2.4 QEMU Simulation - Blinky
In the previous section, we have NOT run/test/debug the program yet. How to do that? Normally, there are 2 ways to test your code before flashing your code down to a chip.
Way 1: Test in a simulator, which simulates the STM32 chip
Way 2: Test on a real STM32 development board
In this section, we are going to talk about how to run/test/debug the program in the popular simulator QEMU.
2.4.1 QEMU Installation
Option 1: Official Installation
You can directly download QEMU's NEWEST release from its official website https://www.qemu.org.
Option 2: Ubuntu Repository
One command will do:
$ sudo apt install qemu
Option 3: Build from Source (Recommended)
This option is adopted in our case. Just strictly follow https://www.qemu.org/download/#source:
git clone git://git.qemu.org/qemu.git
cd qemu
git submodule init
git submodule update --recursive
mkdir build
cd build
../configure
make -j4
Option 4: GNU MCU Eclipse QEMU (Our Way)
Since in our course, we are using GNU MCU Eclipse Plugin, we also use its own QEMU simulator, from where we should be able to find its releases on Github. However, its NEWEST release is v2.8.0-20170301, which is quite OLD. According to GNU MCU Eclipse QEMU, its current supported boards and MCUs:
Supported Boards:
Maple - LeafLab Arduino-style STM32 microcontroller board
NUCLEO-F103RB - ST Nucleo Development Board for STM32 F1 series
NetduinoGo - Netduino GoBus Development Board with STM32F4
NetduinoPlus2 - Netduino Development Board with STM32F4
STM32-E407 - Olimex Development Board for STM32F407ZGT6
STM32-H103 - Olimex Header Board for STM32F103RBT6
STM32-P103 - Olimex Prototype Board for STM32F103RBT6
STM32-P107 - Olimex Prototype Board for STM32F107VCT6
STM32F4-Discovery - ST Discovery kit for STM32F407/417 lines
STM32F429I-Discovery - ST Discovery kit for STM32F429/439 lines
Supported MCUs:
STM32F103RB
STM32F107VC
STM32F405RG
STM32F407VG
STM32F407ZG
STM32F429ZI
STM32L152RE
2.4.2 Test QEMU
Step 1: Create and Build Project
As mentioned above, since current GNU MCU Eclipse QEMU does NOT support STM32F767ZI yet, we have to carry our QEMU test with another board. Here, we pick up board STM32F429I-Discovery with MCU STM32F429ZI to carry out QEMU test.
Similar to previous section, let's first create a Blinky C/C++ project with board configuration STM32F4xx with Chip family STM32F429xx, as follows:
Then, we Build Project with any ARM Embedded GCC Toolchain. In our case, we build our code with Debug configuration with GNU MCU Eclipse ARM Embedded GCC Toolchain.
12:38:20 **** Build of configuration Debug for project F429ZI_Blinky ****

Step 2: Run Project with QEMU
Finally, we need to run the project by emulating STM32F429I-Discovery with chip STM32F429ZI via QEMU. Right click on the built file HelloWorld.elf -> Run As -> Run Configurations -> GDB QEMU Debugging -> New. We creat a new configuration named F429ZI_Blinky QEMU, and make the Run Configurations as in the following two images:
And the project Blinky successfully run with the following output:
