🛡️ Safety-Critical Patterns for ARM Cortex-M7 (Teensy 4.x, STM32 F7/H7)

Memory Barriers for MMIO (ARM Cortex-M7 Weakly-Ordered Memory)

CRITICAL: ARM Cortex-M7 has weakly-ordered memory. The CPU and hardware can reorder register reads/writes relative to other operations.

Symptoms of Missing Barriers:

  • "Works with debug prints, fails without them" (print adds implicit delay)
  • Register writes don't take effect before next instruction executes
  • Reading stale register values despite hardware updates
  • Intermittent failures that disappear with optimization level changes
Implementation Pattern

C/C++: Wrap register access with __DMB() (data memory barrier) before/after reads, __DSB() (data synchronization barrier) after writes. Create helper functions: mmio_read(), mmio_write(), mmio_modify().

Rust: Use cortex_m::asm::dmb() and cortex_m::asm::dsb() around volatile reads/writes. Create macros like safe_read_reg!(), safe_write_reg!(), safe_modify_reg!() that wrap HAL register access.

Why This Matters: M7 reorders memory operations for performance. Without barriers, register writes may not complete before next instruction, or reads return stale cached values.

DMA and Cache Coherency

CRITICAL: ARM Cortex-M7 devices (Teensy 4.x, STM32 F7/H7) have data caches. DMA and CPU can see different data without cache maintenance.

Alignment Requirements (CRITICAL):

  • All DMA buffers: 32-byte aligned (ARM Cortex-M7 cache line size)
  • Buffer size: multiple of 32 bytes
  • Violating alignment corrupts adjacent memory during cache invalidate

Memory Placement Strategies (Best to Worst):

  1. DTCM/SRAM (Non-cacheable, fastest CPU access)

    • C++: __attribute__((section(".dtcm.bss"))) __attribute__((aligned(32))) static uint8_t buffer[512];
    • Rust: #[link_section = ".dtcm"] #[repr(C, align(32))] static mut BUFFER: [u8; 512] = [0; 512];
  2. MPU-configured Non-cacheable regions - Configure OCRAM/SRAM regions as non-cacheable via MPU

  3. Cache Maintenance (Last resort - slowest)

    • Before DMA reads from memory: arm_dcache_flush_delete() or cortex_m::cache::clean_dcache_by_range()
    • After DMA writes to memory: arm_dcache_delete() or cortex_m::cache::invalidate_dcache_by_range()
Address Validation Helper (Debug Builds)

Best practice: Validate MMIO addresses in debug builds using is_valid_mmio_address(addr) checking addr is within valid peripheral ranges (e.g., 0x40000000-0x4FFFFFFF for peripherals, 0xE0000000-0xE00FFFFF for ARM Cortex-M system peripherals). Use #ifdef DEBUG guards and halt on invalid addresses.

Write-1-to-Clear (W1C) Register Pattern

Many status registers (especially i.MX RT, STM32) clear by writing 1, not 0:

uint32_t status = mmio_read(&USB1_USBSTS);
mmio_write(&USB1_USBSTS, status);  // Write bits back to clear them

Common W1C: USBSTS, PORTSC, CCM status. Wrong: status &= ~bit does nothing on W1C registers.

Platform Safety & Gotchas

⚠️ Voltage Tolerances:

  • Most platforms: GPIO max 3.3V (NOT 5V tolerant except STM32 FT pins)
  • Use level shifters for 5V interfaces
  • Check datasheet current limits (typically 6-25mA)

Teensy 4.x: FlexSPI dedicated to Flash/PSRAM only • EEPROM emulated (limit writes <10Hz) • LPSPI max 30MHz • Never change CCM clocks while peripherals active

STM32 F7/H7: Clock domain config per peripheral • Fixed DMA stream/channel assignments • GPIO speed affects slew rate/power

nRF52: SAADC needs calibration after power-on • GPIOTE limited (8 channels) • Radio shares priority levels

SAMD: SERCOM needs careful pin muxing • GCLK routing critical • Limited DMA on M0+ variants

Modern Rust: Never Use static mut

CORRECT Patterns:

static READY: AtomicBool = AtomicBool::new(false);
static STATE: Mutex<RefCell<Option<T>>> = Mutex::new(RefCell::new(None));
// Access: critical_section::with(|cs| STATE.borrow_ref_mut(cs))

WRONG: static mut is undefined behavior (data races).

Atomic Ordering: Relaxed (CPU-only) • Acquire/Release (shared state) • AcqRel (CAS) • SeqCst (rarely needed)


🎯 Interrupt Priorities & NVIC Configuration

Platform-Specific Priority Levels:

  • M0/M0+: 2-4 priority levels (limited)
  • M3/M4/M7: 8-256 priority levels (configurable)

Key Principles:

  • Lower number = higher priority (e.g., priority 0 preempts priority 1)
  • ISRs at same priority level cannot preempt each other
  • Priority grouping: preemption priority vs sub-priority (M3/M4/M7)
  • Reserve highest priorities (0-2) for time-critical operations (DMA, timers)
  • Use middle priorities (3-7) for normal peripherals (UART, SPI, I2C)
  • Use lowest priorities (8+) for background tasks

Configuration:

  • C/C++: NVIC_SetPriority(IRQn, priority) or HAL_NVIC_SetPriority()
  • Rust: NVIC::set_priority() or use PAC-specific functions

🔒 Critical Sections & Interrupt Masking

Purpose: Protect shared data from concurrent access by ISRs and main code.

C/C++:

__disable_irq(); /* critical section */ __enable_irq();  // Blocks all

// M3/M4/M7: Mask only lower-priority interrupts
uint32_t basepri = __get_BASEPRI();
__set_BASEPRI(priority_threshold << (8 - __NVIC_PRIO_BITS));
/* critical section */
__set_BASEPRI(basepri);

Rust: cortex_m::interrupt::free(|cs| { /* use cs token */ })

Best Practices:

  • Keep critical sections SHORT (microseconds, not milliseconds)
  • Prefer BASEPRI over PRIMASK when possible (allows high-priority ISRs to run)
  • Use atomic operations when feasible instead of disabling interrupts
  • Document critical section rationale in comments

🐛 Hardfault Debugging Basics

Common Causes:

  • Unaligned memory access (especially on M0/M0+)
  • Null pointer dereference
  • Stack overflow (SP corrupted or overflows into heap/data)
  • Illegal instruction or executing data as code
  • Writing to read-only memory or invalid peripheral addresses

Inspection Pattern (M3/M4/M7):

  • Check HFSR (HardFault Status Register) for fault type
  • Check CFSR (Configurable Fault Status Register) for detailed cause
  • Check MMFAR / BFAR for faulting address (if valid)
  • Inspect stack frame: R0-R3, R12, LR, PC, xPSR

Platform Limitations:

  • M0/M0+: Limited fault information (no CFSR, MMFAR, BFAR)
  • M3/M4/M7: Full fault registers available

Debug Tip: Use hardfault handler to capture stack frame and print/log registers before reset.

🧮 FPU Context Saving

Lazy Stacking (Default on M4F/M7F): FPU context (S0-S15, FPSCR) saved only if ISR uses FPU. Reduces latency for non-FPU ISRs but creates variable timing.

Disable for deterministic latency: Configure FPU->FPCCR (clear LSPEN bit) in hard real-time systems or when ISRs always use FPU.


🛡️ Stack Overflow Protection

MPU Guard Pages (Best): Configure no-access MPU region below stack. Triggers MemManage fault on M3/M4/M7. Limited on M0/M0+.

Canary Values (Portable): Magic value (e.g., 0xDEADBEEF) at stack bottom, check periodically.

Watchdog: Indirect detection via timeout, provides recovery. Best: MPU guard pages, else canary + watchdog.

## 🛡️ Safety-Critical Patterns for ARM Cortex-M7 (Teensy 4.x, STM32 F7/H7)

### Memory Barriers for MMIO (ARM Cortex-M7 Weakly-Ordered Memory)

**CRITICAL:** ARM Cortex-M7 has weakly-ordered memory. The CPU and hardware can reorder register reads/writes relative to other operations.

**Symptoms of Missing Barriers:**

- "Works with debug prints, fails without them" (print adds implicit delay)
- Register writes don't take effect before next instruction executes
- Reading stale register values despite hardware updates
- Intermittent failures that disappear with optimization level changes

#### Implementation Pattern

**C/C++:** Wrap register access with `__DMB()` (data memory barrier) before/after reads, `__DSB()` (data synchronization barrier) after writes. Create helper functions: `mmio_read()`, `mmio_write()`, `mmio_modify()`.

**Why This Matters:** M7 reorders memory operations for performance. Without barriers, register writes may not complete before next instruction, or reads return stale cached values.

### DMA and Cache Coherency

**CRITICAL:** ARM Cortex-M7 devices (Teensy 4.x, STM32 F7/H7) have data caches. DMA and CPU can see different data without cache maintenance.

**Alignment Requirements (CRITICAL):**

- All DMA buffers: **32-byte aligned** (ARM Cortex-M7 cache line size)

- Violating alignment corrupts adjacent memory during cache invalidate

**Memory Placement Strategies (Best to Worst):**

1. **DTCM/SRAM** (Non-cacheable, fastest CPU access)
   - C++: `__attribute__((section(".dtcm.bss"))) __attribute__((aligned(32))) static uint8_t buffer[512];`
   - Rust: `#[link_section = ".dtcm"] #[repr(C, align(32))] static mut BUFFER: [u8; 512] = [0; 512];`

2. **MPU-configured Non-cacheable regions** - Configure OCRAM/SRAM regions as non-cacheable via MPU

3. **Cache Maintenance** (Last resort - slowest)
   - Before DMA reads from memory: `arm_dcache_flush_delete()` or `cortex_m::cache::clean_dcache_by_range()`
   - After DMA writes to memory: `arm_dcache_delete()` or `cortex_m::cache::invalidate_dcache_by_range()`

### Address Validation Helper (Debug Builds)

**Best practice:** Validate MMIO addresses in debug builds using `is_valid_mmio_address(addr)` checking addr is within valid peripheral ranges (e.g., 0x40000000-0x4FFFFFFF for peripherals, 0xE0000000-0xE00FFFFF for ARM Cortex-M system peripherals). Use `#ifdef DEBUG` guards and halt on invalid addresses.

### Write-1-to-Clear (W1C) Register Pattern

Many status registers (especially i.MX RT, STM32) clear by writing 1, not 0:

```cpp
uint32_t status = mmio_read(&USB1_USBSTS);
mmio_write(&USB1_USBSTS, status);  // Write bits back to clear them
```

**Common W1C:** `USBSTS`, `PORTSC`, CCM status. **Wrong:** `status &= ~bit` does nothing on W1C registers.

### Platform Safety & Gotchas

**⚠️ Voltage Tolerances:**

- Most platforms: GPIO max 3.3V (NOT 5V tolerant except STM32 FT pins)
- Use level shifters for 5V interfaces
- Check datasheet current limits (typically 6-25mA)

**Teensy 4.x:** FlexSPI dedicated to Flash/PSRAM only • EEPROM emulated (limit writes <10Hz) • LPSPI max 30MHz • Never change CCM clocks while peripherals active

**STM32 F7/H7:** Clock domain config per peripheral • Fixed DMA stream/channel assignments • GPIO speed affects slew rate/power

**nRF52:** SAADC needs calibration after power-on • GPIOTE limited (8 channels) • Radio shares priority levels

**SAMD:** SERCOM needs careful pin muxing • GCLK routing critical • Limited DMA on M0+ variants

### Modern Rust: Never Use `static mut`

**CORRECT Patterns:**

```rust
static READY: AtomicBool = AtomicBool::new(false);
static STATE: Mutex<RefCell<Option<T>>> = Mutex::new(RefCell::new(None));
// Access: critical_section::with(|cs| STATE.borrow_ref_mut(cs))
```

**WRONG:** `static mut` is undefined behavior (data races).

**Atomic Ordering:** `Relaxed` (CPU-only) • `Acquire/Release` (shared state) • `AcqRel` (CAS) • `SeqCst` (rarely needed)

## 🎯 Interrupt Priorities & NVIC Configuration

**Platform-Specific Priority Levels:**

- **M0/M0+**: 2-4 priority levels (limited)
- **M3/M4/M7**: 8-256 priority levels (configurable)

**Key Principles:**

- **Lower number = higher priority** (e.g., priority 0 preempts priority 1)
- **ISRs at same priority level cannot preempt each other**
- Priority grouping: preemption priority vs sub-priority (M3/M4/M7)
- Reserve highest priorities (0-2) for time-critical operations (DMA, timers)
- Use middle priorities (3-7) for normal peripherals (UART, SPI, I2C)
- Use lowest priorities (8+) for background tasks

**Configuration:**

- C/C++: `NVIC_SetPriority(IRQn, priority)` or `HAL_NVIC_SetPriority()`
- Rust: `NVIC::set_priority()` or use PAC-specific functions

---

## 🔒 Critical Sections & Interrupt Masking

**Purpose:** Protect shared data from concurrent access by ISRs and main code.

**C/C++:**

```cpp
__disable_irq(); /* critical section */ __enable_irq();  // Blocks all

// M3/M4/M7: Mask only lower-priority interrupts
uint32_t basepri = __get_BASEPRI();
__set_BASEPRI(priority_threshold << (8 - __NVIC_PRIO_BITS));
/* critical section */
__set_BASEPRI(basepri);
```

**Rust:** `cortex_m::interrupt::free(|cs| { /* use cs token */ })`

**Best Practices:**

- **Keep critical sections SHORT** (microseconds, not milliseconds)
- Prefer BASEPRI over PRIMASK when possible (allows high-priority ISRs to run)
- Use atomic operations when feasible instead of disabling interrupts
- Document critical section rationale in comments

## 🐛 Hardfault Debugging Basics

**Common Causes:**

- Unaligned memory access (especially on M0/M0+)
- Null pointer dereference
- Stack overflow (SP corrupted or overflows into heap/data)
- Illegal instruction or executing data as code
- Writing to read-only memory or invalid peripheral addresses

**Inspection Pattern (M3/M4/M7):**

- Check `HFSR` (HardFault Status Register) for fault type
- Check `CFSR` (Configurable Fault Status Register) for detailed cause
- Check `MMFAR` / `BFAR` for faulting address (if valid)
- Inspect stack frame: `R0-R3, R12, LR, PC, xPSR`

**Platform Limitations:**

- **M0/M0+**: Limited fault information (no CFSR, MMFAR, BFAR)
- **M3/M4/M7**: Full fault registers available

**Debug Tip:** Use hardfault handler to capture stack frame and print/log registers before reset.
