PSoC™ 6

[PaSw_2578827]

Is there an easy way to setup a project that uses a pre-compiled library (or elf) for the m0p core but compiles and builds the m4 binary and links against the precompiled m0p image? I'm using a PSoC 62 and I'm trying to share a BSP that uses the m0p core exclusively to manage some of the hardware while letting the user program their code on the m4 (there are a few minimal hooks to the m0p via the IPC). It would be nice if I could hide most of the inner workings of the m0p code for simplicity sake.

I thought I read somewhere that some of the Cypress examples do this, but I haven't seen any that do. I'd imagine I could probably do it by tweaking all of the build settings and the post build bat file along with providing a pre-compiled elf for the m0p, just didn't know if there was an easier solution that was meant to be used for this type of circumstance.

Thanks

Please refer to the Secure Image project template available at the following location: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Cypress\PDL\3.x.x\security\secure_image"

Inside this directory, you will find a scripts directory where there are several bat files.

For example, the "secure_image_postbuild.bat" is designed to designed to run after the CM0+ application link step. It performs the following functions:

• Run the cymcuelftool to export select symbols (as defined in cy_si_export_symbols.txt) to be referenced by the user application.
• Run the cymcuelftool application signing process for creating a digital signature of the secure image.

Then the file "user_app0_postbuild.bat" is designed to run after the CM4 application link step. The script performs the following functions:

• Run the cymcuelftool application signing process for creating a digital signature of the user application image.
• Combine the user application image with the secure image to create a single elf file and a single hex file.

You could use these scripts for getting started and create your own bat scripts for your application. You can learn more about the project here: https://www.cypress.com/file/447981/download
