6. Release change notification

OpenSTLinux attention points to switch from ecosystem release v5.0.0 to ecosystem release v5.1.0 are documented in STM32 MPU OpenSTLinux release changes notification – v5.1.0 article.

7. Recommendations for use

7.1. Safe use

• Flash programming and boot from all supported flash devices: SD card, eMMC, ONFI NAND and NOR flash memories.
• Develop Linux^® applications, libraries, kernel modules based on OpenSTLinux delivery.
• Develop coprocessor Cube applications based on STM32CubeMP1 and STM32CubeMP2 deliveries.
• Develop boards based on STM32MP1 series and STM32MP25x lines .
• Prototype applications based on ST boards.

7.2. Non-recommended use

• None

8. Restrictions

STM32MP25x lines 

• dcmipp-isp-ctrl tool will fail whenever DCMIPP auxiliary pipe only is used for camera capture (need to enable DCMIPP main pipe).

STM32MP1 series

• The partition layout always keeps the Firmware Update related partitions even if machine feature fw-update is disabled. To optimize the partition layout without Firmware Update feature, modifications are needed on flashlayout file generation and also on U-Boot source code in case of MTD partitions (storage mapping is hardcoded for MTD partitions, see How_to_configure_U-Boot_for_your_board#MTD_partitions)
• STM32MP15x lines : Issue to boot with SPI-Nand: patches to be upstreamed on GitHub

9. Minor release updates

STMicroelectronics regularly delivers corrections through github^® components which are U-Boot , OP-TEE , TF-A , Linux kernel .

The corrections can be incorporated into the STM32MPU Developer Package or Distribution Package (see below).

Two possibilities exist to update a Distribution Package:

• Update your existing Distribution Package:

Switch your Distribution Package to # github^® mode .

1. Use the devtool modify <recipe name> command to set up an environment. It fetches and unpacks the source code.
2. In the extracted source code, use a git command such as git checkout -b WORK <github^® TAG> to point to a new revision of the component.

More rarely, STMicroelectronics also delivers fixes on layers through github^®. These changes can be integrated (via git commands: git checkout -b WORK <github^® commit SHA1>) into the local STM32MPU Distribution Package environment. See below the github^® links of the quoted layers :

• meta-st-stm32mp
• meta-st-openstlinux
• meta-st-stm32mp-addons

• Get a new Distribution Package:

Refer to Installing_the_OpenSTLinux_distribution page for installing instructions, and use the repo command given for the minor version below, if it exists.
