Rust black pill learning demo

My personal walk through learning Rust development on STM32 family of microcontrollers, using:

• Black Pill development board with STM32F411CEU6 microcontroller as a target device
• STLink v2 as a programming and debugging interface
• Debian 10/11 bullseye and Visual studio code as development environment

Userful Resources

Useful links for programming Black Pill board

• pin out and board documentation: https://docs.zephyrproject.org/3.2.0/boards/arm/blackpill_f401ce/doc/index.html
• https://www.jef.land/stm32f411-pit/
• https://crates.io/crates/stm32f4xx-hal

Getting Started

All programming devices and software tools are pretty much the same as for the Blue pill board (check getting started page for the Blue pill device for details).

Target device specification for the openocd tool is stm32f4x instead of stm32f1x

openocd -f interface/stlink-v2.cfg -f target/stm32f4x.cfg

Also check different memory limits in the memory.x file.
