative Works; and
(d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
as modifying the License.
You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
the conditions stated in this License.
5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

=======================================================================
Creative Commons Corporation ("Creative Commons") is not a law firm and
does not provide legal services or legal advice. Distribution of
Creative Commons public licenses does not create a lawyer-client or
other relationship. Creative Commons makes its licenses and related
information available on an "as-is" basis. Creative Commons gives no
warranties regarding its licenses, any material licensed under their
terms and conditions, or any related information. Creative Commons
disclaims all liability for damages resulting from their use to the
fullest extent possible.
Using Creative Commons Public Licenses
Creative Commons public licenses provide a standard set of terms and
conditions that creators and other rights holders may use to share
original works of authorship and other material subject to copyright
and certain other rights specified in the public license below. The
following considerations are for informational purposes only, are not
exhaustive, and do not form part of our licenses.
Considerations for licensors: Our public licenses are
intended for use by those authorized to give the public
permission to use material in ways otherwise restricted by
copyright and certain other rights. Our licenses are
irrevocable. Licensors should read and understand the terms
and conditions of the license they choose before applying it.
Licensors should also secure all rights necessary before
applying our licenses so that the public can reuse the
material as expected. Licensors should clearly mark any
material not subject to the license. This includes other CC-
licensed material, or material used under an exception or
limitation to copyright. More considerations for licensors:
wiki.creativecommons.org/Considerations_for_licensors
Considerations for the public: By using one of our public
licenses, a licensor grants the public permission to use the
licensed material under specified terms and conditions. If
the licensor's permission is not necessary for any reason--for
example, because of any applicable exception or limitation to
copyright--then that use is not regulated by the license. Our
licenses grant only permissions under copyright and certain
other rights that a licensor has authority to grant. Use of
the licensed material may still be restricted for other
reasons, including because others have copyright or other
rights in the material. A licensor may make special requests,
such as asking that all changes be marked or described.
Although not required by our licenses, you are encouraged to
respect those requests where reasonable. More_considerations
for the public:

=======================================================================
Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License
By exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree
to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons
Attribution 4.0 International Public License ("Public License"). To the
extent this Public License may be interpreted as a contract, You are
granted the Licensed Rights in consideration of Your acceptance of
these terms and conditions, and the Licensor grants You such rights in
consideration of benefits the Licensor receives from making the
Licensed Material available under these terms and conditions.
Section 1 -- Definitions.
a. Adapted Material means material subject to Copyright and Similar
Rights that is derived from or based upon the Licensed Material
and in which the Licensed Material is translated, altered,
arranged, transformed, or otherwise modified in a manner requiring
permission under the Copyright and Similar Rights held by the
Licensor. For purposes of this Public License, where the Licensed
Material is a musical work, performance, or sound recording,
Adapted Material is always produced where the Licensed Material is
synched in timed relation with a moving image.
b. Adapter's License means the license You apply to Your Copyright
and Similar Rights in Your contributions to Adapted Material in
accordance with the terms and conditions of this Public License.
c. Copyright and Similar Rights means copyright and/or similar rights
closely related to copyright including, without limitation,
performance, broadcast, sound recording, and Sui Generis Database
Rights, without regard to how the rights are labeled or
categorized. For purposes of this Public License, the rights
specified in Section 2(b)(1)-(2) are not Copyright and Similar
Rights.
d. Effective Technological Measures means those measures that, in the
absence of proper authority, may not be circumvented under laws
fulfilling obligations under Article 11 of the WIPO Copyright
Treaty adopted on December 20, 1996, and/or similar international
agreements.
e. Exceptions and Limitations means fair use, fair dealing, and/or
any other exception or limitation to Copyright and Similar Rights
that applies to Your use of the Licensed Material.
f. Licensed Material means the artistic or literary work, database,
or other material to which the Licensor applied this Public
License.
g. Licensed Rights means the rights granted to You subject to the
terms and conditions of this Public License, which are limited to
all Copyright and Similar Rights that apply to Your use of the
Licensed Material and that the Licensor has authority to license.
h. Licensor means the individual(s) or entity(ies) granting rights
under this Public License.
i. Share means to provide material to the public by any means or
process that requires permission under the Licensed Rights, such
as reproduction, public display, public performance, distribution,
dissemination, communication, or importation, and to make material
available to the public including in ways that members of the
public may access the material from a place and at a time
individually chosen by them.
j. Sui Generis Database Rights means rights other than copyright
resulting from Directive 96/9/EC of the European Parliament and of
the Council of 11 March 1996 on the legal protection of databases,
as amended and/or succeeded, as well as other essentially
equivalent rights anywhere in the world.
k. You means the individual or entity exercising the Licensed Rights
under this Public License. Your has a corresponding meaning.
Section 2 -- Scope.
a. License grant.
1. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Public License,
the Licensor hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free,
non-sublicensable, non-exclusive, irrevocable license to
exercise the Licensed Rights in the Licensed Material to:
a. reproduce and Share the Licensed Material, in whole or
in part; and
b. produce, reproduce, and Share Adapted Material.
2. Exceptions and Limitations. For the avoidance of doubt, where
Exceptions and Limitations apply to Your use, this Public
License does not apply, and You do not need to comply with
its terms and conditions.
3. Term. The term of this Public License is specified in Section
6(a).
4. Media and formats; technical modifications allowed. The
Licensor authorizes You to exercise the Licensed Rights in
all media and formats whether now known or hereafter created,
and to make technical modifications necessary to do so. The
Licensor waives and/or agrees not to assert any right or
authority to forbid You from making technical modifications
necessary to exercise the Licensed Rights, including
technical modifications necessary to circumvent Effective
Technological Measures. For purposes of this Public License,
simply making modifications authorized by this Section 2(a)
(4) never produces Adapted Material.
5. Downstream recipients.
a. Offer from the Licensor -- Licensed Material. Every
recipient of the Licensed Material automatically
receives an offer from the Licensor to exercise the
Licensed Rights under the terms and conditions of this
Public License.
b. No downstream restrictions. You may not offer or impose
any additional or different terms or conditions on, or
apply any Effective Technological Measures to, the
Licensed Material if doing so restricts exercise of the
Licensed Rights by any recipient of the Licensed
Material.
6. No endorsement. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or
may be construed as permission to assert or imply that You
are, or that Your use of the Licensed Material is, connected
with, or sponsored, endorsed, or granted official status by,
the Licensor or others designated to receive attribution as
provided in Section 3(a)(1)(A)(i).
b. Other rights.
1. Moral rights, such as the right of integrity, are not
licensed under this Public License, nor are publicity,
privacy, and/or other similar personality rights; however, to
the extent possible, the Licensor waives and/or agrees not to
assert any such rights held by the Licensor to the limited
extent necessary to allow You to exercise the Licensed
Rights, but not otherwise.
2. Patent and trademark rights are not licensed under this
Public License.
3. To the extent possible, the Licensor waives any right to
collect royalties from You for the exercise of the Licensed
Rights, whether directly or through a collecting society
under any voluntary or waivable statutory or compulsory
licensing scheme. In all other cases the Licensor expressly
reserves any right to collect such royalties.
Section 3 -- License Conditions.
Your exercise of the Licensed Rights is expressly made subject to the
following conditions.
a. Attribution.
1. If You Share the Licensed Material (including in modified
form), You must:
a. retain the following if it is supplied by the Licensor
with the Licensed Material:
i. identification of the creator(s) of the Licensed
Material and any others designated to receive
attribution, in any reasonable manner requested by
the Licensor (including by pseudonym if
designated);
ii. a copyright notice;
iii. a notice that refers to this Public License;
iv. a notice that refers to the disclaimer of
warranties;
v. a URI or hyperlink to the Licensed Material to the
extent reasonably practicable;
b. indicate if You modified the Licensed Material and
retain an indication of any previous modifications; and
c. indicate the Licensed Material is licensed under this
Public License, and include the text of, or the URI or
hyperlink to, this Public License.
2. You may satisfy the conditions in Section 3(a)(1) in any
reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and context in
which You Share the Licensed Material. For example, it may be
reasonable to satisfy the conditions by providing a URI or
hyperlink to a resource that includes the required
information.
3. If requested by the Licensor, You must remove any of the
information required by Section 3(a)(1)(A) to the extent
reasonably practicable.
4. If You Share Adapted Material You produce, the Adapter's
License You apply must not prevent recipients of the Adapted

# Background
## What's a microcontroller?
A microcontroller is a *system* on a chip. Whereas your computer is made up of several discrete
components: a processor, RAM sticks, a hard drive, an ethernet port, etc.; a microcontroller
has all those components built into a single "chip" or package. This makes it possible to
build systems with a minimal part count.
## What can you do with a microcontroller?
Lots of things! Microcontrollers are the central part of systems known as *embedded* systems.
These systems are everywhere but you don't usually notice them. These systems control the brakes
of your car, wash your clothes, print your documents, keep you warm, keep you cool, optimize the
fuel consumption of your car, etc.
The main trait of these systems is that they operate without user intervention even if they expose a
user interface as a washing machine does; most of their operation is done on their own.
The other common trait of these systems is that they *control* a process. And for that these systems
usually have one or more sensors and one or more actuators. For example, an HVAC system has several
sensors, thermometers, and humidity sensors spread across some areas, and several actuators as well,
heating elements and fans connected to ducts.
## When should I use a microcontroller?
All these applications I've mentioned, you can probably implement with a Raspberry Pi, a computer
that runs Linux. Why should I bother with a microcontroller that operates without an OS? Sounds
like it would be harder to develop a program.
The main reason is cost. A microcontroller is much cheaper than a general-purpose computer. Not only
the microcontroller is cheaper; it also requires many fewer external electrical components to operate.
This makes Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) smaller and cheaper to design and manufacture.
The other big reason is power consumption. A microcontroller consumes orders of magnitude less power
than a full-blown processor. If your application will run on batteries that makes a huge difference.
And last but not least: (hard) *real-time* constraints. Some processes require their controllers to
respond to some events within some time interval (e.g. a quadcopter/drone hit by a wind gust). If this
*deadline* is not met, the process could end in catastrophic failure (e.g. the drone crashes to the
ground). A general-purpose computer running a general-purpose OS has many services running in the
background. This makes it hard to guarantee the execution of a program within tight time constraints.
## When should I *not* use a microcontroller?
Where heavy computations are involved. To keep their power consumption low, microcontrollers have very
limited computational resources available to them. For example, some microcontrollers don't even have
hardware support for floating-point operations. On those devices, performing a simple addition of
single-precision numbers can take hundreds of CPU cycles.
## Why use Rust and not C?
Hopefully, I don't need to convince you here as you are probably familiar with the language
differences between Rust and C. One point I do want to bring up is package management. C lacks an
official, widely accepted package management solution whereas Rust has Cargo. This makes development
*much* easier. And, IMO, easy package management encourages code reuse because libraries can be
easily integrated into an application which is also a good thing as libraries get more "battle testing".
## Why should I not use Rust?
Or why should I prefer C over Rust?
The C ecosystem is way more mature. Off the shelf solution for several problems already exist. If you
need to control a time-sensitive process, you can grab one of the existing commercial Real-Time Operating
Systems (RTOS) out there and solve your problem. There are no commercial, production-grade RTOSes in Rust
yet so you would have to either create one yourself or try one of the ones that are in development.

# Hardware/knowledge requirements
The primary knowledge requirement to read this book is to know *some* Rust. It's
hard for me to quantify *some* but at least I can tell you that you don't need
to fully grok generics but you do need to know how to *use* closures. You also
need to be familiar with the idioms of the [2018 edition], in particular with
the fact that `extern crate` is not necessary in the 2018 edition.
[2018 edition]: https://rust-lang-nursery.github.io/edition-guide/
Due to the nature of embedded programming, it will also be extremely helpful to
understand how binary and hexadecimal representations of values work, as well
as the use of some bitwise operators. For example, it would be useful to
understand how the following program produces its output.
```rust
fn main() {
let a = 0x4000_0000 + 0xa2;
// Use of the bit shift "<<" operation.
let b = 1 << 5;
// {:X} will format values as hexadecimal
println!("{:X}: {:X}", a, b);
}
```
Also, to follow this material you'll need the following hardware:
(Some components are optional but recommended)
- A [STM32F3DISCOVERY] board.
[STM32F3DISCOVERY]: http://www.st.com/en/evaluation-tools/stm32f3discovery.html
(You can purchase this board from "big" [electronics][0] [suppliers][1] or from [e-commerce][2]
[sites][3])
[0]: http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/STMicroelectronics/STM32F3DISCOVERY
[1]: http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/stmicroelectronics/STM32F3DISCOVERY/497-13192-ND
[2]: https://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?SearchText=stm32f3discovery
[3]: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=stm32f3discovery
<p align="center">
<img title="STM32F3DISCOVERY" src="../assets/f3.jpg">
</p>
- OPTIONAL. A **3.3V** USB <-> Serial module. To elaborate: if you have one of
the latest revisions of the discovery board (which is usually the case given
the first revision was released years ago) then you do *not* need this module
because the board includes this functionality on-board. If you have an older
revision of the board then you'll need this module for chapters 10 and 11. For
completeness, we'll include instructions for using a Serial module. The book
will use [this particular model][sparkfun] but you can use any other model as
long as it operates at 3.3V. The CH340G module, which you can buy
from [e-commerce][4] sites works too and it's probably cheaper for you to get.
[sparkfun]: https://www.sparkfun.com/products/9873
[4]: https://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?SearchText=CH340G
<p align="center">
<img title="A 3.3v USB <-> Serial module" src="../assets/serial.jpg">
</p>
- OPTIONAL. A HC-05 Bluetooth module (with headers!). A HC-06 would work too.
(As with other Chinese parts, you pretty much can only find these on [e-commerce][5] [sites][6].
(US) Electronics suppliers don't usually stock these for some reason)
[5]: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=hc-05
[6]: https://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?SearchText=hc-05
<p align="center">
<img title="The HC-05 Bluetooth module" src="../assets/bluetooth.jpg">
</p>
- Two mini-B USB cables. One is required to make the STM32F3DISCOVERY board work. The other is only
required if you have the Serial <-> USB module. Make sure that the cables both
support data transfer as some cables only support charging devices.
<p align="center">
<img title="mini-B USB cable" src="../assets/usb-cable.jpg">
</p>
> **NOTE** These are **not** the USB cables that ship with pretty much every Android phone; those
> are *micro* USB cables. Make sure you have the right thing!
- MOSTLY OPTIONAL. 5 female to female, 4 male to female and 1 Male to Male *jumper* (AKA Dupont)
wires. You'll *very likely* need one female to female to get ITM working. The other wires are only
needed if you'll be using the USB <-> Serial and Bluetooth modules.
(You can get these from electronics [suppliers][7] or from [e-commerce][8] [sites][9])

[9]: https://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?SearchText=dupont+wire
<p align="center">
<img title="Jumper wires" src="../assets/jumper-wires.jpg">
</p>
> **FAQ**: Wait, why do I need this specific hardware?
It makes my life and yours much easier.
The material is much, much more approachable if we don't have to worry about hardware differences.
Trust me on this one.
> **FAQ**: Can I follow this material with a different development board?
Maybe? It depends mainly on two things: your previous experience with microcontrollers and/or
whether there already exists a high level crate, like the [`f3`], for your development board
somewhere.
[`f3`]: https://docs.rs/f3
With a different development board, this text would lose most if not all its beginner friendliness
and "easy to follow"-ness, IMO.
If you have a different development board and you don't consider yourself a total beginner, you are
better off starting with the [quickstart] project template.

# Setting up a development environment
Dealing with microcontrollers involves several tools as we'll be dealing with an architecture
different than your computer's and we'll have to run and debug programs on a "remote" device.
## Documentation
Tooling is not everything though. Without documentation it is pretty much impossible to work with
microcontrollers.
We'll be referring to all these documents throughout this book:
*HEADS UP* All these links point to PDF files and some of them are hundreds of pages long and
several MBs in size.
- [STM32F3DISCOVERY User Manual][um]
- [STM32F303VC Datasheet][ds]
- [STM32F303VC Reference Manual][rm]
- [LSM303DLHC] \*
- [L3GD20] \*
[L3GD20]: https://www.st.com/content/ccc/resource/technical/document/application_note/2c/d9/a7/f8/43/48/48/64/DM00119036.pdf/files/DM00119036.pdf/jcr:content/translations/en.DM00119036.pdf
[LSM303DLHC]: http://www.st.com/resource/en/datasheet/lsm303dlhc.pdf

[rm]: http://www.st.com/resource/en/reference_manual/dm00043574.pdf
[um]: http://www.st.com/resource/en/user_manual/dm00063382.pdf
\* **NOTE**: Newer (from around 2020/09) Discovery boards may have a different e-compass and gyroscope (see the user manual).
As such, much in chapters 14-16 will not work as is.
Checkout the github issues like [this][gh-issue-274].
[gh-issue-274]: https://github.com/rust-embedded/discovery/issues/274
## Tools
We'll use all the tools listed below. Where a minimum version is not specified, any recent version
should work but we have listed the version we have tested.
- Rust 1.31 or a newer toolchain. Chapter [USART](../11-usart/index.html)
requires 1.51 or newer.
- [`itmdump`] >=0.3.1 (`cargo install itm`). Tested versions: 0.3.1.
- OpenOCD >=0.8. Tested versions: v0.9.0 and v0.10.0
- `arm-none-eabi-gdb`. Version 7.12 or newer highly recommended. Tested versions: 7.10, 7.11,
7.12 and 8.1
- [`cargo-binutils`]. Version 0.1.4 or newer.
[`cargo-binutils`]: https://github.com/rust-embedded/cargo-binutils
- `minicom` on Linux and macOS. Tested version: 2.7. Readers report that `picocom` also works but
we'll use `minicom` in this text.
- `PuTTY` on Windows.
[`itmdump`]: https://crates.io/crates/itm
If your computer has Bluetooth functionality and you have the Bluetooth module, you can additionally
install these tools to play with the Bluetooth module. All these are optional:
- Linux, only if you don't have a Bluetooth manager application like Blueman.
- `bluez`
- `hcitool`
- `rfcomm`
- `rfkill`
macOS / OSX / Windows users only need the default bluetooth manager that ships with their OS.
Next, follow OS-agnostic installation instructions for a few of the tools:
### `rustc` & Cargo
Install rustup by following the instructions at [https://rustup.rs](https://rustup.rs).
If you already have rustup installed double check that you are on the stable
channel and your stable toolchain is up to date. `rustc -V` should return a date
newer than the one shown below:
``` console
$ rustc -V
rustc 1.31.0 (abe02cefd 2018-12-04)
```
### `itmdump`
``` console
cargo install itm
```
Verify the version is >=0.3.1
```
$ itmdump -V
itmdump 0.3.1
```
### `cargo-binutils`
Install `llvm-tools`
``` console
rustup component add llvm-tools
```
Install `cargo-binutils`
```
cargo install cargo-binutils
```
#### Verify tools are installed
Run the following commands at your terminal
``` console
cargo new test-size
```
```
cd test-size
```
```
cargo run
```
```
cargo size -- --version
```
The results should be something like:
```
~
$ cargo new test-size
Created binary (application) `test-size` package
~
$ cd test-size
~/test-size (main)
$ cargo run
Compiling test-size v0.1.0 (~/test-size)
Finished dev [unoptimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 0.26s
Running `target/debug/test-size`
Hello, world!
~/test-size (main)
$ cargo size -- --version
Finished dev [unoptimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 0.00s
LLVM (http://llvm.org/):
LLVM version 11.0.0-rust-1.50.0-stable
Optimized build.
Default target: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
Host CPU: znver2
```
### OS specific instructions
Now follow the instructions specific to the OS you are using:
- [Linux](linux.md)
- [Windows](windows.md)
- [macOS](macos.md)

# Linux
Here are the installation commands for a few Linux distributions.
## REQUIRED packages
### Ubuntu 18.04 or newer / Debian stretch or newer
> **NOTE** `gdb-multiarch` is the GDB command you'll use to debug your ARM
> Cortex-M programs
<!-- Debian stretch -->
<!-- GDB 7.12 -->
<!-- OpenOCD 0.9.0 -->
<!-- Ubuntu 18.04 -->
<!-- GDB 8.1 -->
<!-- OpenOCD 0.10.0 -->
``` console
sudo apt-get install \
gdb-multiarch \
minicom \
openocd
```
### Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04
> **NOTE** `arm-none-eabi-gdb` is the GDB command you'll use to debug your ARM
> Cortex-M programs
<!-- Ubuntu 14.04 -->
<!-- GDB 7.6 -->
<!-- OpenOCD 0.7.0 -->
``` console
sudo apt-get install \
gdb-arm-none-eabi \
minicom \
openocd
```
### Fedora 23 or newer
``` console
sudo dnf install \
minicom \
openocd \
gdb
```
### Arch Linux
> **NOTE** `arm-none-eabi-gdb` is the GDB command you'll use to debug your ARM
> Cortex-M programs
``` console
sudo pacman -S \
arm-none-eabi-gdb \
minicom \
openocd
```
### Other distros
> **NOTE** `arm-none-eabi-gdb` is the GDB command you'll use to debug your ARM
> Cortex-M programs
For distros that don't have packages for [ARM's pre-built
toolchain](https://developer.arm.com/open-source/gnu-toolchain/gnu-rm/downloads),
download the "Linux 64-bit" file and put its `bin` directory on your path.
Here's one way to do it:
``` console
mkdir -p ~/local && cd ~/local
```
``` console
tar xjf /path/to/downloaded/file/gcc-arm-none-eabi-10-2020-q4-major-x86_64-linux.tar.bz2
```
Then, use your editor of choice to append to your `PATH` in the appropriate
shell init file (e.g. `~/.zshrc` or `~/.bashrc`):
```
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/local/gcc-arm-none-eabi-10-2020-q4-major-x86_64-linux/bin
```
## Optional packages
### Ubuntu / Debian
``` console
sudo apt-get install \
bluez \
rfkill
```
### Fedora
``` console
sudo dnf install \
bluez \
rfkill
```
### Arch Linux
``` console
sudo pacman -S \
bluez \
bluez-utils \
rfkill
```
## udev rules
These rules let you use USB devices like the F3 and the Serial module without root privilege, i.e.
`sudo`.
Create `99-openocd.rules` in `/etc/udev/rules.d` using the `idVendor` and `idProduct`
from the `lsusb` output.
For example, connect the STM32F3DISCOVERY to your computer using a USB cable.
Be sure to connect the cable to the "USB ST-LINK" port, the USB port in the
center of the edge of the board.
Execute `lsusb`:
``` console
lsusb | grep ST-LINK
```
It should result in something like:
```
$ lsusb | grep ST-LINK
Bus 003 Device 003: ID 0483:374b STMicroelectronics ST-LINK/V2.1
```
So the `idVendor` is `0483` and `idProduct` is `374b`.
### Create `/etc/udev/rules.d/99-openocd.rules`:
``` console
sudo vi /etc/udev/rules.d/99-openocd.rules
```
With the contents:
``` text
# STM32F3DISCOVERY - ST-LINK/V2.1
ATTRS{idVendor}=="0483", ATTRS{idProduct}=="374b", MODE:="0666"
```
#### For older devices with OPTIONAL USB <-> FT232 based Serial Module
Create `/etc/udev/rules.d/99-ftdi.rules`:
``` console
sudo vi /etc/udev/rules.d/99-openocd.rules
```
With the contents:
``` text
# FT232 - USB <-> Serial Converter

# Verify the installation
Let's verify that all the tools were installed correctly.
## Linux only
### Verify permissions
Connect the STM32F3DISCOVERY to your computer using an USB cable. Be sure to connect the cable to the "USB ST-LINK"
port, the USB port in the center of the edge of the board.
The STM32F3DISCOVERY should now appear as a USB device (file) in `/dev/bus/usb`. Let's find out how it got
enumerated:
``` console
lsusb | grep -i stm
```
This should result in:
``` console
$ lsusb | grep -i stm
Bus 003 Device 004: ID 0483:374b STMicroelectronics ST-LINK/V2.1
$ # ^^^ ^^^
```
In my case, the STM32F3DISCOVERY got connected to the bus #3 and got enumerated as the device #4. This means the
file `/dev/bus/usb/003/004` *is* the STM32F3DISCOVERY. Let's check its permissions:
``` console
$ ls -la /dev/bus/usb/003/004
crw-rw-rw-+ 1 root root 189, 259 Feb 28 13:32 /dev/bus/usb/003/00
```
The permissions should be `crw-rw-rw-`. If it's not ... then check your [udev
rules] and try re-loading them with:
[udev rules]: linux.md#udev-rules
``` console
sudo udevadm control --reload-rules
```
#### For older devices with OPTIONAL USB <-> FT232 based Serial Module
Unplug the STM32F3DISCOVERY and plug the Serial module. Now, figure out what's its associated file:
``` console
$ lsusb | grep -i ft232
Bus 003 Device 005: ID 0403:6001 Future Technology Devices International, Ltd FT232 Serial (UART) IC
```
In my case, it's the `/dev/bus/usb/003/005`. Now, check its permissions:
``` console
$ ls -l /dev/bus/usb/003/005
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 189, 21 Sep 13 00:00 /dev/bus/usb/003/005
```
As before, the permissions should be `crw-rw-rw-`.
## Verify OpenOCD connection
Connect the STM32F3DISCOVERY using the USB cable to the USB port in the
center of edge of the board, the one that's labeled "USB ST-LINK".
Two *red* LEDs should turn on right after connecting the USB cable to the board.
> **IMPORTANT** There is more than one hardware revision of the STM32F3DISCOVERY board. For older
> revisions, you'll need to change the "interface" argument to `-f interface/stlink-v2.cfg` (note:
> no `-1` at the end). Alternatively, older revisions can use `-f board/stm32f3discovery.cfg`
> instead of `-f interface/stlink-v2-1.cfg -f target/stm32f3x.cfg`.
> **NOTE** OpenOCD v0.11.0 has deprecated `interface/stlink-v2.cfg` in favor of
> `interface/stlink.cfg` which supports ST-LINK/V1, ST-LINK/V2, ST-LINK/V2-1, and
> ST-LINK/V3.
### *Nix
> **FYI:** The `interface` directory is typically located in `/usr/share/openocd/scripts/`,
> which is the default location OpenOCD expects these files. If you've installed them
> somewhere else use the `-s /path/to/scripts/` option to specify your install directory.
``` console
openocd -f interface/stlink-v2-1.cfg -f target/stm32f3x.cfg
```
or
``` console
openocd -f interface/stlink.cfg -f target/stm32f3x.cfg
```
### Windows
Below the references to `C:\OpenOCD` is the directory where OpenOCD is installed.
``` console
openocd -s C:\OpenOCD\share\scripts -f interface/stlink-v2-1.cfg -f target/stm32f3x.cfg
```
> **NOTE** cygwin users have reported problems with the -s flag. If you run into
> that problem you can add `C:\OpenOCD\share\scripts\` directory to the parameters.
cygwin users:
``` console
openocd -f C:\OpenOCD\share\scripts\interface\stlink-v2-1.cfg -f C:\OpenOCD\share\scripts\target\stm32f3x.cfg
```
### All
OpenOCD is a service which forwards debug information from the ITM channel
to a file, `itm.txt`, as such it runs forever and does **not** return to the
terminal prompt.
The initial output of OpenOCD is something like:
``` console
Open On-Chip Debugger 0.10.0
Licensed under GNU GPL v2
For bug reports, read
http://openocd.org/doc/doxygen/bugs.html

```
(If you don't ... then check the [general troubleshooting] instructions.)
[general troubleshooting]: ../appendix/1-general-troubleshooting/index.html
Also, one of the red LEDs, the one closest to the USB port, should start oscillating between red
light and green light.
That's it! It works. You can now use `Ctrl-c` to stop OpenOCD or close/kill the terminal.

# Windows
## `arm-none-eabi-gdb`
ARM provides `.exe` installers for Windows. Grab one from [here][gcc], and follow the instructions.
Just before the installation process finishes tick/select the "Add path to environment variable"
option. Then verify that the tools are in your `%PATH%`:
Verify gcc is installed:
``` console
arm-none-eabi-gcc -v
```
The results should be something like:
```
(..)
$ arm-none-eabi-gcc -v
gcc version 5.4.1 20160919 (release) (..)
```
[gcc]: https://developer.arm.com/open-source/gnu-toolchain/gnu-rm/downloads
## OpenOCD
There's no official binary release of OpenOCD for Windows but there are unofficial releases
available [here][openocd]. Grab the 0.10.x zipfile and extract it somewhere in your drive (I
recommend `C:\OpenOCD` but with the drive letter that makes sense to you) then update your `%PATH%`
environment variable to include the following path: `C:\OpenOCD\bin` (or the path that you used
before).
[openocd]: https://github.com/xpack-dev-tools/openocd-xpack/releases
Verify OpenOCD is installed and in your `%PATH%` with:
``` console
openocd -v
```
The results should be something like:
``` console
$ openocd -v
Open On-Chip Debugger 0.10.0
(..)
```
## PuTTY
Download the latest `putty.exe` from [this site] and place it somewhere in your `%PATH%`.
[this site]: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html
## ST-LINK USB driver
You'll also need to install [this USB driver] or OpenOCD won't work. Follow the installer
instructions and make sure you install the right (32-bit or 64-bit) version of the driver.

# Meet your hardware
Let's get familiar with the hardware we'll be working with.
## STM32F3DISCOVERY (the "F3")
<p align="center">
<img title="F3" src="../assets/f3.jpg">
</p>
We'll refer to this board as "F3" throughout this book. Here are some of the
many components on the board:
- A [microcontroller].
- A number of LEDs, including the eight aligned in a "compass" formation.
- Two buttons.
- Two USB ports.
- An [accelerometer].
- A [magnetometer].
- A [gyroscope].
[microcontroller]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microcontroller
[accelerometer]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerometer
[magnetometer]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetometer
[gyroscope]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyroscope
Of these components, the most important is the microcontroller (sometimes
shortened to "MCU" for "microcontroller unit"), which is the large black square
sitting in the center of your board. The MCU is what runs your code. You might
sometimes read about "programming a board", when in reality what we are doing
is programming the MCU that is installed on the board.
## STM32F303VCT6 (the "STM32F3")
Since the MCU is so important, let's take a closer look at the one sitting on our board.
Our MCU is surrounded by 100 tiny metal **pins**. These pins are connected to
**traces**, the little "roads" that act as the wires connecting components
together on the board. The MCU can dynamically alter the electrical properties
of the pins. This works similar to a light switch altering how electrical
current flows through a circuit. By enabling or disabling electrical current to
flow through a specific pin, an LED attached to that pin (via the traces) can
be turned on and off.
Each manufacturer uses a different part numbering scheme, but many will allow
you to determine information about a component simply by looking at the part
number. Looking at our MCU's part number (`STM32F303VCT6`), the `ST` at the
front hints to us that this is a part manufactured by [ST Microelectronics].
Searching through [ST's marketing materials] we can also learn the following:
[ST Microelectronics]: https://st.com/
[ST's marketing materials]: https://www.st.com/en/microcontrollers-microprocessors/stm32-mainstream-mcus.html
- The `M32` represents that this is an Arm®-based 32-bit microcontroller.
- The `F3` represents that the MCU is from ST's "STM32F3" series. This is a
series of MCUs based on the Cortex®-M4 processor design.
- The remainder of the part number goes into more details about things like
extra features and RAM size, which at this point we're less concerned about.
> ### Arm? Cortex-M4?
>
> If our chip is manufactured by ST, then who is Arm? And if our chip is the
> STM32F3, what is the Cortex-M4?
>
> You might be surprised to hear that while "Arm-based" chips are quite
> popular, the company behind the "Arm" trademark ([Arm Holdings][]) doesn't
> actually manufacture chips for purchase. Instead, their primary business
> model is to just *design* parts of chips. They will then license those designs to
> manufacturers, who will in turn implement the designs (perhaps with some of
> their own tweaks) in the form of physical hardware that can then be sold.
> Arm's strategy here is different from companies like Intel, which both
> designs *and* manufactures their chips.
>
> Arm licenses a bunch of different designs. Their "Cortex-M" family of designs
> are mainly used as the core in microcontrollers. For example, the Cortex-M0
> is designed for low cost and low power usage. The Cortex-M7 is higher cost,
> but with more features and performance. The core of our STM32F3 is based on
> the Cortex-M4, which is in the middle: more features and performance than the
> Cortex-M0, but less expensive than the Cortex-M7.
>
> Luckily, you don't need to know too much about different types of processors
> or Cortex designs for the sake of this book. However, you are hopefully now a
> bit more knowledgeable about the terminology of your device. While you are
> working specifically with an STM32F3, you might find yourself reading
> documentation and using tools for Cortex-M-based chips, as the STM32F3 is
> based on a Cortex-M design.

## The Serial module
<p align="center">
<img title="Serial module" src="../assets/serial.jpg">
</p>
If you have an older revision of the discovery board, you can use this module to
exchange data between the microcontroller in the F3 and your computer. This module
will be connected to your computer using an USB cable. I won't say more at this
point.
If you have a newer release of the board then you don't need this module. The
ST-LINK will double as a USB<->serial converter connected to the microcontroller USART1 at pins PC4 and PC5.
## The Bluetooth module
<p align="center">
<img title="The HC-05 Bluetooth module" src="../assets/bluetooth.jpg">
</p>
This module has the exact same purpose as the serial module but it sends the data over Bluetooth
instead of over USB.

# LED roulette
Alright, let's start by building the following application:
<p align="center">
<img src="https://i.imgur.com/0k1r2Lc.gif">
</p>
I'm going to give you a high level API to implement this app but don't worry we'll do low level
stuff later on. The main goal of this chapter is to get familiar with the *flashing* and debugging
process.
Throughout this text we'll be using the starter code that's in the [discovery] repository. Make sure
you always have the latest version of the master branch because this website tracks that branch.
The starter code is in the `src` directory of that repository. Inside that directory there are more
directories named after each chapter of this book. Most of those directories are starter Cargo
projects.
[discovery]: https://github.com/rust-embedded/discovery
Now, jump into the `src/05-led-roulette` directory. Check the `src/main.rs` file:
``` rust
{{#include src/main.rs}}
```
Microcontroller programs are different from standard programs in two aspects: `#![no_std]` and
`#![no_main]`.
The `no_std` attribute says that this program won't use the `std` crate, which assumes an underlying
OS; the program will instead use the `core` crate, a subset of `std` that can run on bare metal
systems (i.e., systems without OS abstractions like files and sockets).
The `no_main` attribute says that this program won't use the standard `main` interface, which is
tailored for command line applications that receive arguments. Instead of the standard `main` we'll
use the `entry` attribute from the [`cortex-m-rt`] crate to define a custom entry point. In this
program we have named the entry point "main", but any other name could have been used. The entry
point function must have the signature `fn() -> !`; this type indicates that the function can't
return this means that the program never terminates.
[`cortex-m-rt`]: https://crates.io/crates/cortex-m-rt
If you are a careful observer, you'll also notice there is a `.cargo` directory in the Cargo project
as well. This directory contains a Cargo configuration file (`.cargo/config`) that tweaks the
linking process to tailor the memory layout of the program to the requirements of the target device.
This modified linking process is a requirement of the `cortex-m-rt` crate. You'll also be making
further tweaks to `.cargo/config` in future sections to make building and debugging easier.
Alright, let's start by building this program.

# Build it
The first step is to build our "binary" crate. Because the microcontroller has a different
architecture than your computer we'll have to cross compile. Cross compiling in Rust land is as simple
as passing an extra `--target` flag to `rustc`or Cargo. The complicated part is figuring out the
argument of that flag: the *name* of the target.
The microcontroller in the F3 has a Cortex-M4F processor in it. `rustc` knows how to cross compile
to the Cortex-M architecture and provides 4 different targets that cover the different processor
families within that architecture:
- `thumbv6m-none-eabi`, for the Cortex-M0 and Cortex-M1 processors
- `thumbv7m-none-eabi`, for the Cortex-M3 processor
- `thumbv7em-none-eabi`, for the Cortex-M4 and Cortex-M7 processors
- `thumbv7em-none-eabihf`, for the Cortex-M4**F** and Cortex-M7**F** processors
For the F3, we'll use the `thumbv7em-none-eabihf` target. Before cross compiling you have to
download a pre-compiled version of the standard library (a reduced version of it actually) for your
target. That's done using `rustup`:
``` console
rustup target add thumbv7em-none-eabihf
```
You only need to do the above step once; `rustup` will re-install a new standard library
(`rust-std` component) whenever you update your toolchain.
With the `rust-std` component in place you can now cross compile the program using Cargo.
> **NOTE** Make sure you are in the `src/05-led-roulette` directory
> and run `cargo build` command below to create the executable:
``` console
cargo build --target thumbv7em-none-eabihf

OK, now we have produced an executable. This executable won't blink any LEDs, it's just a simplified version that we will build upon later in the chapter. As a sanity check, let's verify that the produced executable is actually an ARM binary:
``` console
cargo readobj --target thumbv7em-none-eabihf --bin led-roulette -- --file-header
```
The `cargo readobj ..` above is equivalent to
`readelf -h target/thumbv7em-none-eabihf/debug/led-roulette`
and should produce something similar to:
``` console
$ cargo readobj --target thumbv7em-none-eabihf --bin led-roulette -- --file-header

# Debug it
We are already inside a debugging session so let's debug our program.
After the `load` command, our program is stopped at its *entry point*. This is indicated by the
"Start address 0x8000XXX" part of GDB's output. The entry point is the part of a program that a
processor / CPU will execute first.
The starter project I've provided to you has some extra code that runs *before* the `main` function.
At this time, we are not interested in that "pre-main" part so let's skip right to the beginning of
the `main` function. We'll do that using a breakpoint. Issue `break main` at the `(gdb)` prompt:
> **NOTE** For these GDB commands I generally won't provide a copyable code block
> as these are short and it's faster just to type them yourself. In addition most
> can be shortened. For instance `b` for `break` or `s` for `step`, see [GDB Quick Reference]
> for more info or use Google to find your others. In addition, you can use tab completion
> by typing the first few letters than one tab to complete or two tabs to
> see all possible commands.
>
>> Finally, `help xxxx` where xxxx is the command will provide short names and other info:
>> ```
>> (gdb) help s
>> step, s
>> Step program until it reaches a different source line.
>> Usage: step [N]
>> Argument N means step N times (or till program stops for another reason).
>> ```
[GDB Quick Reference]: https://users.ece.utexas.edu/~adnan/gdb-refcard.pdf
```
(gdb) break main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x80001f0: file src/05-led-roulette/src/main.rs, line 7.
Note: automatically using hardware breakpoints for read-only addresses.
```
Next issue a `continue` command:
```
(gdb) continue
Continuing.
Breakpoint 1, led_roulette::__cortex_m_rt_main_trampoline () at src/05-led-roulette/src/main.rs:7
7 #[entry]
```
Breakpoints can be used to stop the normal flow of a program. The `continue` command will let the
program run freely *until* it reaches a breakpoint. In this case, until it reaches `#[entry]`
which is a trampoline to the main function and where `break main` sets the breakpoint.
> **Note** that GDB output says "Breakpoint 1". Remember that our processor can only use six of these
> breakpoints so it's a good idea to pay attention to these messages.
OK. Since we are stopped at `#[entry]` and using the `disassemble /m` we see the code
for entry, which is a trampoline to main. That means it sets up the stack and then
invokes a subroutine call to the `main` function using an ARM branch and link instruction, `bl`.
```
(gdb) disassemble /m
Dump of assembler code for function main:
7 #[entry]
0x080001ec <+0>: push {r7, lr}
0x080001ee <+2>: mov r7, sp
=> 0x080001f0 <+4>: bl 0x80001f6 <_ZN12led_roulette18__cortex_m_rt_main17he61ef18c060014a5E>
0x080001f4 <+8>: udf #254 ; 0xfe
End of assembler dump.
```
Next we need to issue a `step` GDB command which will advance the program statement
by statement stepping into functions/procedures. So after this first `step` command we're
inside `main` and are positioned at the first executable `rust` statement, line 10, but it is
**not** executed:
```
(gdb) step
led_roulette::__cortex_m_rt_main () at src/05-led-roulette/src/main.rs:10
10 let x = 42;
```
Next we'll issue a second `step` which executes line 10 and stops at
line `11 _y = x;`, again line 11 is **not** executed.
> **NOTE** We could have pressed enter at the second `(gdb) ` prompt and
> it would have reissued the previous statement, `step`, but for clarity
> in this tutorial we'll generally retype the command.
```
(gdb) step
11 _y = x;
```
As you can see, in this mode, on each `step` command GDB will print the current statement along
with its line number. As you'll see later in the TUI mode you'll not see the statement
in the command area.
We are now "on" the `_y = x` statement; that statement hasn't been executed yet. This means that `x`
is initialized but `_y` is not. Let's inspect those stack/local variables using the `print`
command, `p` for short:
```
(gdb) print x
$1 = 42
(gdb) p &x
$2 = (*mut i32) 0x20009fe0
(gdb) p _y
$3 = 536870912
(gdb) p &_y
$4 = (*mut i32) 0x20009fe4
```
As expected, `x` contains the value `42`. `_y`, however, contains the value `536870912` (?). This
is because `_y` has not been initialized yet, it contains some garbage value.
The command `print &x` prints the address of the variable `x`. The interesting bit here is that GDB
output shows the type of the reference: `*mut i32`, a mutable pointer to an `i32` value. Another
interesting thing is that the addresses of `x` and `_y` are very close to each other: their
addresses are just `4` bytes apart.
Instead of printing the local variables one by one, you can also use the `info locals` command:
```
(gdb) info locals
x = 42
_y = 536870912
```
OK. With another `step`, we'll be on top of the `loop {}` statement:
```
(gdb) step
14 loop {}
```
And `_y` should now be initialized.
```
(gdb) print _y
$5 = 42
```
If we use `step` again on top of the `loop {}` statement, we'll get stuck because the program will
never pass that statement.
> **NOTE** If you used the `step` or any other command by mistake and GDB gets stuck, you can get
> it unstuck by hitting `Ctrl+C`.
As introduced above the `disassemble /m` command can be used to disassemble the program around the
line you are currently at. You might also want to `set print asm-demangle on`
so the names are demangled, this only needs to be done once a debug session. Later
this and other commands will be placed in an initialization file which will simplify
starting a debug session.
```
(gdb) set print asm-demangle on
(gdb) disassemble /m

End of assembler dump.
```
See the fat arrow `=>` on the left side? It shows the instruction the processor will execute next.
Also, as mentioned above if you were to execute the `step` command GDB gets stuck because it
is executing a branch instruction to itself and never gets past it. So you need to use
`Ctrl+C` to regain control. An alternative is to use the `stepi`(`si`) GDB command, which steps
one asm instruction, and GDB will print the address **and** line number of the statement
the processor will execute next and it won't get stuck.
```
(gdb) stepi
0x08000194 14 loop {}
(gdb) si
0x08000194 14 loop {}
```
One last trick before we move to something more interesting. Enter the following commands into GDB:
```
(gdb) monitor reset halt

End of assembler dump.
```
We are now back at the beginning of `#[entry]`!
`monitor reset halt` will reset the microcontroller and stop it right at the beginning of the program.
The `continue` command will then let the program run freely until it reaches a breakpoint, in
this case it is the breakpoint at `#[entry]`.
This combo is handy when you, by mistake, skipped over a part of the program that you were
interested in inspecting. You can easily roll back the state of your program back to its very
beginning.
> **The fine print**: This `reset` command doesn't clear or touch RAM. That memory will retain its
> values from the previous run. That shouldn't be a problem though, unless your program behavior

We are done with this debug session. You can end it with the `quit` command.
```
(gdb) quit
A debugging session is active.
Inferior 1 [Remote target] will be detached.
Quit anyway? (y or n) y
Detaching from program: $PWD/target/thumbv7em-none-eabihf/debug/led-roulette, Remote target
Ending remote debugging.
```
For a nicer debugging experience, you can use GDB's Text User Interface (TUI). To enter into that
mode enter one of the following commands in the GDB shell:
```
(gdb) layout src
(gdb) layout asm
(gdb) layout split
```
> **NOTE** Apologies to Windows users, the GDB shipped with the GNU ARM Embedded Toolchain
> may not support this TUI mode `:-(`.
Below is an example of setting up for a `layout split` by executing the follow commands.
As you can see we've dropped passing the `--target` parameter:
``` console
$ cargo run
(gdb) target remote :3333
(gdb) load
(gdb) set print asm-demangle on
(gdb) set style sources off
(gdb) break main
(gdb) continue
```
Here is a command line with the above commands as `-ex` parameters to save you some typing,
shortly we'll be providing an easier way to execute the initial set of commands:
```
cargo run -- -q -ex 'target remote :3333' -ex 'load' -ex 'set print asm-demangle on' -ex 'set style sources off' -ex 'b main' -ex 'c' target/thumbv7em-none-eabihf/debug/led-roulette
```
And below is the result:
![GDB session layout split](../assets/gdb-layout-split-1.png "GDB TUI layout split 1")
Now we'll scroll the top source window down so we see the entire file and execute `layout split` and then `step`:
![GDB session layout split](../assets/gdb-layout-split-2.png "GDB TUI layout split 2")
Then we'll execute a few `info locals` and `step`'s:
``` console
(gdb) info locals
(gdb) step
(gdb) info locals
(gdb) step
(gdb) info locals
```
![GDB session layout split](../assets/gdb-layout-split-3.png "GDB TUI layout split 3")
At any point you can leave the TUI mode using the following command:
```
(gdb) tui disable
```
![GDB session layout split](../assets/gdb-layout-split-4.png "GDB TUI layout split 4")
> **NOTE** If the default GDB CLI is not to your liking check out [gdb-dashboard]. It uses Python to
> turn the default GDB CLI into a dashboard that shows registers, the source view, the assembly view
> and other things.
[gdb-dashboard]: https://github.com/cyrus-and/gdb-dashboard#gdb-dashboard
Don't close OpenOCD though! We'll use it again and again later on. It's better
just to leave it running. If you want to learn more about what GDB can do, check out the section [How to use GDB](../appendix/2-how-to-use-gdb/).

# Flash it
Flashing is the process of moving our program into the microcontroller's (persistent) memory. Once
flashed, the microcontroller will execute the flashed program every time it is powered on.
In this case, our `led-roulette` program will be the *only* program in the microcontroller memory.
By this I mean that there's nothing else running on the microcontroller: no OS, no "daemon",
nothing. `led-roulette` has full control over the device.
Onto the actual flashing. First thing we need to do is launch OpenOCD. We did that in the
previous section but this time we'll run the command inside a temporary directory (`/tmp` on \*nix;
`%TEMP%` on Windows).
Make sure the F3 is connected to your computer and run the following commands in a **new terminal**.
## For *nix & MacOS:
``` console
cd /tmp
openocd -f interface/stlink-v2-1.cfg -f target/stm32f3x.cfg
```
## For Windows **Note**: substitute `C:` for the actual OpenOCD path:
```
cd %TEMP%
openocd -s C:\share\scripts -f interface/stlink-v2-1.cfg -f target/stm32f3x.cfg
```
> **NOTE** Older revisions of the board need to pass slightly different arguments to
> `openocd`. Review [this section] for the details.
[this section]: ../03-setup/verify.md#first-openocd-connection
The program will block; leave that terminal open.
Now it's a good time to explain what the `openocd` command is actually doing.
I mentioned that the STM32F3DISCOVERY (aka F3) actually has two microcontrollers. One of them is used as a
programmer/debugger. The part of the board that's used as a programmer is called ST-LINK (that's what
STMicroelectronics decided to call it). This ST-LINK is connected to the target microcontroller
using a Serial Wire Debug (SWD) interface (this interface is an ARM standard so you'll run into it
when dealing with other Cortex-M based microcontrollers). This SWD interface can be used to flash
and debug a microcontroller. The ST-LINK is connected to the "USB ST-LINK" port and will appear as
a USB device when you connect the F3 to your computer.
<p align="center">
<img height=640 title="On-board ST-LINK" src="../assets/st-link.png">
</p>
As for OpenOCD, it's software that provides some services like a *GDB server* on top of USB
devices that expose a debugging protocol like SWD or JTAG.
Onto the actual command: those `.cfg` files we are using instruct OpenOCD to look for a ST-LINK USB
device (`interface/stlink-v2-1.cfg`) and to expect a STM32F3XX microcontroller
(`target/stm32f3x.cfg`) to be connected to the ST-LINK.
The OpenOCD output looks like this:
``` console
$ openocd -f interface/stlink-v2-1.cfg -f target/stm32f3x.cfg

```
The "6 breakpoints, 4 watchpoints" part indicates the debugging features the processor has
available.
Leave that `openocd` process running, and in the previous terminal or a new terminal
**make sure that you are inside the project's `src/05-led-roulette/` directory**.
I mentioned that OpenOCD provides a GDB server so let's connect to that right now:
## Execute GDB
First, we need to determine what version of `gdb` you have that is capable of debugging ARM binaries.
This could be any one of the commands below, try each one:
``` console
arm-none-eabi-gdb -q -ex "target remote :3333" target/thumbv7em-none-eabihf/debug/led-roulette
```
``` console
gdb-multiarch -q -ex "target remote :3333" target/thumbv7em-none-eabihf/debug/led-roulette
```
``` console
gdb -q -ex "target remote :3333" target/thumbv7em-none-eabihf/debug/led-roulette
```
> **NOTE**: If you are getting `target/thumbv7em-none-eabihf/debug/led-roulette: No such file or directory`
> error, try adding `../../` to the file path, for example:
>
> ```shell
> $ gdb -q -ex "target remote :3333" ../../target/thumbv7em-none-eabihf/debug/led-roulette
> ```
>
> This is caused by each example project being in a `workspace` that contains the entire book, and workspaces have
> a single `target` directory. Check out [Workspaces chapter in Rust Book] for more.
### **Failing case**
You can detect a failing case if there is a `warning` or `error` after the `Remote debugging using :3333` line:
```
$ gdb -q -ex "target remote :3333" target/thumbv7em-none-eabihf/debug/led-roulette
Reading symbols from target/thumbv7em-none-eabihf/debug/led-roulette...
Remote debugging using :3333
warning: Architecture rejected target-supplied description

```
### **Successful case**
Successful case 1:
```
$ arm-none-eabi-gdb -q -ex "target remote :3333" target/thumbv7em-none-eabihf/debug/led-roulette
Reading symbols from target/thumbv7em-none-eabihf/debug/led-roulette...

497 pub unsafe extern "C" fn Reset() -> ! {
(gdb)
```
Successful case 2:
```
~/embedded-discovery/src/05-led-roulette (master)
$ arm-none-eabi-gdb -q -ex "target remote :3333" target/thumbv7em-none-eabihf/debug/led-roulette
Reading symbols from target/thumbv7em-none-eabihf/debug/led-roulette...
Remote debugging using :3333
0x00000000 in ?? ()
(gdb)
```
In both failing and successful cases you should see new output in the **OpenOCD terminal**, something like the following:
``` diff
Info : stm32f3x.cpu: hardware has 6 breakpoints, 4 watchpoints
+Info : accepting 'gdb' connection on tcp/3333
+Info : device id = 0x10036422
+Info : flash size = 256kbytes
```
> **NOTE** If you are getting an error like `undefined debug reason 7 - target needs reset`, you can try running `monitor reset halt` as described [here](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/38994596/reason-7-target-needs-reset-unreliable-debugging-setup).
By default OpenOCD's GDB server listens on TCP port 3333 (localhost). This command is connecting to
that port.
## Update ../.cargo/config.toml
Now that you've successfully determined which debugger you need to use
we need to change `../.cargo/config.toml` so that the `cargo run` command will succeed.
> **NOTE** `cargo` is the Rust package manager and you can read about it
[here](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/).
Get back to the terminal prompt and look at `../.cargo/config.toml`:
``` console
~/embedded-discovery/src/05-led-roulette
$ cat ../.cargo/config.toml
# default runner starts a GDB sesssion, which requires OpenOCD to be
# running, e.g.,
## openocd -f interface/stlink.cfg -f target/stm32f3x.cfg
# depending on your local GDB, pick one of the following
[target.thumbv7em-none-eabihf]
runner = "arm-none-eabi-gdb -q -x ../openocd.gdb"
# runner = "gdb-multiarch -q -x ../openocd.gdb"
# runner = "gdb -q -x ../openocd.gdb"
rustflags = [
"-C", "link-arg=-Tlink.x",
]
[build]
target = "thumbv7em-none-eabihf"
```
Use your favorite editor to edit `../.cargo/config.toml` so that the
`runner` line contains the correct name of that debugger:
``` console
nano ../.cargo/config.toml
```
For example, if your debugger was `gdb-multiarch` then after
editing the `git diff` should be:
``` diff
$ git diff ../.cargo/config.toml
diff --git a/f3discovery/src/.cargo/config.toml b/f3discovery/src/.cargo/config.toml
index 2f38f6b..95860a0 100644

Now that you have `../.cargo/config.toml` setup let's test it using `cargo run` to
start the debug session.

Bravo, we will be modifying `../.cargo/config.toml` in future. **But**, since
this file is shared with all of the chapters those changes should be made with
that in mind. If you want or we need to make changes that only pertain to
a particular chapter then create a `.cargo/config.toml` local to that chapter
directory.
## Flash the device
Assuming you have GDB running, if not start it as suggested in the previous section.
> **NOTE** The `-x ../openocd.gdb` arguments to `gdb` is already setup
> to flash the device, so explicitly flashing the project code to the
> device is normally handled with a simple `cargo run`. We'll cover
> the openocd configuration script in the next section.
Now use the `load` command in `gdb` to actually flash the program into the device:
```
(gdb) load
Loading section .vector_table, size 0x194 lma 0x8000000
Loading section .text, size 0x20ec lma 0x8000194

Start address 0x08000194, load size 10132
Transfer rate: 17 KB/sec, 3377 bytes/write.
```
You'll also see new output in the OpenOCD terminal, something like:
``` diff

One more thing! Check that your solution also works when compiled in "release" mode:
``` console
$ cargo build --target thumbv7em-none-eabihf --release

You can test it with this `gdb` command:

Binary size is something we should always keep an eye on! How big is your solution? You can check
that using the `size` command on the release binary:

Know how to read this output? The `text` section contains the program instructions. It's around 5.25KB
in my case. On the other hand, the `data` and `bss` sections contain variables statically allocated
in RAM (`static` variables). A `static` variable is being used in `aux5::init`; that's why it shows 4
bytes of `bss`.
One final thing! We have been running our programs from within GDB but our programs doesn't depend on
GDB at all. You can confirm this be closing both GDB and OpenOCD and then resetting the board by
pressing the black button on the board. The LED roulette application will run without intervention
of GDB.

# The challenge
You are now well armed to face a challenge! Your task will be to implement the application I showed
you at the beginning of this chapter.
Here's the GIF again:
<p align="center">
<img src="https://i.imgur.com/0k1r2Lc.gif">
</p>
Also, this may help:
<p align="center">
<img class="white_bg" src="../assets/timing-diagram.png">
</p>
This is a timing diagram. It indicates which LED is on at any given instant of time and for how long
each LED should be on. On the X axis we have the time in milliseconds. The timing diagram shows a
single period. This pattern will repeat itself every 800 ms. The Y axis labels each LED with a
cardinal point: North, East, etc. As part of the challenge you'll have to figure out how each
element in the `Leds` array maps to these cardinal points (hint: `cargo doc --open` `;-)`).
Before you attempt this challenge, let me give you one additonal tip. Our GDB sessions always involve
entering the same commands at the beginning. We can use a `.gdb` file to execute some commands
right after GDB is started. This way you can save yourself the effort of having to enter them
manually on each GDB session.
As it turns out we've already created `../openocd.gdb` and you can see it's doing
pretty much what we did in the previous section plus a few other commands. Look at
the comments for additional information:
``` console
$ cat ../openocd.gdb
# Connect to gdb remote server
target remote :3333
# Load will flash the code
load
# Eanble demangling asm names on disassembly
set print asm-demangle on
# Enable pretty printing
set print pretty on
# Disable style sources as the default colors can be hard to read
set style sources off
# Initialize monitoring so iprintln! macro output
# is sent from the itm port to itm.txt
monitor tpiu config internal itm.txt uart off 8000000
# Turn on the itm port
monitor itm port 0 on
# Set a breakpoint at main, aka entry
break main
# Set a breakpiont at DefaultHandler
break DefaultHandler
# Set a breakpiont at HardFault
break HardFault
# Continue running and until we hit the main breakpoint
continue
# Step from the trampoline code in entry into main
step
```
Now we need to modify the `../.cargo/config.toml` file to execute `../openocd.gdb`
``` console
nano ../.cargo/config.toml
```
Edit your `runner` command ` -x ../openocd.gdb`.
Assuming you're using `arm-none-eabi-gdb` the diff is:
``` diff
~/embedded-discovery/src/05-led-roulette
$ git diff ../.cargo/config.toml
diff --git a/src/.cargo/config.toml b/src/.cargo/config.toml

+runner = "arm-none-eabi-gdb -q -x ../openocd.gdb"

# runner = "gdb -q"

And the full contents of `../.cargo/config.toml`, again
assuming `arm-none-eabi-gdb`, is:
``` toml
[target.thumbv7em-none-eabihf]

rustflags = [

target = "thumbv7em-none-eabihf"
```
With that in place, you can now use a simple `cargo run` command which will build
the ARM version of the code and run the `gdb` session. The `gdb` session will
automatically flash the program and jump to the beginning of `main` as it `step`'s
through the entry trampoline:

## Fork the discovery book
If you haven't already ready, it's probably a good idea to fork
the [embedded discovery book](https://github.com/rust-embedded/discovery) so you
can save your changes in your own branch of your fork. We suggest creating
your own branch and leaving the `master` branch alone so the `master` branch
of your fork can stay in sync with the upstream repo. Also, it allows you to
more easily create PR's and improve this book, **thank you in advance**!

# The `Led` and `Delay` abstractions
Now, I'm going to introduce two high level abstractions that we'll use to implement the LED roulette
application.
The auxiliary crate, `aux5`, exposes an initialization function called `init`. When called this
function returns two values packed in a tuple: a `Delay` value and a `LedArray` value.
`Delay` can be used to block your program for a specified amount of milliseconds.
`LedArray` is an array of eight `Led`s. Each `Led` represents one of the LEDs on the F3 board,
and exposes two methods: `on` and `off` which can be used to turn the LED on or off, respectively.
Let's try out these two abstractions by modifying the starter code to look like this:
``` rust
{{#include examples/the-led-and-delay-abstractions.rs}}
```
Now build it:
``` console
cargo build
```
> **NOTE**: It's possible to forget to rebuild the program *before* starting a GDB session; this
> omission can lead to very confusing debug sessions. To avoid this problem you can call just `cargo run`
> instead of `cargo build`. The `cargo run` command will build *and* start a debug
> session ensuring you never forget to recompile your program.
Now we'll run and repeat the flashing procedure as we did in the previous section
but with the new program. I'll let you type in the `cargo run`, *this will get easier shortly*. :)
> **NOTE**: Don't forget to start ```openocd``` (debugger) on a separate terminal.
> Otherwise `target remote :3333` won't work!

```
OK. Let's step through the code. This time, we'll use the `next` command instead of `step`. The
difference is that the `next` command will step *over* function calls instead of going inside them.
```
(gdb) next
11 let half_period = 500_u16;
(gdb) next
13 loop {
(gdb) next
14 leds[0].on().ok();
(gdb) next
15 delay.delay_ms(half_period);
```
After executing the `leds[0].on().ok()` statement, you should see a red LED, the one pointing North,
turn on.
Let's continue stepping over the program:
```
(gdb) next
17 leds[0].off().ok();
(gdb) next
18 delay.delay_ms(half_period);
```
The `delay_ms` call will block the program for half a second but you may not notice because the
`next` command also takes some time to execute. However, after stepping over the `leds[0].off()`
statement you should see the red LED turn off.
You can already guess what this program does. Let it run uninterrupted using the `continue` command.
```
(gdb) continue
Continuing.
```
Now, let's do something more interesting. We are going to modify the behavior of our program using
GDB.
First, let's stop the infinite loop by hitting `Ctrl+C`. You'll probably end up somewhere inside
`Led::on`, `Led::off` or `delay_ms`:
```
^C
Program received signal SIGINT, Interrupt.
0x08003434 in core::ptr::read_volatile<u32> (src=0xe000e010)
at ~/.rustup/toolchains/stable-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/lib/rustlib/src/rust/library/core/src/ptr/mod.rs:1053
```
In my case, the program stopped its execution inside a `read_volatile` function. GDB output shows
some interesting information about that: `core::ptr::read_volatile (src=0xe000e010)`. This means
that the function comes from the `core` crate and that it was called with argument `src =
0xe000e010`.
Just so you know, a more explicit way to show the arguments of a function is to use the `info args`
command:
```
(gdb) info args
src = 0xe000e010
```
Regardless of where your program may have stopped you can always look at the output of the
`backtrace` command (`bt` for short) to learn how it got there:
```

```
`backtrace` will print a trace of function calls from the current function down to main.
Back to our topic. To do what we are after, first, we have to return to the `main` function. We can
do that using the `finish` command. This command resumes the program execution and stops it again
right after the program returns from the current function. We'll have to call it several times.
```

```
We are back in `main`. We have a local variable in here: `half_period`
```
(gdb) print half_period
$3 = 500
```
Now, we are going to modify this variable using the `set` command:
```
(gdb) set half_period = 100
(gdb) print half_period
$5 = 100
```
If you let program run free again using the `continue` command, you **might** see that the LED will
blink at a much faster rate now, but more likely the blink rate didn't change. **What happened?**
Let's stop the program with `Ctrl+C` and then set a break point at `main:14`.
``` console
(gdb) continue
Continuing.
^C
Program received signal SIGINT, Interrupt.
core::cell::UnsafeCell<u32>::get<u32> (self=0x20009fa4)

1711 pub const fn get(&self) -> *mut T {
```
Then set a break point at `main.rs:14` and `continue`
``` console
(gdb) break main.rs:14
Breakpoint 2 at 0x8000236: file src/05-led-roulette/src/main.rs, line 14.
(gdb) continue

End of assembler dump.
```
In the above dump the reason the delay didn't change was because the compiler
recognized that half_period didn't change and instead in the two places where
`delay.delay_ms(half_period);` is called we see `mov.w r1, #500`. So changing the
value of `half_period` does nothing!
``` console
0x08000244 <+60>: mov.w r1, #500 ; 0x1f4
15 delay.delay_ms(half_period);
0x08000248 <+64>: bl 0x8002f5c <stm32f3xx_hal::delay::{{impl}}::delay_ms>
(..)
0x0800025e <+86>: mov.w r1, #500 ; 0x1f4
18 delay.delay_ms(half_period);
0x08000262 <+90>: bl 0x8002f5c <stm32f3xx_hal::delay::{{impl}}::delay_ms>
```
One solution to the problem is to wrap `half_period` in a `Volatile` as shown below.
``` console
#![deny(unsafe_code)]
#![no_main]
#![no_std]
use volatile::Volatile;
use aux5::{Delay, DelayMs, LedArray, OutputSwitch, entry};
#[entry]
fn main() -> ! {
let (mut delay, mut leds): (Delay, LedArray) = aux5::init();
let mut half_period = 500_u16;
let v_half_period = Volatile::new(&mut half_period);
loop {
leds[0].on().ok();
delay.delay_ms(v_half_period.read());
leds[0].off().ok();
delay.delay_ms(v_half_period.read());
}
}
```
Edit `Cargo.toml` adding `volatile = "0.4.3"` in the `[dependencies]` section.
``` console
[dependencies]
aux5 = { path = "auxiliary" }
volatile = "0.4.3"
```
With the above code using `Volatile` you can now change `half_period` and
you'll be able to experiment with different values. Here is the list of
commands followed by an explanation; `# xxxx` to demonstrate.
```
$ cargo run --target thumbv7em-none-eabihf # Compile and load the program into gdb
(gdb) target remote :3333 # Connect to STM32F3DISCOVERY board from PC
(gdb) load # Flash program
(gdb) break main.rs:16 # Set breakpoint 1 at top of loop
(gdb) continue # Continue, will stop at main.rs:16
(gdb) disable 1 # Disable breakpoint 1
(gdb) set print asm-demangle on # Enable asm-demangle
(gdb) disassemble /m # Disassemble main function
(gdb) continue # Led blinking on for 1/2 sec then off 1/2 sec
^C # Stop with Ctrl+C
(gdb) enable 1 # Enable breakpoint 1
(gdb) continue # Continue, will stop at main.rs:16
(gdb) print half_period # Print half_period result is 500
(gdb) set half_period = 2000 # Set half_period to 2000ms
(gdb) print half_period # Print half_period and result is 2000
(gdb) disable 1 # Disable breakpoint 1
(gdb) continue # Led blinking on for 2 secs then off 2 sec
^C # Stop with Ctrl+C
(gdb) quit # Quit gdb
```
The critical changes are at lines 13, 17 and 20 in the source code which
you can see in the disassembly. At 13 we create `v_half_period` and then
`read()` its value in lines 17 and 20. This means that when we `set half_period = 2000`
the led will now be on for 2 seconds then off for 2 seconds.

Question! What happens if you start lowering the value of `half_period`? At what value of
`half_period` you can no longer see the LED blink?
Now, it's your turn to write a program.

Just a little more of helpful magic before we start doing low level stuff.
Blinking an LED is like the "Hello, world" of the embedded world.
But in this section, we'll run a proper "Hello, world" program that prints stuff to your computer
console.
Go to the `06-hello-world` directory. There's some starter code in it:
``` rust
{{#include src/main.rs}}
```
The `iprintln` macro will format messages and output them to the microcontroller's *ITM*. ITM stands
for Instrumentation Trace Macrocell and it's a communication protocol on top of SWD (Serial Wire
Debug) which can be used to send messages from the microcontroller to the debugging host. This
communication is only *one way*: the debugging host can't send data to the microcontroller.
OpenOCD, which is managing the debug session, can receive data sent through this ITM *channel* and
redirect it to a file.
The ITM protocol works with *frames* (you can think of them as Ethernet frames). Each frame has a
header and a variable length payload. OpenOCD will receive these frames and write them directly to a
file without parsing them. So, if the microntroller sends the string "Hello, world!" using the
`iprintln` macro, OpenOCD's output file won't exactly contain that string.
To retrieve the original string, OpenOCD's output file will have to be parsed. We'll use the
`itmdump` program to perform the parsing as new data arrives.
You should have already installed the `itmdump` program during the [installation chapter].
[installation chapter]: ../03-setup/index.html#itmdump
In a new terminal, run this command inside the `/tmp` directory, if you are using a \*nix OS, or from
within the `%TEMP%` directory, if you are running Windows. This should be the same directory from
where you are running OpenOCD.
> **NOTE** It's very important that both `itmdump` and `openocd` are running
from the same directory!
``` console
$ # itmdump terminal
$ # *nix
$ cd /tmp && touch itm.txt
$ # Windows
$ cd %TEMP% && type nul >> itm.txt
$ # both
$ itmdump -F -f itm.txt
```
This command will block as `itmdump` is now watching the `itm.txt` file. Leave this terminal open.
Make sure that the STM32F3DISCOVERY board is connected to your computer. Open another terminal
from `/tmp` directory (on Windows `%TEMP%`) to launch OpenOCD similar as described in [chapter 3].
[chapter 3]: ../03-setup/verify.html#first-openocd-connection
Alright. Now, let's build the starter code and flash it into the microcontroller.
We will now build and run the application, `cargo run`. And step through it using `next`.
Since `openocd.gdb` contains the `monitor` commands in `openocd.gdb` OpenOCD will redirect
the ITM output to itm.txt and `itmdump` will write it to its terminal window. Also, it setup
break points and stepped through the trampoline we are at the first executable
statement in `fn main()`:

10 let mut itm = aux6::init();
(gdb)
```
Now issue a `next` command which will execute `aux6::init()` and
stop at the next executable statement in `main.rs`, which
positions us at line 12:
``` text
(gdb) next
12 iprintln!(&mut itm.stim[0], "Hello, world!");
```
Then issue another `next` command which will execute
line 12, executing the `iprintln` and stop at line 14:
``` text
(gdb) next
14 loop {}
```
Now since `iprintln` has been executed the output on the `itmdump`
terminal window should be the `Hello, world!` string:
``` console
$ itmdump -F -f itm.txt
(...)
Hello, world!
```
Awesome, right? Feel free to use `iprintln` as a logging tool in the coming sections.
Next: That's not all! The `iprint!` macros are not the only thing that uses the ITM. `:-)`

# `panic!`
The `panic!` macro also sends its output to the ITM!
Change the `main` function to look like this:
``` rust
#[entry]
fn main() -> ! {
panic!("Hello, world!");
}
```
Before running one other suggestion, I find it inconvenient to have to
confirm when quitting gdb. Add the following file in your home
directory `~/.gdbinit` so that it quits immediately:
``` console
$ cat ~/.gdbinit
define hook-quit
set confirm off
end
```
OK, now use `cargo run` and it stops at the first line of `fn main()`:

We'll use short command names to save typing, enter `c` then the `Enter` or `Return` key:

```
If all is well you'll see some new output in the `itmdump` terminal.
``` console
$ # itmdump terminal
(..)
panicked at 'Hello, world!', src/06-hello-world/src/main.rs:10:5
```
Then type `Ctrl-c` which breaks out of a loop in the runtime:
``` text
^C
Program received signal SIGINT, Interrupt.

57 atomic::compiler_fence(Ordering::SeqCst);
```
Ultimately, `panic!` is just another function call so you can see it leaves behind
a trace of function calls. This allows you to use `backtrace` or just `bt` and to see
call stack that caused the panic:
``` text
(gdb) bt
#0 panic_itm::panic (info=0x20009fa0) at ~/.cargo/registry/src/github.com-1ecc6299db9ec823/panic-itm-0.4.2/src/lib.rs:47

#4 0x080001f4 in hello_world::__cortex_m_rt_main_trampoline () at src/06-hello-world/src/main.rs:8
```
Another thing we can do is catch the panic *before* it does the logging.
So we'll do several things; reset to the beginning, disable breakpoint 1,
set a new breakpoint at `rust_begin_unwind`, list the break points and then continue:
``` text

You'll notice that nothing got printed on the `itmdump` console this time. If
you resume the program using `continue` then a new line will be printed.
In a later section we'll look into other simpler communication protocols.
Finally, enter the `q` command to quit and it quits immediately without asking for confirmation:

# Registers
It's time to explore what the `Led` API does under the hood.
In a nutshell, it just writes to some special memory regions. Go into the `07-registers` directory
and let's run the starter code statement by statement.
``` rust
{{#include src/main.rs}}
```
What's this magic?
The address `0x48001018` points to a *register*. A register is a special region of memory that
controls a *peripheral*. A peripheral is a piece of electronics that sits right next to the
processor within the microcontroller package and provides the processor with extra functionality.
After all, the processor, on its own, can only do math and logic.
This particular register controls General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) *pins* (GPIO *is* a
peripheral) and can be used to *drive* each of those pins *low* or *high*.
## An aside: LEDs, digital outputs and voltage levels
Drive? Pin? Low? High?
A pin is a electrical contact. Our microcontroller has several of them and some of them are
connected to LEDs. An LED, a Light Emitting Diode, will only emit light when voltage is applied to
it with a certain polarity.
<p align="center">
<img class="white_bg" height=180 title="LED circuit" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c9/LED_circuit.svg">
</p>
Luckily for us, the microcontroller's pins are connected to the LEDs with the right polarity. All
that we have to do is *output* some non-zero voltage through the pin to turn the LED on. The pins
attached to the LEDs are configured as *digital outputs* and can only output two different voltage
levels: "low", 0 Volts, or "high", 3 Volts. A "high" (voltage) level will turn the LED on whereas
a "low" (voltage) level will turn it off.
These "low" and "high" states map directly to the concept of digital logic. "low" is `0` or `false`
and "high" is `1` or `true`. This is why this pin configuration is known as digital output.
---
OK. But how can one find out what this register does? Time to RTRM (Read the Reference Manual)!

# `0xBAAAAAAD` address
Not all the peripheral memory can be accessed. Look at this program.
``` rust
#![no_main]
#![no_std]
use core::ptr;
#[allow(unused_imports)]
use aux7::{entry, iprint, iprintln};
#[entry]
fn main() -> ! {
aux7::init();
unsafe {
ptr::read_volatile(0x4800_1800 as *const u32);
}
loop {}
}
```
This address is close to the `GPIOE_BSRR` address we used before but this address is *invalid*.
Invalid in the sense that there's no register at this address.
Now, let's try it.
``` console
$ cargo run
(..)
Breakpoint 1, registers::__cortex_m_rt_main_trampoline () at src/07-registers/src/main.rs:9
9 #[entry]
(gdb) continue
Continuing.
Breakpoint 3, cortex_m_rt::HardFault_ (ef=0x20009fb0)
at ~/.cargo/registry/src/github.com-1ecc6299db9ec823/cortex-m-rt-0.6.13/src/lib.rs:560
560 loop {
(gdb)
```
We tried to do an invalid operation, reading memory that doesn't exist, so the processor raised an
*exception*, a *hardware* exception.
In most cases, exceptions are raised when the processor attempts to perform an invalid operation.
Exceptions break the normal flow of a program and force the processor to execute an *exception
handler*, which is just a function/subroutine.
There are different kind of exceptions. Each kind of exception is raised by different conditions and
each one is handled by a different exception handler.
The `aux7` crate depends on the `cortex-m-rt` crate which defines a default
*hard fault* handler, named `HardFault`, that handles the "invalid memory
address" exception. `openocd.gdb` placed a breakpoint on `HardFault`; that's why
the debugger halted your program while it was executing the exception handler.
We can get more information about the exception from the debugger. Let's see:
```
(gdb) list
555 #[allow(unused_variables)]
556 #[doc(hidden)]
557 #[link_section = ".HardFault.default"]
558 #[no_mangle]
559 pub unsafe extern "C" fn HardFault_(ef: &ExceptionFrame) -> ! {
560 loop {
561 // add some side effect to prevent this from turning into a UDF instruction
562 // see rust-lang/rust#28728 for details
563 atomic::compiler_fence(Ordering::SeqCst);
564 }
```
`ef` is a snapshot of the program state right before the exception occurred. Let's inspect it:
```
(gdb) print/x *ef
$1 = cortex_m_rt::ExceptionFrame {
r0: 0x48001800,
r1: 0x80036b0,
r2: 0x1,
r3: 0x80000000,
r12: 0xb,
lr: 0x800020d,
pc: 0x8001750,
xpsr: 0xa1000200
}
```
There are several fields here but the most important one is `pc`, the Program Counter register.
The address in this register points to the instruction that generated the exception. Let's
disassemble the program around the bad instruction.
```
(gdb) disassemble /m ef.pc

0x0800175c <+16>: add sp, #12
0x0800175e <+18>: bx lr
End of assembler dump.
```
The exception was caused by the `ldr r0, [r0, #0]` instruction, a read instruction. The instruction
tried to read the memory at the address indicated by the `r0` register. By the way, `r0` is a CPU
(processor) register not a memory mapped register; it doesn't have an associated address like, say,
`GPIO_BSRR`.
Wouldn't it be nice if we could check what the value of the `r0` register was right at the instant
when the exception was raised? Well, we already did! The `r0` field in the `ef` value we printed
before is the value of `r0` register had when the exception was raised. Here it is again:
```
(gdb) print/x *ef
$1 = cortex_m_rt::ExceptionFrame {
r0: 0x48001800,
r1: 0x80036b0,
r2: 0x1,
r3: 0x80000000,
r12: 0xb,
lr: 0x800020d,
pc: 0x8001750,
xpsr: 0xa1000200
}
```
`r0` contains the value `0x4800_1800` which is the invalid address we called the `read_volatile`
function with.

# (mis)Optimization
Reads/writes to registers are quite special. I may even dare to say that they are embodiment of side
effects. In the previous example we wrote four different values to the same register. If you didn't
know that address was a register, you may have simplified the logic to just write the final value `1
<< (11 + 16)` into the register.
Actually, LLVM, the compiler's backend / optimizer, does not know we are dealing with a register and
will merge the writes thus changing the behavior of our program. Let's check that really quick.
``` console

End of assembler dump.
```
The state of the LEDs didn't change this time! The `str` instruction is the one that writes a value
to the register. Our *debug* (unoptimized) program had four of them, one for each write to the
register, but the *release* (optimized) program only has one.
We can check that using `objdump` and capture the output to `out.asm`:
``` console
# same as cargo objdump -- -d --no-show-raw-insn --print-imm-hex --source target/thumbv7em-none-eabihf/debug/registers
cargo objdump --bin registers -- -d --no-show-raw-insn --print-imm-hex --source > debug.txt
```
Then examine `debug.txt` looking for `main` and we see the 4 `str` instructions:
```

(..)
```
How do we prevent LLVM from misoptimizing our program? We use *volatile* operations instead of plain
reads/writes:
``` rust
#![no_main]
#![no_std]
use core::ptr;
#[allow(unused_imports)]
use aux7::entry;
#[entry]
fn main() -> ! {
aux7::init();
unsafe {
// A magic address!
const GPIOE_BSRR: u32 = 0x48001018;
// Turn on the "North" LED (red)
ptr::write_volatile(GPIOE_BSRR as *mut u32, 1 << 9);
// Turn on the "East" LED (green)
ptr::write_volatile(GPIOE_BSRR as *mut u32, 1 << 11);
// Turn off the "North" LED
ptr::write_volatile(GPIOE_BSRR as *mut u32, 1 << (9 + 16));
// Turn off the "East" LED
ptr::write_volatile(GPIOE_BSRR as *mut u32, 1 << (11 + 16));
}
loop {}
}
```
Generate `release.txt` using with `--release` mode.
``` console
cargo objdump --release --bin registers -- -d --no-show-raw-insn --print-imm-hex --source > release.txt
```
Now find the `main` routine in `release.txt` and we see the 4 `str` instructions.
```
0800023e <main>:
; #[entry]
800023e: push {r7, lr}
8000240: mov r7, sp
8000242: bl #0x2

8000248: push {r7, lr}
800024a: mov r7, sp
; aux7::init();
800024c: bl #0x22
8000250: movw r0, #0x1018
8000254: mov.w r1, #0x200

8000270: b #-0x4 <registers::__cortex_m_rt_main::h45b1ef53e18aa8d0+0x28>
(..)
```
We see that the four writes (`str` instructions) are preserved. If you run it using
`gdb` you'll also see that we get the expected behavior.
> NB: The last `next` will endlessly execute `loop {}`, use `Ctrl-c` to get
> back to the `(gdb)` prompt.

# RTRM: Reading The Reference Manual
I mentioned that the microcontroller has several pins. For convenience, these pins are grouped in
*ports* of 16 pins. Each port is named with a letter: Port A, Port B, etc. and the pins within each
port are named with numbers from 0 to 15.
The first thing we have to find out is which pin is connected to which LED. This information is in
the STM32F3DISCOVERY [User Manual] (You downloaded a copy, right?). In this particular section:
[User Manual]: http://www.st.com/resource/en/user_manual/dm00063382.pdf
> Section 6.4 LEDs - Page 18
The manual says:
- `LD3`, the North LED, is connected to the pin `PE9`. `PE9` is the short form of: Pin 9 on Port E.
- `LD7`, the East LED, is connected to the pin `PE11`.
Up to this point, we know that we want to change the state of the pins PE9 and PE11 to turn the
North/East LEDs on/off. These pins are part of Port E so we'll have to deal with the `GPIOE`
peripheral.
Each peripheral has a register *block* associated to it. A register block is a collection of
registers allocated in contiguous memory. The address at which the register block starts is known as
its base address. We need to figure out what's the base address of the `GPIOE` peripheral. That
information is in the following section of the microcontroller [Reference Manual]:
[Reference Manual]: http://www.st.com/resource/en/reference_manual/dm00043574.pdf
> Section 3.2.2 Memory map and register boundary addresses - Page 51
The table says that base address of the `GPIOE` register block is `0x4800_1000`.
Each peripheral also has its own section in the documentation. Each of these sections ends with a
table of the registers that the peripheral's register block contains. For the `GPIO` family of
peripheral, that table is in:
> Section 11.4.12 GPIO register map - Page 243
'BSRR' is the register which we will be using to set/reset. Its offset value is '0x18' from the base address
of the 'GPIOE'. We can look up BSRR in the reference manual.
GPIO Registers -> GPIO port bit set/reset register (GPIOx_BSRR).
Now we need to jump to the documentation of that particular register. It's a few pages above in:
> Section 11.4.7 GPIO port bit set/reset register (GPIOx_BSRR) - Page 240
Finally!
This is the register we were writing to. The documentation says some interesting things. First, this
register is write only ... so let's try reading its value `:-)`.
We'll use GDB's `examine` command: `x`.
```
(gdb) next
16 *(GPIOE_BSRR as *mut u32) = 1 << 9;
(gdb) x 0x48001018
0x48001018: 0x00000000
(gdb) # the next command will turn the North LED on
(gdb) next
19 *(GPIOE_BSRR as *mut u32) = 1 << 11;
(gdb) x 0x48001018
0x48001018: 0x00000000
```
Reading the register returns `0`. That matches what the documentation says.
The other thing that the documentation says is that the bits 0 to 15 can be used to *set* the
corresponding pin. That is bit 0 sets the pin 0. Here, *set* means outputting a *high* value on
the pin.
The documentation also says that bits 16 to 31 can be used to *reset* the corresponding pin. In this
case, the bit 16 resets the pin number 0. As you may guess, *reset* means outputting a *low* value
on the pin.
Correlating that information with our program, all seems to be in agreement:
- Writing `1 << 9` (`BS9 = 1`) to `BSRR` sets `PE9` *high*. That turns the North LED *on*.
- Writing `1 << 11` (`BS11 = 1`) to `BSRR` sets `PE11` *high*. That turns the East LED *on*.
- Writing `1 << 25` (`BR9 = 1`) to `BSRR` sets `PE9` *low*. That turns the North LED *off*.
- Finally, writing `1 << 27` (`BR11 = 1`) to `BSRR` sets `PE11` *low*. That turns the East LED *off*.

# Spooky action at a distance
`BSRR` is not the only register that can control the pins of Port E. The `ODR` register also lets
you change the value of the pins. Furthermore, `ODR` also lets you retrieve the current output
status of Port E.
`ODR` is documented in:
> Section 11.4.6 GPIO port output data register - Page 239
Let's look at this program. The key to this program
is `fn iprint_odr`. This function prints the current
value in `ODR` to the `ITM` console
``` rust
#![no_main]
#![no_std]
use core::ptr;
#[allow(unused_imports)]
use aux7::{entry, iprintln, ITM};
// Print the current contents of odr
fn iprint_odr(itm: &mut ITM) {
const GPIOE_ODR: u32 = 0x4800_1014;
unsafe {
iprintln!(
&mut itm.stim[0],
"ODR = 0x{:04x}",
ptr::read_volatile(GPIOE_ODR as *const u16)
);
}
}
#[entry]
fn main() -> ! {
let mut itm= aux7::init().0;
unsafe {
// A magic addresses!
const GPIOE_BSRR: u32 = 0x4800_1018;
// Print the initial contents of ODR
iprint_odr(&mut itm);
// Turn on the "North" LED (red)
ptr::write_volatile(GPIOE_BSRR as *mut u32, 1 << 9);
iprint_odr(&mut itm);
// Turn on the "East" LED (green)
ptr::write_volatile(GPIOE_BSRR as *mut u32, 1 << 11);
iprint_odr(&mut itm);
// Turn off the "North" LED
ptr::write_volatile(GPIOE_BSRR as *mut u32, 1 << (9 + 16));
iprint_odr(&mut itm);
// Turn off the "East" LED
ptr::write_volatile(GPIOE_BSRR as *mut u32, 1 << (11 + 16));
iprint_odr(&mut itm);
}
loop {}
}
```
If you run this program
```
$ cargo run
(..)
Breakpoint 1, registers::__cortex_m_rt_main_trampoline () at src/07-registers/src/main.rs:22
22 #[entry]
(gdb) continue
Continuing.
```
You'll see on itmdump's console:
``` console
$ # itmdump's console
(..)
ODR = 0x0000
ODR = 0x0200
ODR = 0x0a00
ODR = 0x0800
ODR = 0x0000
```
Side effects! Although we are reading the same address multiple times without actually modifying it,
we still see its value change every time `BSRR` is written to.

# Type safe manipulation
The last register we were working with, `ODR`, had this in its documentation:
> Bits 31:16 Reserved, must be kept at reset value
We are not supposed to write to those bits of the register or Bad Stuff May Happen.
There's also the fact the registers have different read/write permissions. Some of them are write
only, others can be read and written to and there must be others that are read only.
Finally, directly working with hexadecimal addresses is error prone. You already saw that trying to
access an invalid memory address causes an exception which disrupts the execution of our program.
Wouldn't it be nice if we had an API to manipulate registers in a "safe" manner? Ideally, the API
should encode these three points I've mentioned: No messing around with the actual addresses, should
respect read/write permissions and should prevent modification of the reserved parts of a register.
Well, we do! `aux7::init()` actually returns a value that provides a type safe API to manipulate the
registers of the `GPIOE` peripheral.
As you may remember: a group of registers associated to a peripheral is called register block, and
it's located in a contiguous region of memory. In this type safe API each register block is modeled
as a `struct` where each of its fields represents a register. Each register field is a different
newtype over e.g. `u32` that exposes a combination of the following methods: `read`, `write` or
`modify` according to its read/write permissions. Finally, these methods don't take primitive values
like `u32`, instead they take yet another newtype that can be constructed using the builder pattern
and that prevent the modification of the reserved parts of the register.
The best way to get familiar with this API is to port our running example to it.
``` rust
#![no_main]
#![no_std]
#[allow(unused_imports)]
use aux7::{entry, iprintln, ITM, RegisterBlock};
#[entry]
fn main() -> ! {
let gpioe = aux7::init().1;
// Turn on the North LED
gpioe.bsrr.write(|w| w.bs9().set_bit());
// Turn on the East LED
gpioe.bsrr.write(|w| w.bs11().set_bit());
// Turn off the North LED
gpioe.bsrr.write(|w| w.br9().set_bit());
// Turn off the East LED
gpioe.bsrr.write(|w| w.br11().set_bit());
loop {}
}
```
First thing you notice: There are no magic addresses involved. Instead we use a more human friendly
way, for example `gpioe.bsrr`, to refer to the `BSRR` register in the `GPIOE` register block.
Then we have this `write` method that takes a closure. If the identity closure (`|w| w`) is used,
this method will set the register to its *default* (reset) value, the value it had right after the
microcontroller was powered on / reset. That value is `0x0` for the `BSRR` register. Since we want
to write a non-zero value to the register, we use builder methods like `bs9` and `br9` to set some
of the bits of the default value.
Let's run this program! There's some interesting stuff we can do *while* debugging the program.
`gpioe` is a reference to the `GPIOE` register block. `print gpioe` will return the base address of
the register block.
```
$ cargo run

But if we instead `print *gpioe`, we'll get a *full view* of the register block: the value of each
of its registers will be printed.

All these newtypes and closures sound like they'd generate large, bloated programs but, if you
actually compile the program in release mode with [LTO] enabled, you'll see that it produces exactly
the same instructions that the "unsafe" version that used `write_volatile` and hexadecimal addresses
did!
[LTO]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interprocedural_optimization
Use `cargo objdump` to grab the assembler code to `release.txt`:
``` console
cargo objdump --bin registers --release -- -d --no-show-raw-insn --print-imm-hex > release.txt
```
Then search for `main` in `release.txt`
```
0800023e <main>:
800023e: push {r7, lr}
8000240: mov r7, sp
8000242: bl #0x2
8000246: trap
08000248 <registers::__cortex_m_rt_main::h199f1359501d5c71>:
8000248: push {r7, lr}
800024a: mov r7, sp
800024c: bl #0x22
8000250: movw r0, #0x1018
8000254: mov.w r1, #0x200
8000258: movt r0, #0x4800
800025c: str r1, [r0]

8000270: b #-0x4 <registers::__cortex_m_rt_main::h199f1359501d5c71+0x28>
```
The best part of all this is that nobody had to write a single line of code to implement the
GPIOE API. All the code was automatically generated from a System View Description (SVD) file using the
[svd2rust] tool. This SVD file is actually an XML file that microcontroller vendors provide and that
contains the register maps of their microcontrollers. The file contains the layout of register
blocks, the base addresses, the read/write permissions of each register, the layout of the
registers, whether a register has reserved bits and lots of other useful information.

# LEDs, again
In the last section, I gave you *initialized* (configured) peripherals (I initialized them in
`aux7::init`). That's why just writing to `BSRR` was enough to control the LEDs. But, peripherals
are not *initialized* right after the microcontroller boots.
In this section, you'll have more fun with registers. I won't do any initialization and you'll have
to initialize and configure `GPIOE` pins as digital outputs pins so that you'll be able to drive LEDs
again.
This is the starter code.
``` rust
{{#include src/main.rs}}
```
If you run the starter code, you'll see that nothing happens this time. Furthermore, if you print
the `GPIOE` register block, you'll see that every register reads as zero even after the
`gpioe.odr.write` statement was executed!

# Configuration
After turning on the GPIOE peripheral, it still needs to be configured. In this case, we
want the pins to be configured as digital *outputs* so they can drive the LEDs; by default, most
pins are configured as digital *inputs*.
You can find the list of registers in the `GPIOE` register block in:
> Section 11.4.12 - GPIO registers - Page 243 - Reference Manual
The register we'll have to deal with is: `MODER`.
Your task for this section is to further update the starter code to configure the *right* `GPIOE`
pins as digital outputs. You'll have to:
- Figure out *which* pins you need to configure as digital outputs. (hint: check Section 6.4 LEDs of
the *User Manual* (page 18)).
- Read the documentation to understand what the bits in the `MODER` register do.
- Modify the `MODER` register to configure the pins as digital outputs.
If successful, you'll see the 8 LEDs turn on when you run the program.

# Power
Turns out that, to save power, most peripherals start in a powered off state -- that's their state
right after the microcontroller boots.
The Reset and Clock Control (`RCC`) peripheral can be used to power on or off every other
peripheral.
You can find the list of registers in the `RCC` register block in:
> Section 9.4.14 - RCC register map - Page 166 - Reference Manual
The registers that control the power status of other peripherals are:
- `AHBENR`
- `APB1ENR`
- `APB2ENR`
Each bit in these registers controls the power status of a single peripheral, including `GPIOE`.
Your task in this section is to power on the `GPIOE` peripheral. You'll have to:
- Figure out which of the three registers I mentioned before has the bit that controls the power
status.
- Figure out what value that bit must be set to,`0` or `1`, to power on the `GPIOE` peripheral.
- Finally, you'll have to change the starter code to *modify* the right register to turn on the
`GPIOE` peripheral.
If you are successful, you'll see that the `gpioe.odr.write` statement will now be able to modify
the value of the `ODR` register.
Note that this won't be enough to actually turn on the LEDs.

# Busy waiting
The timer should now be properly initialized. All that's left is to implement the `delay` function
using the timer.
First thing we have to do is set the autoreload register (`ARR`) to make the timer go off in `ms`
milliseconds. Because the counter operates at 1 KHz, the autoreload value will be the same as `ms`.
``` rust
// Set the timer to go off in `ms` ticks
// 1 tick = 1 ms
tim6.arr.write(|w| w.arr().bits(ms));
```
Next, we need to enable the counter. It will immediately start counting.
``` rust
// CEN: Enable the counter
tim6.cr1.modify(|_, w| w.cen().set_bit());
```
Now we need to wait until the counter reaches the value of the autoreload register, `ms`, then we'll
know that `ms` milliseconds have passed. That condition is known as an *update event* and its
indicated by the `UIF` bit of the status register (`SR`).
``` rust
// Wait until the alarm goes off (until the update event occurs)
while !tim6.sr.read().uif().bit_is_set() {}
```
This pattern of just waiting until some condition is met, in this case that `UIF` becomes `1`, is
known as *busy waiting* and you'll see it a few more times in this text `:-)`.
Finally, we must clear (set to `0`) this `UIF` bit. If we don't, next time we enter the `delay`
function we'll think the update event has already happened and skip over the busy waiting part.
``` rust
// Clear the update event flag
tim6.sr.modify(|_, w| w.uif().clear_bit());
```
Now, put this all together and check if it works as expected.

# `for` loop delays
The first challenge is to implement the `delay` function without using any peripheral and the
obvious solution is to implement it as a `for` loop delay:
``` rust
#[inline(never)]
fn delay(tim6: &tim6::RegisterBlock, ms: u16) {
for _ in 0..1_000 {}
}
```
Of course, the above implementation is wrong because it always generates the same delay for any
value of `ms`.
In this section, you'll have to:
- Fix the `delay` function to generate delays proportional to its input `ms`.
- Tweak the `delay` function to make the LED roulette spin at a rate of approximately 5 cycles in 4
seconds (800 milliseconds period).
- The processor inside the microcontroller is clocked at 72 MHz and executes most instructions in one
"tick", a cycle of its clock. How many (`for`) loops do you *think* the `delay` function must do
to generate a delay of 1 second?
- How many `for` loops does `delay(1000)` actually do?
- What happens if compile your program in release mode and run it?

# Initialization
As with every other peripheral, we'll have to initialize this timer before we can use it. And just
as in the previous section, initialization is going to involve two steps: powering up the timer and
then configuring it.
Powering up the timer is easy: We just have to set `TIM6EN` bit to 1. This bit is in the `APB1ENR`
register of the `RCC` register block.
``` rust
// Power on the TIM6 timer
rcc.apb1enr.modify(|_, w| w.tim6en().set_bit());
```
The configuration part is slightly more elaborate.
First, we'll have to configure the timer to operate in one pulse mode.
``` rust
// OPM Select one pulse mode
// CEN Keep the counter disabled for now
tim6.cr1.write(|w| w.opm().set_bit().cen().clear_bit());
```
Then, we'll like to have the `CNT` counter operate at a frequency of 1 KHz because our `delay`
function takes a number of milliseconds as arguments and 1 KHz produces a 1 millisecond period. For
that we'll have to configure the prescaler.
``` rust
// Configure the prescaler to have the counter operate at 1 KHz
tim6.psc.write(|w| w.psc().bits(psc));
```
I'm going to let you figure out the value of the prescaler, `psc`. Remember that the frequency of
the counter is `apb1 / (psc + 1)` and that `apb1` is 8 MHz.

# NOP
If in the previous section you compiled the program in release mode and actually looked at the
disassembly, you probably noticed that the `delay` function is optimized away and never gets called
from within `main`.
LLVM decided that the function wasn't doing anything worthwhile and just removed it.
There is a way to prevent LLVM from optimizing the `for` loop delay: add a *volatile* assembly
instruction. Any instruction will do but NOP (No OPeration) is a particular good choice in this case
because it has no side effect.
Your `for` loop delay would become:
``` rust
#[inline(never)]
fn delay(_tim6: &tim6::RegisterBlock, ms: u16) {
const K: u16 = 3; // this value needs to be tweaked
for _ in 0..(K * ms) {
aux9::nop()
}
}
```
And this time `delay` won't be compiled away by LLVM when you compile your program in release mode:
``` console
$ cargo objdump --bin clocks-and-timers --release -- -d --no-show-raw-insn
clocks-and-timers: file format ELF32-arm-little
Disassembly of section .text:
clocks_and_timers::delay::h711ce9bd68a6328f:
8000188: push {r4, r5, r7, lr}
800018a: movs r4, #0
800018c: adds r4, #1
800018e: uxth r5, r4
8000190: bl #4666
8000194: cmp r5, #150

8000198: pop {r4, r5, r7, pc}
```
Now, test this: Compile the program in debug mode and run it, then compile the program in release
mode and run it. What's the difference between them? What do you think is the main cause of the
difference? Can you think of a way to make them equivalent or at least more similar again?

# One-shot timer
I hope that, by now, I have convinced you that `for` loop delays are a poor way to implement delays.
Now, we'll implement delays using a *hardware timer*. The basic function of a (hardware) timer is
... to keep precise track of time. A timer is yet another peripheral that's available to the
microcontroller; thus it can be controlled using registers.
The microcontroller we are using has several (in fact, more than 10) timers of different kinds
(basic, general purpose, and advanced timers) available to it. Some timers have more *resolution*
(number of bits) than others and some can be used for more than just keeping track of time.
We'll be using one of the *basic* timers: `TIM6`. This is one of the simplest timers available in
our microcontroller. The documentation for basic timers is in the following section:
> Section 22 Timers - Page 670 - Reference Manual
Its registers are documented in:
> Section 22.4.9 TIM6/TIM7 register map - Page 682 - Reference Manual
The registers we'll be using in this section are:
- `SR`, the status register.
- `EGR`, the event generation register.
- `CNT`, the counter register.
- `PSC`, the prescaler register.
- `ARR`, the autoreload register.
We'll be using the timer as a *one-shot* timer. It will sort of work like an alarm clock. We'll set
the timer to go off after some amount of time and then we'll wait until the timer goes off. The
documentation refers to this mode of operation as *one pulse mode*.
Here's a description of how a basic timer works when configured in one pulse mode:
- The counter is enabled by the user (`CR1.CEN = 1`).
- The `CNT` register resets its value to zero and, on each tick, its value gets incremented by one.
- Once the `CNT` register has reached the value of the `ARR` register, the counter will be disabled
by hardware (`CR1.CEN = 0`) and an *update event* will be raised (`SR.UIF = 1`).
`TIM6` is driven by the APB1 clock, whose frequency doesn't have to necessarily match the processor
frequency. That is, the APB1 clock could be running faster or slower. The default, however, is that
both APB1 and the processor are clocked at 8 MHz.
The tick mentioned in the functional description of the one pulse mode is *not* the same as one
tick of the APB1 clock. The `CNT` register increases at a frequency of `apb1 / (psc + 1)`
times per second, where `apb1` is the frequency of the APB1 clock and `psc` is the value of the
prescaler register, `PSC`.

# Serial communication
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Serial_port.jpg">
<p align="center">
<img height="240" title="Standard serial port connector DE-9" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ea/Serial_port.jpg/800px-Serial_port.jpg">
</p>
</a>
<p align="center">
<em>This is what we'll be using. I hope your computer has one!</em>
</p>
Nah, don't worry. This connector, the DE-9, went out of fashion on PCs quite some time ago; it got
replaced by the Universal Serial Bus (USB). We won't be dealing with the DE-9 connector itself but
with the communication protocol that this cable is/was usually used for.
So what's this [*serial communication*][ASC]? It's an *asynchronous* communication protocol where two
devices exchange data *serially*, as in one bit at a time, using two data lines (plus a common
ground). The protocol is asynchronous in the sense that neither of the shared lines carries a clock
signal. Instead both parties must agree on how fast data will be sent along the wire *before* the
communication occurs. This protocol allows *duplex* communication as data can be sent from A to B
and from B to A simultaneously.
We'll be using this protocol to exchange data between the microcontroller and your computer. In
contrast to the ITM protocol we have used before, with the serial communication protocol you can
send data from your computer to the microcontroller.
The next practical question you probably want to ask is: How fast can we send data through this
protocol?
This protocol works with frames. Each frame has one *start* bit, 5 to 9 bits of payload (data) and 1
to 2 *stop bits*. The speed of the protocol is known as *baud rate* and it's quoted in bits per
second (bps). Common baud rates are: 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600 and 115200 bps.
To actually answer the question: With a common configuration of 1 start bit, 8 bits of data, 1
stop bit and a baud rate of 115200 bps one can, in theory, send 11,520 frames per second. Since each
one frame carries a byte of data that results in a data rate of 11.52 KB/s. In practice, the data
rate will probably be lower because of processing times on the slower side of the communication (the
microcontroller).
Today's computers don't support the serial communication protocol. So you can't directly connect
your computer to the microcontroller. But that's where the serial module comes in. This module will
sit between the two and expose a serial interface to the microcontroller and an USB interface to
your computer. The microcontroller will see your computer as another serial device and your computer
will see the microcontroller as a virtual serial device.
Now, let's get familiar with the serial module and the serial communication tools that your OS
offers. Pick a route:
- [\*nix](nix-tooling.md)
- [Windows](windows-tooling.md)

# Loopbacks
We've tested sending data. It's time to test receiving it. Except that there's no other device that
can send us some data ... or is there?
Enter: loopbacks
<p align="center">
<img title="Serial module loopback" src="../assets/serial-loopback.png">
</p>
You can send data to yourself! Not very useful in production but very useful for debugging.
## Older board revision / external serial module
Connect the `TXO` and the `RXI` pins of the serial module together using a male to male jumper wire
as shown above.
Now enter some text into minicom/PuTTY and observe. What happens?
You should see three things:
- As before, the TX (red) LED blinks on each key press.
- But now the RX (green) LED blinks on each key press as well! This indicates that the serial module
is receiving some data; the one it just sent.
- Finally, on the minicom/PuTTY console, you should see that what you type echoes back to the
console.
## Newer board revision
If you have a newer revision of the board you can set up a loopback by shorting
the PC4 and PC5 pins using a female to female jumper wire, like [you did for the
SWO pin](../06-hello-world/index.html).
You should now be able to send data to yourself.
Now try to enter some text into minicom/PuTTY and observe.
> **NOTE**: To rule out the possibility of the existing firmware doing weird
> things to the serial pins (PC4 and PC5) we recommend *holding* the reset
> button while you enter text into minicom/PuTTY.
If all is working you should see what you type echoed back to minicom/PuTTY
console.
---
Now that you are familiar with sending and receiving data over serial port using minicom/PuTTY,
let's make your microcontroller and your computer talk!

## Newer revisions of the discovery board
With newer revisions, if you connect the discovery board to your computer you
should see a new TTY device appear in `/dev`.
``` console
$ # Linux
$ dmesg | tail | grep -i tty
[13560.675310] cdc_acm 1-1.1:1.2: ttyACM0: USB ACM device
```
This is the USB <-> Serial device. On Linux, it's named `tty*` (usually
`ttyACM*` or `ttyUSB*`).
If you don't see the device appear then you probably have an older revision of
the board; check the next section, which contains instructions for older
revisions. If you do have a newer revision skip the next section and move to the
"minicom" section.
## Older revisions of the discovery board / external serial module
Connect the serial module to your computer and let's find out what name the OS assigned to it.
> **NOTE** On macs, the USB device will named like this: `/dev/cu.usbserial-*`. You won't
> find it using `dmesg`, instead use `ls -l /dev | grep cu.usb` and adjust the following
> commands accordingly!
``` console
$ dmesg | grep -i tty
(..)
[ +0.000155] usb 3-2: FTDI USB Serial Device converter now attached to ttyUSB0
```
But what's this `ttyUSB0` thing? It's a file of course! Everything is a file in \*nix:
``` console
$ ls -l /dev/ttyUSB0
crw-rw-rw- 1 root uucp 188, 0 Oct 27 00:00 /dev/ttyUSB0
```
> **NOTE** if the permissions above is `crw-rw----`, the udev rules have not been set correctly
> see [udev rules](../03-setup/linux.html#udev-rules)
You can send out data by simply writing to this file:
``` console
$ echo 'Hello, world!' > /dev/ttyUSB0
```
You should see the TX (red) LED on the serial module blink, just once and very fast!
## All revisions: minicom
Dealing with serial devices using `echo` is far from ergonomic. So, we'll use the program `minicom`
to interact with the serial device using the keyboard.
We must configure `minicom` before we use it. There are quite a few ways to do that but we'll use a
`.minirc.dfl` file in the home directory. Create a file in `~/.minirc.dfl` with the following
contents:
``` console
$ cat ~/.minirc.dfl
pu baudrate 115200
pu bits 8
pu parity N
pu stopbits 1
pu rtscts No
pu xonxoff No
```
> **NOTE** Make sure this file ends in a newline! Otherwise, `minicom` will fail to read it.
That file should be straightforward to read (except for the last two lines), but nonetheless let's
go over it line by line:
- `pu baudrate 115200`. Sets baud rate to 115200 bps.
- `pu bits 8`. 8 bits per frame.
- `pu parity N`. No parity check.
- `pu stopbits 1`. 1 stop bit.
- `pu rtscts No`. No hardware control flow.
- `pu xonxoff No`. No software control flow.
Once that's in place, we can launch `minicom`.
``` console
$ # NOTE you may need to use a different device here
$ minicom -D /dev/ttyACM0 -b 115200
```
This tells `minicom` to open the serial device at `/dev/ttyACM0` and set its
baud rate to 115200. A text-based user interface (TUI) will pop out.
<p align="center">
<img title="minicom" src="../assets/minicom.png">
</p>
You can now send data using the keyboard! Go ahead and type something. Note that
the TUI will *not* echo back what you type but, if you are using an external
module, you *may* see some LED on the module blink with each keystroke.
## `minicom` commands
`minicom` exposes commands via keyboard shortcuts. On Linux, the shortcuts start with `Ctrl+A`. On
mac, the shortcuts start with the `Meta` key. Some useful commands below:
- `Ctrl+A` + `Z`. Minicom Command Summary
- `Ctrl+A` + `C`. Clear the screen
- `Ctrl+A` + `X`. Exit and reset
- `Ctrl+A` + `Q`. Quit with no reset
> **NOTE** mac users: In the above commands, replace `Ctrl+A` with `Meta`.

# Windows tooling
Start by unplugging your discovery board.
Before plugging the discovery board or the serial module, run the following command on
the terminal:
``` console
$ mode
```
It will print a list of devices that are connected to your computer. The ones that start with `COM` in
their names are serial devices. This is the kind of device we'll be working with. Take note of all
the `COM` *ports* `mode` outputs *before* plugging the serial module.
Now, plug the discovery board and run the `mode` command again. If you see a new
`COM` port appear on the list then you have a newer revision of the discovery
and that's the COM port assigned to the serial functionality on the discovery.
You can skip the next paragraph.
If you didn't get a new COM port then you probably have an older revision of the
discovery. Now plug the serial module; you should see new COM port appear;
that's the COM port of the serial module.
Now launch `putty`. A GUI will pop out.
<p align="center">
<img title="PuTTY settings" src="../assets/putty-session-choose-serial.png">
</p>
On the starter screen, which should have the "Session" category open, pick "Serial" as the
"Connection type". On the "Serial line" field enter the `COM` device you got on the previous step,
for example `COM3`.
<p align="center">
<img title="PuTTY settings" src="../assets/putty-settings.png">
</p>
Next, pick the "Connection/Serial" category from the menu on the left. On this new view, make sure
that the serial port is configured as follows:
- "Speed (baud)": 115200
- "Data bits": 8
- "Stop bits": 1
- "Parity": None
- "Flow control": None
Finally, click the Open button. A console will show up now:
<p align="center">
<img title="PuTTY console" src="../assets/putty-console.png">
</p>
If you type on this console, the TX (red) LED on the Serial module should blink. Each key stroke
should make the LED blink once. Note that the console won't echo back what you type so the screen
will remain blank.

# USART
The microcontroller has a peripheral called USART, which stands for Universal
Synchronous/Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter. This peripheral can be configured to work with
several communication protocols like the serial communication protocol.
Throughout this chapter, we'll use serial communication to exchange information between the
microcontroller and your computer. But before we do that we have to wire up everything.
I mentioned before that this protocol involves two data lines: TX and RX. TX stands for transmitter
and RX stands for receiver. Transmitter and receiver are relative terms though; which line is the
transmitter and which line is the receiver depends from which side of the communication you are
looking at the lines.
### Newer board revisions
If you have a newer revision of the board and are using the on-board USB <->
Serial functionality then the `auxiliary` crate will set pin `PC4` as the TX
line and pin `PC5` as the RX line.
If you had previously connected the PC4 and PC4 pins in order to test the [loopback functionality](../10-serial-communication/loopbacks.md) in the previous section,
make sure to remove that wire, or the upcoming serial communication will fail silently.
Everything is already wired on the board so you don't need to wire anything yourself.
You can move on to the [next section](send-a-single-byte.html).
### Older board revisions / external serial module
If you are using an external USB <-> Serial module then you will **need** to
enable the `adapter` feature of the `aux11` crate dependency in `Cargo.toml`.
``` toml
[dependencies.aux11]
path = "auxiliary"
# enable this if you are going to use an external serial adapter
features = ["adapter"] # <- uncomment this
```
We'll be using the pin `PA9` as the microcontroller's TX line and `PA10` as its RX line. In other
words, the pin `PA9` outputs data onto its wire whereas the pin `PA10` listens for data on its
wire.
We could have used a different pair of pins as the TX and RX pins. There's a table in page 44 of the
[Data Sheet] that list all the other possible pins we could have used.
[Data Sheet]: http://www.st.com/resource/en/datasheet/stm32f303vc.pdf
The serial module also has TX and RX pins. We'll have to *cross* these pins: that is connect the
microcontroller's TX pin to the serial module's RX pin and the micro's RX pin to the serial module's
TX pin. The wiring diagram below shows all the necessary connections.
<p align="center">
<img height=640 title="F3 <-> Serial connection" src="../assets/f3-serial.png">
</p>
These are the recommended steps to connect the microcontroller and the serial module:
- Close OpenOCD and `itmdump`
- Disconnect the USB cables from the F3 and the serial module.
- Connect one of F3 GND pins to the GND pin of the serial module using a female to male (F/M) wire.
Preferably, a black one.
- Connect the PA9 pin on the back of the F3 to the RXI pin of the serial module using a F/M wire.
- Connect the PA10 pin on the back of the F3 to the TXO pin of the serial module using a F/M wire.
- Now connect the USB cable to the F3.
- Finally connect the USB cable to the Serial module.
- Re-launch OpenOCD and `itmdump`
Everything's wired up! Let's proceed to send data back and forth.

# Overruns
If you wrote your program like this:
``` rust
{{#include examples/buffer-overrun.rs}}
```
You probably received something like this on your computer when you executed the program compiled in
debug mode.
``` console
$ # minicom's terminal
(..)
The uic brwn oxjums oer helaz do.
```
And if you compiled in release mode, you probably only got something like this:
``` console
$ # minicom's terminal
(..)
T
```
What went wrong?
You see, sending bytes over the wire takes a relatively large amount of time. I already did the math
so let me quote myself:
> With a common configuration of 1 start bit, 8 bits of data, 1 stop bit and a baud rate of 115200
> bps one can, in theory, send 11,520 frames per second. Since each one frame carries a byte of data
> that results in a data rate of 11.52 KB/s
Our pangram has a length of 45 bytes. That means it's going to take, at least, 3,900 microseconds
(`45 bytes / (11,520 bytes/s) = 3,906 us`) to send the string. The processor is working at 8 MHz,
where executing an instruction takes 125 nanoseconds, so it's likely going to be done with the `for`
loop in less than 3,900 microseconds.
We can actually time how long it takes to execute the `for` loop. `aux11::init()` returns a
`MonoTimer` (monotonic timer) value that exposes an `Instant` API that's similar to the one in
`std::time`.
``` rust
{{#include examples/buffer-overrun-timed.rs}}
```
In debug mode, I get:
``` console
$ # itmdump terminal
(..)
`for` loop took 22415 ticks (2801.875 us)
```
This is less than 3,900 microseconds but it's not that far off and that's why only a few bytes of
information are lost.
In conclusion, the processor is trying to send bytes at a faster rate than what the hardware can
actually handle and this results in data loss. This condition is known as buffer *overrun*.
How do we avoid this? The status register (`ISR`) has a flag, `TXE`, that indicates if it's "safe"
to write to the `TDR` register without incurring in data loss.
Let's use that to slowdown the processor.
``` rust
{{#include examples/buffer-overrun-txe.rs}}
```
This time, running the program in debug or release mode should result in a complete string on the
receiving side.
``` console
$ # minicom/PuTTY's console
(..)
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
```
The timing of the `for` loop should be closer to the theoretical 3,900 microseconds as well. The
timing below is for the debug version.
``` console
$ # itmdump terminal
(..)
`for` loop took 30499 ticks (3812.375 us)
```

# Echo server
Let's merge transmission and reception into a single program and write an echo server. An echo
server sends back to the client the same text it sent. For this application, the microcontroller
will be the server and you and your computer will be the client.
This should be straightforward to implement. (hint: do it byte by byte)
