svd2rust

Generate Rust register maps (structs) from SVD files

Usage

• Get the start address of each peripheral register block.

$ svd2rust -i STM32F30x.svd const GPIOA: usize = 0x48000000; const GPIOB: usize = 0x48000400; const GPIOC: usize = 0x48000800; const GPIOD: usize = 0x48000c00; const GPIOE: usize = 0x48001000; const GPIOF: usize = 0x48001400; (..)

• Generate a register map for a single peripheral.

``` $ svd2rust -i STM32F30x.svd rcc | head

[repr(C)]

/// Reset and clock control pub struct Rcc { /// Clock control register pub cr: Cr, /// Clock configuration register (RCCCFGR) pub cfgr: Cfgr, /// Clock interrupt register (RCCCIR) pub cir: Cir, /// APB2 peripheral reset register (RCC_APB2RSTR) (..) ```

API

The svd2rust generates the following API for each peripheral:

Register block

A register block "definition" as a struct. Example below:

``` rust /// Inter-integrated circuit

[repr(C)]

pub struct I2c1 { /// 0x00 - Control register 1 pub cr1: Cr1, /// 0x04 - Control register 2 pub cr2: Cr2, /// 0x08 - Own address register 1 pub oar1: Oar1, /// 0x0c - Own address register 2 pub oar2: Oar2, /// 0x10 - Timing register pub timingr: Timingr, /// 0x14 - Status register 1 pub timeoutr: Timeoutr, /// 0x18 - Interrupt and Status register pub isr: Isr, /// 0x1c - Interrupt clear register pub icr: Icr, /// 0x20 - PEC register pub pecr: Pecr, /// 0x24 - Receive data register pub rxdr: Rxdr, /// 0x28 - Transmit data register pub txdr: Txdr, } ```

The user has to "instantiate" this definition for each peripheral instance. They have several choices:

• statics and/or static muts. Example below:

rust extern "C" { // I2C1 can be accessed in read-write mode pub static mut I2C1: I2c; // whereas I2C2 can only be accessed in "read-only" mode pub static I2C1: I2c; }

Where the addresses of these register blocks must be provided by a linker script:

ld /* layout.ld */ I2C1 = 0x40005400; I2C2 = 0x40005800;

This has the side effect that the I2C1 and I2C2 symbols get "taken" so no other C/Rust symbol (static, function, etc.) can have the same name.

• "constructor" functions. Example, equivalent to the static one, below:

``` rust // Addresses of the register blocks. These are private. const I2C1: usize = 0x40005400; const I2C2: usize = 0x40005800;

// NOTE(unsafe) can alias references to mutable memory pub unsafe fn i2c1() -> &'mut static I2C { unsafe { &mut *(I2C1 as *mut I2c) } }

pub fn i2c2() -> &'static I2C { unsafe { &*(I2C2 as *const I2c) } } ```

read / modify / write

Each register in the register block, e.g. the cr1 field in the I2c struct, exposes a combination of the read, modify and write methods. Which methods exposes each register depends on whether the register is read-only, read-write or write-only:

• read-only registers only expose the read method.
• write-only registers only expose the write method.
• read-write registers exposes all the methods: read, modify and write.

This is signature of each of these methods:

(using the CR2 register as an example)

``` rust impl Cr2 { pub fn modify(&mut self, f: F) where for<'w> F: FnOnce(&Cr2R, &'w mut Cr2W) -> &'w mut Cr2W { .. }

pub fn read(&self) -> Cr2R { .. }

pub fn write<F>(&mut self, f: F)
    where F: FnOnce(&mut Cr2W) -> &mut Cr2W,
{
    ..
}

} ```

The read method performs a single, volatile LDR instruction and returns a proxy Cr2R struct which allows access to only the readable bits (i.e. not to the reserved bits) of the CR2 register:

``` rust impl Cr2R { /// Bit 0 - Slave address bit 0 (master mode) pub fn sadd0(&self) -> bool { .. }

/// Bits 1:7 - Slave address bit 7:1 (master mode)
pub fn sadd1(&self) -> u8 { .. }

(..)

} ```

Usage looks like this:

rust // is the SADD0 bit of the CR2 register set? if i2c1.c2r.read().sadd0() { // something } else { // something else }

The write method performs a single, volatile STR instruction to write a value to the CR2 register. This method involves the Cr2W struct which only allows constructing valid states of the CR2 register.

The only constructor that Cr2W provides is reset_value which returns the value of the CR2 register after a reset. The rest of Cr2W methods are "builder" like and can be used to set or reset the writable bits of the CR2 register.

``` rust impl Cr2W { /// Reset value pub fn reset_value() -> Self { Cr2W { bits: 0 } }

/// Bits 1:7 - Slave address bit 7:1 (master mode)
pub fn sadd1(&mut self, value: u8) -> &mut Self { .. }

/// Bit 0 - Slave address bit 0 (master mode)
pub fn sadd0(&mut self, value: bool) -> &mut Self { .. }

} ```

The write method takes a closure with signature &mut Cr2W -> &mut Cr2W. If passed the identity closure, |w| w, the write method will set the CR2 register to its reset value. Otherwise, the closure specifies how that reset value will be modified before it's written to CR2.

Usage looks like this:

rust // Write to CR2, its reset value but with its SADD0 and SADD1 fields set to `true` and `0b0011110` i2c1.cr2.write(|w| w.sadd0(true).sadd1(0b0011110));

Finally, the modify method performs a read-modify-write operation that involves at least one LDR instruction, one STR instruction plus extra instructions to modify the fetched value of the CR2 register. This method accepts a closure that specifies how the CR2 register will be modified.

Usage looks like this:

rust // Toggle the STOP bit of the CR2 register and set the START bit i2c1.cr2.modify(|r, w| w.stop(!r.stop()).start(true));
