I'm working on a Nucleo-F767zi board (stm32F767ZIT6U MCU) with custom bootloader and application in Atollic TrueSTUDIO. I have working bootloader and application. I have started both separately without errors. But when I try to run application from bootloader I have hard_fault in application. Image of application is correct (address, size and check code of image are valid) before I jump. I would appreciate for any idea of what I should pay attention and remake.

part of bootloader code:

int boot_main(void)
{
  // Reset of all peripherals, Initializes the Flash interface and the Systick.
  HAL_Init();

  // Configure the system clock
  SystemClock_Config();

  // bootloader
  if (isBootFlag() || checkMainAppWithSign()) {
    //HAL_DeInit();
    startMainApp();
  }

  // Initialize all configured peripherals
  MX_GPIO_Init();
  MX_ETH_Init();
  MX_USART3_UART_Init();

  MX_USB_DEVICE_Init();

  createTask(&sysTaskControlBlock, threadTaskSystem, NULL, tskIDLE_PRIORITY + 3, bufferTaskSystem, sizemas(bufferTaskSystem), "SystemTask");
  // Start scheduler */
  osKernelStart();
  // We should never get here as control is now taken by the scheduler
  // Infinite loop
  while (1) {

  }
}

void startMainApp(void)
{
  uint32_t mainAppAddr;
  mainAppAddr =  (uint32_t)Flash_Get_Starting_Address(FLASH_SPACE_APPLICATION);

  __disable_irq();

  typedef void(*pMainApp)(void);
  pMainApp mainApplication;
  mainApplication = (pMainApp)(mainAppAddr + 4);
  __set_MSP(*(uint32_t*)mainAppAddr);

  SCB->VTOR = mainAppAddr;

  mainApplication();
}

Looks like you're __set_MSPing to a flash address instead of a RAM address.Fiddling Bits
I checked MSP once more and see the same value - 0x20080000 at address 0x8040000. So, first reg of application vector table points to the highest RAM before application runs.wahoo

I found my error. Thanks to Fiddling Bits who gave me useful hint. Working code for my application:

void startMainApp(void)
{
  typedef void(*pMainApp)(void);
  pMainApp mainApplication;

  uint32_t mainAppAddr =  (uint32_t)Flash_Get_Starting_Address(FLASH_SPACE_APPLICATION);
  uint32_t mainAppStack = (uint32_t)*((uint32_t*)mainAppAddr);
  mainApplication = (pMainApp)*(uint32_t*)(mainAppAddr + 4); // Corrected!!!

  __disable_irq();
  __set_MSP(mainAppStack);
  SCB->VTOR = mainAppAddr;
  __enable_irq();

  mainApplication();
}
