Important

The OPC UA, subject of this article, is not part of STM32MPU ecosystem releases, for which ST provides some support. This article only provides, as example, some helper guidelines (tips): you may need to make some adaptations depending on your system setup.

This stage explains how to properly install a library to use it on STM32MP1 boards.

1. Overview

Refer to the OPC UA overview for more details about this communication protocol.

2. Installation process

This section gives an overview of how to get the open62541 library for STM32MP1.

2.1. Install the SDK

• If the SDK is not yet installed, refer to STM32MP1_Developer_Package#Installing_the_SDK chapter before going further. It is essential later to cross-compile the library.

2.2. Create a new project

It is not required to follow this step, however this tutorial is based on a fake project to give an example of how to proceed.

• Create a directory to host the source codes

 mkdir $HOME/Documents/OPC_UA_first_project
 mkdir $HOME/Documents/OPC_UA_first_project/src

• Create a directory to host the library and go to it

 mkdir $HOME/Documents/OPC_UA_first_project/lib
 cd $HOME/Documents/OPC_UA_first_project/lib

2.3. Clone open62541 git repository

• Clone the repository needed to compile the library (git commands must be enable on your Linux):

 git clone https://github.com/open62541/open62541.git
 cd open62541
 git submodule update --init --recursive
 mkdir build && cd build

2.4. Cross-building the library

The SDK is useful as it builds a library usable with ARM binaries to execute the code on the cortex A7 of STM32MP1.

• Source the shell to cross compile with the SDK:

 source <path_to_SDK>/environment-setup-cortexa7t2hf-neon-vfpv4-ostl-linux-gnueabi

• To make sure that your source succeeds try "echo $CROSS_COMPILE" to get the following answer:

 echo $CROSS_COMPILE
arm-ostl-linux-gnueabi-

Warning

Be careful, your source operation is only available in this shell window

• To cross compile the library use the cmake command. All compilation flags can be found here on the official documentation of open62541. The main ones have been chosen in this example to make both Client/Server and PubSub communication.

 cmake -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=MinSizeRel -DUA_ENABLE_PUBSUB=ON  -DUA_ENABLE_PUBSUB_ETH_UADP=ON -DUA_NAMESPACE_ZERO=MINIMAL UA_ENABLE_STATUSCODE_DESCRIPTIONS=OFF UA_ENABLE_TYPEDESCRIPTION=OFF UA_LOGLEVEL=200 ..
 make

• The library is now built and put into the bin folder. Check it here:

 ls bin/
libopen62541.a

• To be sure that the library is well cross-compiled, enter the following command:

 readelf -a bin/libopen62541.a

Many R_ARM notices are displayed with at the end, the following returns:

File Attributes
 Tag_CPU_name: "Cortex-A7"
 Tag_CPU_arch: v7
 Tag_CPU_arch_profile: Application

Information

It is also possible to develop the OPC UA programs executable on your PC at a later stage (and then communicate with STM32MP1). However, this library cannot be used for x86 binaries, therefore the best way is to have another library which is not cross-compiled. The steps to follow are the same, just do not source your shell.

3. Building your first program

As similar to other libraries, the Makefile must be edited with the path information where to find open62541 library, headers etc. As a first program the example used here is given by open62541 team, which is a simple OPC UA Client .

• First, go to your src project folder

 cd $HOME/Documents/OPC_UA_first_project/src

• Create a new file called myServer.c whose content can be found here. Do not compile the code as it is done on the webpage.

#include <open62541/plugin/log_stdout.h>
#include <open62541/server.h>
#include <open62541/server_config_default.h>

#include <signal.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

static volatile UA_Boolean running = true;
static void stopHandler(int sig) {
    UA_LOG_INFO(UA_Log_Stdout, UA_LOGCATEGORY_USERLAND, "received ctrl-c");
    running = false;
}

int main(void) {
    signal(SIGINT, stopHandler);
    signal(SIGTERM, stopHandler);

    UA_Server *server = UA_Server_new();
    UA_ServerConfig_setDefault(UA_Server_getConfig(server));

    UA_StatusCode retval = UA_Server_run(server, &running);

    UA_Server_delete(server);
    return retval == UA_STATUSCODE_GOOD ? EXIT_SUCCESS : EXIT_FAILURE;
}

• Now create a new file called Makefile whose content is:

# Makefile template for OPC UA

PROG = myServer.bin

SRCS = myServer.c #you can add here your other .c files

OBJS = $(SRCS:%.c=%.o)

#the path of open62541 library
PATHLIB = -L ../lib/open62541/build/bin/

#the name of the library
LIB = open62541

#path of headers files
INCLUDE += -I ../lib/open62541/include/
INCLUDE += -I ../lib/open62541/plugins/include/
INCLUDE += -I ../lib/open62541/build/src_generated/
INCLUDE += -I ../lib/open62541/arch/
INCLUDE += -I ../lib/open62541/deps/
INCLUDE += -I ../lib/open62541/src/pubsub/

CLEANFILES = $(PROG)

# Add / change option in CFLAGS and LDFLAGS
CFLAGS += -Wall 
CFLAGS += $(INCLUDE)

LDFLAGS += $(PATHLIB) -l$(LIB)

all: $(PROG)

$(PROG): $(OBJS)
	$(CC) -o $@ $^ $(LDFLAGS)

clean:
	rm -f $(CLEANFILES) $(patsubst %.c,%.o, $(SRCS))

• Now build the program:

 make 

• The executable program appears in the folder:

 ls
Makefile  myServer.bin  myServer.c  myServer.o

4. Executing the program on STM32MP1

• Put myServer.bin on the board. This may be done in different ways, refer to How to cross-compile with the Developer Package part 9.3 for more information. In this case there is a simple way to do this:

 scp myServer.bin root@<IP of your board>:/usr/local

• Then open another shell and connect to the board in ssh:

 ssh root@<IP of your board>

• Go to the folder where the program is located and execute it:

 cd /usr/local
 ./myServer.bin

• Output similar appears:

[2021-01-14 09:41:22.659 (UTC+0100)] warn/server	AccessControl: Unconfigured AccessControl. Users have all permissions.
[2021-01-14 09:41:22.659 (UTC+0100)] info/server	AccessControl: Anonymous login is enabled
[2021-01-14 09:41:22.659 (UTC+0100)] warn/server	Username/Password configured, but no encrypting SecurityPolicy. This can leak 
credentials on the network.
[2021-01-14 09:41:22.659 (UTC+0100)] warn/userland	AcceptAll Certificate Verification. Any remote certificate will be accepted.
[2021-01-14 09:41:22.659 (UTC+0100)] info/network	TCP network layer listening on <TCP port> 

The first OPC UA program is now running on your board

5. Going further: make your first OPC UA Client/Server

As an example to illustrate this article, let's make an OPC UA Client/Server run on two different STM32MP1 (it can also be done with two shells on the PC, or two different PCs, or one PC and one board. Just make sure to have the right version of the library, cross-compiled or not, to do this). The two STM32MP1 are linked by Ethernet to the same network. The PC used for the development of the project is also in the same network (this helps to easily send the files by scp command later).

• Since two boards are used in this example, in order to not forget source the shell:

 source <path_to_SDK>/environment-setup-cortexa7t2hf-neon-vfpv4-ostl-linux-gnueabi

• Then create all the folders needed for this little project, with the library side:

 mkdir <your_project_path>/opc_ua_client_server && cd <your_project_path>/opc_ua_client_server
 mkdir lib && cd lib
 git clone https://github.com/open62541/open62541.git
 cd open62541
 git submodule update --init --recursive
 mkdir build && cd build
 cmake -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=MinSizeRel -DUA_ENABLE_PUBSUB=ON  -DUA_ENABLE_PUBSUB_ETH_UADP=ON -DUA_NAMESPACE_ZERO=MINIMAL UA_ENABLE_STATUSCODE_DESCRIPTIONS=OFF UA_ENABLE_TYPEDESCRIPTION=OFF UA_LOGLEVEL=200 ..
 make

• Now, with the source code side add:

 cd ../../..
 mkdir src && cd src

• Create a common file for both client and server common.h:

#ifndef COMMON_H
#define COMMON_H

const char * IP_SERVER = "10.48.0.23"; //the address needs to be the IP of your board which is your server (ifconfig)
const int PORT_SERVER = 12345; //choose your port for the server

#endif /* COMMON_H */

• Now create files for the server:

 mkdir server && cd server 

• Create myServer.c and Makefile

• Build the client part:

 make

• The binary myClient.bin is now cross-compiled and it can sent on the client STM32MP1 board.

 scp myClient.bin root@<IP of your client board>:/usr/local

Now, open a shell for both of your boards, and go to /usr/local/ folder, find binaries and execute them starting with the server.
