STM32 HAL Driver Update

Hello all,

Recently, STMicroelectronics updated STM32F4 HAL driver [1]. Some of the APIs are changed, like CAN. Do you plan to update included sources listed here?

stmhal: Policy with regards to updating ST HAL Cube library from upstream

Dear all,

Is it to be expected that the current STM HAL version for the F4xx (v1.1.0) (19-jun-2014) will be updated towards the latest from STM (1.4.1) (9-oct-2015)?

Is somebody already working on this?

It seems that STM did an overhaul of the HAL code and it would be nice to keep up...

Assessment

S Sonnet · high

Both issues ask the same recurring question — will MicroPython update the STM32 HAL library? — but refer to different version gaps at different points in time. Issue #1791 asks about moving from v1.1.0 (2014) to v1.4.1 (2015); issue #6422 asks about a later update wave that changed CAN APIs. They share the same component, same question type, and the same underlying maintenance concern, but neither resolves the other. The candidate does not answer or close out #6422's specific question about CAN API compatibility.

Suggested action

Link #6422 to #1791 as a related/recurring instance of the same policy question. Neither closes the other. If the HAL has since been updated, both can be closed as resolved; otherwise leave open and consider documenting the project's HAL update policy to avoid repeated inquiries.
