## STM32C5
1784+
1785+
The STM32C5 family (for example the STM32C5A3ZGT6 on NUCLEO-C5A3ZG) is
1786+
a mainstream Cortex-M33 part **without TrustZone**, so the port is
1787+
single-image only (no `-tz` or `-ns` variants). On the -ZG variant:
1788+
1 MB internal flash, 256 KB SRAM, 8 KB pages, **128-bit (quad-word)
1789+
flash write quantum** with per-quad-word ECC.
1790+
1791+
The HAL writes flash in 16-byte aligned quad-words. When wolfBoot
1792+
asks for a smaller or unaligned write, the HAL reads the surrounding
1793+
flash and merges so each programmed quad-word is a complete ECC
1794+
block - sub-quad-word writes leave ECC undefined and reads come back
1795+
with bit-flipped "corrected" data.
1796+
1797+
### Flash layout (stm32c5.config)
1798+
1799+
Dual-bank flash (2 x 512 KB, 8 KB pages). Bank 1 holds wolfBoot +
1800+
BOOT, bank 2 holds UPDATE + SWAP:
1801+
1802+
```
1803+
Bank 1:
1804+
0x08000000 - 0x0800FFFF wolfBoot bootloader (64 KB)
1805+
0x08010000 - 0x0807FFFF BOOT partition (0x70000, 448 KB)
1806+
Bank 2:
1807+
0x08080000 - 0x080EFFFF UPDATE partition (0x70000, 448 KB)
1808+
0x080F0000 - 0x080F1FFF SWAP sector (8 KB)
1809+
```
1810+
1811+
### Clock and UART
1812+
1813+
The reset SYSCLK is **HSIDIV3 = HSIS / 3 = 16 MHz** (RCC_CFGR1.SW=0
1814+
selects HSIDIV3, RCC_CR1 reset value 0x22 = HSIDIV3ON | HSIDIV3RDY).
1815+
wolfBoot brings SYSCLK to **144 MHz HCLK** in `clock_psi_on()` (called
1816+
from `hal_init()`) via the
1817+
PSIS clock chain (HSE 48 MHz reference -> PSI ref=48 MHz / out=144 MHz
1818+
-> PSIS), with all bus prescalers /1 (PCLK1 = PCLK2 = PCLK3 = 144 MHz),
1819+
flash 4 wait states and WRHIGHFREQ programming delay = 2.
1820+
1821+
By default (`WOLFBOOT_RESTORE_CLOCK` set in `options.mk`),
1822+
`hal_prepare_boot()` switches SYSCLK back to HSIDIV3 before handoff
1823+
but **leaves PSIS, PSI and HSE running**. The loaded firmware's own
1824+
`clock_psi_on()` then just pushes SYSCLK back from HSIDIV3 to PSIS -
1825+
the HSE/PSI configuration it would have written is already in place,
1826+
so it skips the HSE startup wait and the PSI reconfiguration entirely.
1827+
This mirrors ST's `HAL_RCC_ResetSystemClock()` (the lightweight
1828+
restore) rather than the full `HAL_RCC_Reset()`. Disabling HSE in
1829+
`hal_prepare_boot()` and forcing the loaded firmware to re-enable it
1830+
on a back-to-back cycle is not reliable on this part; the lightweight
1831+
restore avoids that path entirely. Pass `WOLFBOOT_RESTORE_CLOCK=0`
1832+
to skip the SYSCLK switch entirely and inherit PSIS @ 144 MHz directly.
1833+
1834+
UART is always available in the test-app and enabled in wolfBoot via
1835+
`DEBUG_UART=1` (on by default in the example config). USART2_BRR is
1836+
computed for PCLK1 = 144 MHz. The NUCLEO-C5A3ZG ST-LINK virtual COM
1837+
port is wired to MCU pins 36/37 (PA2/PA3) - **USART2** on AF7, 115200
1838+
8N1, **not USART1 on PA9/PA10** (PA9/PA10 only reach the Arduino
1839+
headers).
1840+
1841+
### Building
1842+
1843+
```sh
1844+
cp config/examples/stm32c5.config .config
1845+
make clean
1846+
make
1847+
```
1848+
1849+
Default signing scheme is ECC256 + SHA256. Produces `wolfboot.bin`
1850+
(~25 KB), `test-app/image_v1_signed.bin`, and `factory.bin` (BL +
1851+
signed v1).
1852+
1853+
### Flashing
1854+
1855+
Use `STM32_Programmer_CLI` (from STM32CubeIDE or STM32CubeProgrammer
1856+
v2.22+). pyocd has no STM32C5 target as of this writing. The C5
1857+
debug access port is AP2; `mode=UR` (under-reset) is the most
1858+
reliable connect mode while a previous image is running.
1859+
1860+
```sh
1861+
STM32_Programmer_CLI -c port=swd mode=UR -e all \
1862+
-d factory.bin 0x08000000 -v -rst
1863+
```
1864+
1865+
The test app blinks LD2 (PG1, **active low**): five slow blinks on
1866+
v1 then it triggers an update and resets; v2 blinks fast forever
1867+
once `wolfBoot_success()` is acknowledged.
1868+
1869+
### Testing an Update
1870+
1871+
Sign the test application as version 2 and flash it directly to the
1872+
update partition:
1873+
1874+
```sh
1875+
./tools/keytools/sign --ecc256 --sha256 \
1876+
test-app/image.bin wolfboot_signing_private_key.der 2
1877+
STM32_Programmer_CLI -c port=swd mode=UR \
1878+
-d test-app/image_v2_signed.bin 0x08080000 -v -rst
1879+
```
1880+
1881+
On reset wolfBoot detects the staged v2, the v1 test-app calls
1882+
`wolfBoot_update_trigger()` after its blink sequence and resets,
1883+
wolfBoot performs the bank-to-bank swap, and v2 boots. With
1884+
`DEBUG_UART=1` the UART log shows:
1885+
1886+
```
1887+
Booting version: 0x1
1888+
TEST APP / App version: 1 / triggering update -> reset
1889+
... swap output ...
1890+
Booting version: 0x2
1891+
TEST APP / App version: 2 / update OK -- success confirmed
1892+
```
1893+
1894+
### DUALBANK_SWAP variant
1895+
1896+
`config/examples/stm32c5-dualbank.config` builds wolfBoot with
1897+
`DUALBANK_SWAP=1`, using the STM32C5's `FLASH_OPTCR.SWAP_BANK`
1898+
option byte (bit 31) to flip which physical bank is mapped at
1899+
`0x08000000`. This replaces the copy-based swap with a single
1900+
option-byte toggle and a system reset - much faster, no swap
1901+
sector required.
1902+
1903+
Layout:
1904+
1905+
```
1906+
Bank 1 (active by default):
1907+
0x08000000 wolfBoot (64 KB)
1908+
0x08010000 BOOT partition (448 KB)
1909+
Bank 2 (active after SWAP_BANK toggle):
1910+
0x08080000 wolfBoot copy (64 KB)
1911+
0x08090000 UPDATE partition (448 KB)
1912+
```
1913+
1914+
`hal_init()` runs `fork_bootloader()` on the first boot, comparing
1915+
the contents of bank 1 and bank 2 and copying wolfBoot from bank 1
1916+
into bank 2 if they differ. This guarantees the chip can boot from
1917+
`0x08000000` regardless of which physical bank `SWAP_BANK` currently
1918+
maps there. Subsequent boots are no-ops because the two copies match.
1919+
1920+
Build, flash, and stage v2 are the same as the default config except
1921+
the UPDATE partition lives at `0x08090000`:
1922+
1923+
```sh
1924+
cp config/examples/stm32c5-dualbank.config .config
1925+
make distclean && make
1926+
STM32_Programmer_CLI -c port=swd mode=UR -e all \
1927+
-d factory.bin 0x08000000 -v -rst
1928+
./tools/keytools/sign --ecc256 --sha256 \
1929+
test-app/image.bin wolfboot_signing_private_key.der 2
1930+
STM32_Programmer_CLI -c port=swd mode=UR \
1931+
-d test-app/image_v2_signed.bin 0x08090000 -v -rst
1932+
```
1933+
1934+
After the swap completes the partition addresses stay the same from
1935+
software's perspective (`WOLFBOOT_PARTITION_BOOT_ADDRESS = 0x08010000`
1936+
keeps pointing at "current BOOT") - only the underlying bank is
1937+
different. Subsequent updates stage at `0x08090000` again.
1938+
1939+
### TrustZone (TZEN) is not supported
1940+
1941+
The STM32C5 silicon does not implement the ARMv8-M Security Extensions
1942+
(`__SAUREGION_PRESENT 0U` in the CMSIS device header) and has no
1943+
GTZC, no `FLASH_NS_*` / `FLASH_SECCR*` aliases, and no secure
1944+
peripheral address space. wolfBoot's TrustZone ports (L5, U5, H5)
1945+
cannot be ported to the C5 - the hardware needed to partition memory
1946+
and peripherals into secure / non-secure worlds is absent. For
1947+
application security on the C5 use the MPU (`__MPU_PRESENT 1U`) and
1948+
flash RDP (Read Out Protection); both are wolfBoot-orthogonal.
1949+
