Add CodeQL Workflow for Code Security Analysis
This pull request introduces a CodeQL workflow to enhance the security analysis of our repository. CodeQL is a powerful static analysis tool that helps identify and mitigate security vulnerabilities in our codebase. By integrating this workflow into our GitHub Actions, we can proactively identify and address potential issues before they become security threats.
We added a new CodeQL workflow file (.github/workflows/codeql.yml) that
- Runs on every pull request (functionality to run on every push to main branches is included as a comment for convenience).
- Runs daily.
- Excludes queries with a high false positive rate or low-severity findings.
- Does not display results for git submodules, focusing only on our own codebase.
Testing:
To validate the functionality of this workflow, we have run several test scans on the codebase and reviewed the results. The workflow successfully compiles the project, identifies issues, and provides actionable insights while reducing noise by excluding certain queries and third-party code.
Deployment:
Once this pull request is merged, the CodeQL workflow will be active and automatically run on every push and pull request to the main branch. To view the results of these code scans, please follow these steps:
1. Under the repository name, click on the Security tab.
2. In the left sidebar, click Code scanning alerts.
Additional Information:
- You can further customize the workflow to adapt to your specific needs by modifying the workflow file.
- For more information on CodeQL and how to interpret its results, refer to the GitHub documentation and the CodeQL documentation (https://codeql.github.com/ and https://codeql.github.com/docs/).

STM32L0 chips use loader_code_stm32lx, but this flash loader is built
for armv7-m and uses instructions that are unsupported on STM32L0 (which
have Cortex M0+ cores implementing armv6-m).
In particular, loader_code_stm32lx uses variants of add-immediate that
do not update the condition flags ( `add r0, r0, #4` ). These are 32bit
instructions in armv7-m and are not available in armv6-m.
Enable loader_code_stm32lx to run on both armv6-m and armv7-m by
building for armv6-m, which requires changing the `add` instructions to
`adds` instructions that do update condition flags (which is ok because
the subs updates the condition flags again before the branch).
stm32l1_write_half_pages uses a local flash_loader_t that is never
initialized.
This results in stlink_flash_loader_run using uninitialized values for
fl->buf_addr and fl->loader_addr when copying the buffer
and initializing the source register and PC before running the core to
execute the flashloader.
Pass the flash_loader_t from stlink_flashloader_write through to
stm32l1_write_half_pages and use that one instead of an uninitialized
local structure.
- Moved declarations for read/write functions to read_write.h .
- Checked & revised header includes
- Changed some datatypes for write_buffer_to_sram() to avoid explicit
casting.
