Supported Flash memory technologies
STM32MP15 boards support the following types of Flash memory:
- SD card on the SDMMC interface present on EVAL and DISCO boards
- e•MMC on the SDMMC interface present on EVAL board only
- Serial NOR Flash memory on the Dual QSPI interface present on EVAL board only
- NAND Flash memory on the FMC interface present on EVAL board only.
The next section lists all partitions used on STM32MP15 boards (size, name, and content), and the following sections show how they are mapped on the different types of Flash memory.
Flash partitions
The tables below list the partitions defined for STMP32MP15 boards.

(*): The partition size depends on the Flash technology, as it should be aligned to the block erase size of the Flash device present on the board (256 Kbytes for NOR and 512 Kbytes for NAND).
SD card memory mapping
The SD card has to be partitioned with GPT format in order to be recognized by the STM32MP15. The easiest way to achieve this is to use STM32CubeProgrammer.
The ROM code looks for the GPT entries whose name begins with "fsbl": fsbl1 and fsbl2 for example.
Note: The SD card can be unplugged from the board and inserted into a Linux host computer for direct partitioning with Linux utilities and access to the bootfs, rootfs and userfs partitions. The file system is Linux EXT4.
e•MMC memory mapping
The e•MMC embeds four physical partitions:
- Boot area partition 1: one copy of the FSBL
- Boot area partition 2: one copy of the FSBL
- User data area: formatted with GPT partitioning and used to store all remaining partitions
- Replay Protected Memory Block (RPMB): not shown in the figure below, since not involved in the current boot chain.
STM32CubeProgrammer has to be used to prepare the e•MMC with the layout shown below, and to populate each partition.
![]() |
The boot area partition used by the e•MMC boot sequence is selected via the EXT_CSD[179] register in the e•MMC. The STM32CubeProgrammer execution is concluded with the selection of the last written partition from the flashlayout file, typically partition 2. The other copy is never used as long as the user does not explicitly change the e•MMC EXT_CSD[179] register to select it. |
NOR memory mapping
As NOR Flash memory is expensive, its size is usually limited to the minimum needed to store only the bootloaders. The system files (bootfs, rootfs and userfs) are usually stored in another Flash memory, such as the SD card in OpenSTLinux distribution.
STM32CubeProgrammer must be used to prepare the NOR Flash and the SD card with the layout shown below, and to populate each partition.
It is possible to use an e•MMC card or NAND as second-level Flash memory, rather than an SD card. This requires the following aspects to be changed:
- The Flash memory layout, using STM32CubeProgrammer in order to write the rootfs and userfs to the targeted Flash memory
- The Linux kernel parameters, using U-Boot, in order to indicate where the rootfs and userfs have to be mounted.
