FLASH Library
|
34 |
|
|
|
35 |
|
|
The eCos FLASH Library
|
36 |
|
|
The FLASH library is an optional part of eCos, and is only
|
37 |
|
|
applicable to some platforms.
|
38 |
|
|
The eCos FLASH library provides the following functionality:
|
39 |
|
|
|
40 |
|
|
|
41 |
|
|
Identifying installed device of a FLASH family.
|
42 |
|
|
|
43 |
|
|
|
44 |
|
|
Read, erasing and writing to FLASH blocks.
|
45 |
|
|
Validating an address is within the FLASH.
|
46 |
|
|
Determining the number and size of FLASH blocks.
|
47 |
|
|
|
48 |
|
|
|
49 |
|
|
|
50 |
|
|
There are two APIs with the flash library. The old API is
|
51 |
|
|
retained for backwards compatibility reasons, but should slowly be
|
52 |
|
|
replaced with the new API which is much more flexible and does not
|
53 |
|
|
pollute the name space as much.
|

Notes on using the FLASH library
|
58 |
|
|
|
59 |
|
|
FLASH devices cannot be read from when an erase or write
|
60 |
|
|
operation is active. This means it is not possible to execute code
|
61 |
|
|
from flash while an erase or write operation is active. It is possible
|
62 |
|
|
to use the library when the executable image is resident in FLASH. The
|
63 |
|
|
low level drivers are written such that the linker places the
|
64 |
|
|
functions that actually manipulate the flash into RAM. However the
|
65 |
|
|
library may not be interrupt safe. An interrupt must not cause
|
66 |
|
|
execution of code that is resident in FLASH. This may be the image
|
67 |
|
|
itself, or RedBoot. In some configurations of eCos, ^C on the serial
|
68 |
|
|
port or debugging via Ethernet may cause an interrupt handler to call
|
69 |
|
|
RedBoot. If RedBoot is resident in FLASH this will cause a crash.
|
70 |
|
|
Similarly, if another thread invokes a virtual vector function to
|
71 |
|
|
access RedBoot, eg to perform a diag_printf() a
|
72 |
|
|
crash could result.
|
73 |
|
|
|
74 |
|
|
|
75 |
|
|
Thus with a ROM based image or a ROM based Redboot it is
|
76 |
|
|
recommended to disable interrupts while erasing or programming
|
77 |
|
|
flash. Using both a ROMRAM or RAM images and a ROMRAM or RAM RedBoot
|
78 |
|
|
are safe and there is no need to disable interrupts.

Danger, Will Robinson! Danger!
|
84 |
|
|
|
85 |
|
|
Unlike nearly every other aspect of embedded system programming,
|
86 |
|
|
getting it wrong with FLASH devices can render your target system
|
87 |
|
|
useless. Most targets have a boot loader in the FLASH. Without this
|
88 |
|
|
boot loader the target will obviously not boot. So before starting to
|
89 |
|
|
play with this library its worth investigating a few things. How do
|
90 |
|
|
you recover your target if you delete the boot loader? Do you have the
|
91 |
|
|
necessary JTAG cable? Or is specialist hardware needed? Is it even
|
92 |
|
|
possible to recover the target boards or must it be thrown into the
|
93 |
|
|
rubbish bin? How does killing the board affect your project schedule?

The Version 2 eCos FLASH API
|
101 |
|
|
|
102 |
|
|
There are two APIs described here. The first is the application
|
103 |
|
|
API which programs should use. The second API is that between the
|
104 |
|
|
FLASH IO library and the device drivers.
|
105 |
|
|
|
106 |
|
|
|
107 |
|
|
FLASH user API
|
108 |
|
|
|
109 |
|
|
All of the functions described below are declared in the header
|
110 |
|
|
file <cyg/io/flash.h> which all users of
|
111 |
|
|
the FLASH library should include.
|
112 |
|
|
|
113 |
|
|
|
114 |
|
|
Initializing the FLASH library
|
115 |
|
|
|
116 |
|
|
The FLASH library needs to be initialized before other FLASH
|
117 |
|
|
operations can be performed. This only needs to be done once. The
|
118 |
|
|
following function will only do the initialization once so it's safe
|
119 |
|
|
to call multiple times:
|
120 |
|
|
|
121 |
|
|
__externC int cyg_flash_init(cyg_flash_printf *pf);
|
122 |
|
|
|
123 |
|
|
|
124 |
|
|
The parameter pf must always be set to NULL. It
|
125 |
|
|
exists solely for backward compatibility and other settings are deprecated
|
126 |
|
|
and obsolete. Past use of this parameter has now been replaced with use of
|
127 |
|
|
the
|
128 |
|
|
linkend="ecos-flash-v2-api-config-diag-output">cyg_flash_set_global_printf
|
129 |
|
|
function.
|
130 |
|
|
|
131 |
|
|
|
132 |
|
|
|
133 |
|
|
|
134 |
|
|
|
135 |
|
|
Retrieving information about FLASH devices
|
136 |
|
|
|
137 |
|
|
|
138 |
|
|
The following five functions return information about the FLASH.
|
139 |
|
|
|
140 |
|
|
|
141 |
|
|
|
142 |
|
|
__externC int cyg_flash_get_info(cyg_uint32 devno, cyg_flash_info_t * info);
|
143 |
|
|
__externC int cyg_flash_get_info_addr(cyg_flashaddr_t flash_base, cyg_flash_info_t * info);
|
144 |
|
|
__externC int cyg_flash_verify_addr(const flashaddr_t address);
|
145 |
|
|
__extern size_t cyg_flash_block_size(const cyg_flashaddr_t flash_base);
|
146 |
|
|
|
147 |
|
|
typedef struct cyg_flash_block_info
|
148 |
|
|
{
|
149 |
|
|
size_t block_size;
|
150 |
|
|
cyg_uint32 blocks;
|
151 |
|
|
} cyg_flash_block_info_t;
|
152 |
|
|
|
153 |
|
|
typedef struct {
|
154 |
|
|
cyg_flashaddr_t start; // First address
|
155 |
|
|
cyg_flashaddr_t end; // Last address
|
156 |
|
|
cyg_uint32 num_block_infos;// Number of entries
|
157 |
|
|
const cyg_flash_block_info_t *block_info; // Info about one block size
|
158 |
|
|
} cyg_flash_info_t;
|
159 |
|
|
|
160 |
|
|
|
161 |
|
|
cyg_flash_get_info() is the main function
|
162 |
|
|
to get information about installed flash devices. Parameter
|
163 |
|
|
devno is used to iterate over the available
|
164 |
|
|
flash devices, starting from 0. If the devno'th device exists, the
|
165 |
|
|
structure pointed to by info is filled in and
|
166 |
|
|
CYG_FLASH_ERR_OK is returned, otherwise
|
167 |
|
|
CYG_FLASH_ERR_INVALID.
|
168 |
|
|
cyg_flash_get_info_addr() is similar, but returns the
|
169 |
|
|
information about the flash device at the given address.
|
170 |
|
|
cyg_flash_block_size() returns the size of the
|
171 |
|
|
block at the given address. cyg_flash_verify_addr()
|
172 |
|
|
tests if the target addresses is within one of the FLASH
|
173 |
|
|
devices, returning CYG_FLASH_ERR_OK if so.
|
174 |
|
|
|
175 |
|
|
|
176 |
|
|
|
177 |
|
|
|
178 |
|
|
Reading from FLASH
|
179 |
|
|
|
180 |
|
|
|
181 |
|
|
There are two methods for reading from FLASH. The first is to use the
|
182 |
|
|
following function.
|
183 |
|
|
|
184 |
|
|
|
185 |
|
|
__externC int cyg_flash_read(cyg_flashaddr_t flash_base, void *ram_base, size_t len, cyg_flashaddr_t *err_address);
|
186 |
|
|
|
187 |
|
|
|
188 |
|
|
|
189 |
|
|
flash_base is where in the flash to read
|
190 |
|
|
from. ram_base indicates where the data read
|
191 |
|
|
from flash should be placed into RAM. len is
|
192 |
|
|
the number of bytes to be read from the FLASH and
|
193 |
|
|
err_address is used to return the location in
|
194 |
|
|
FLASH that any error occurred while reading.
|
195 |
|
|
|
196 |
|
|
|
197 |
|
|
|
198 |
|
|
The second method is to simply memcpy() directly
|
199 |
|
|
from the FLASH. This is not recommended since some types of device
|
200 |
|
|
cannot be read in this way, eg NAND FLASH. Using the FLASH library
|
201 |
|
|
function to read the FLASH will always work so making it easy to port
|
202 |
|
|
code from one FLASH device to another.
|
203 |
|
|
|
204 |
|
|
|
205 |
|
|
|
206 |
|
|
|
207 |
|
|
|
208 |
|
|
Erasing areas of FLASH
|
209 |
|
|
|
210 |
|
|
|
211 |
|
|
Blocks of FLASH can be erased using the following function:
|
212 |
|
|
|
213 |
|
|
|
214 |
|
|
__externC int cyg_flash_erase(cyg_flashaddr_t flash_base, size_t len, cyg_flashaddr_t *err_address);
|
215 |
|
|
|
216 |
|
|
|
217 |
|
|
|
218 |
|
|
flash_base is where in the flash to erase
|
219 |
|
|
from. len is the minimum number of bytes to
|
220 |
|
|
erase in the FLASH and err_address is used to
|
221 |
|
|
return the location in FLASH that any error occurred while erasing. It
|
222 |
|
|
should be noted that FLASH devices are block oriented when erasing. It
|
223 |
|
|
is not possible to erase a few bytes within a block, the whole block
|
224 |
|
|
will be erased. flash_base may be anywhere
|
225 |
|
|
within the first block to be erased and flash_base+len
|
226 |
|
|
may be anywhere in the last block to be erased.
|
227 |
|
|
|
228 |
|
|
|
229 |
|
|
|
230 |
|
|
|
231 |
|
|
Programming the FLASH
|
232 |
|
|
|
233 |
|
|
Programming of the flash is achieved using the following
|
234 |
|
|
function.
|
235 |
|
|
|
236 |
|
|
__externC int cyg_flash_program(cyg_flashaddr_t flash_base, void *ram_base, size_t len, cyg_flashaddr_t *err_address);
|
237 |
|
|
|
238 |
|
|
|
239 |
|
|
|
240 |
|
|
flash_base is where in the flash to program
|
241 |
|
|
from. ram_base indicates where the data to be
|
242 |
|
|
programmed into FLASH should be read from in RAM. len
|
243 |
|
|
is the number of bytes to be program into the FLASH and
|
244 |
|
|
err_address is used to return the location in
|
245 |
|
|
FLASH that any error occurred while programming.
|
246 |
|
|
|
247 |
|
|
|
248 |
|
|
|
249 |
|
|
|
250 |
|
|
Locking and unlocking blocks
|
251 |
|
|
|
252 |
|
|
|
253 |
|
|
Some flash devices have the ability to lock and unlock blocks. A
|
254 |
|
|
locked block cannot be erased or programmed without it first being
|
255 |
|
|
unlocked. For devices which support this feature and when
|
256 |
|
|
CYGHWR_IO_FLASH_BLOCK_LOCKING is enabled then the following
|
257 |
|
|
two functions are available:
|
258 |
|
|
|
259 |
|
|
|
260 |
|
|
__externC int cyg_flash_lock(const cyg_flashaddr_t flash_base, size_t len, cyg_flashaddr_t *err_address);
|
261 |
|
|
__externC int cyg_flash_unlock(const cyg_flashaddr_t flash_base, size_t len, cyg_flashaddr_t *err_address);
|
262 |
|
|
|
263 |
|
|
|
264 |
|
|
|
265 |
|
|
|
266 |
|
|
|
267 |
|
|
Locking FLASH mutexes
|
268 |
|
|
|
269 |
|
|
When the eCos kernel package is included in the eCos
|
270 |
|
|
configuration, the FLASH IO library will perform mutex locking on
|
271 |
|
|
FLASH operations. This makes the API defined here thread safe. However
|
272 |
|
|
applications may wish to directly access the contents of the FLASH. In
|
273 |
|
|
order for this to be thread safe it is necessary for the application
|
274 |
|
|
to use the following two functions to inform the FLASH IO library that
|
275 |
|
|
the FLASH devices are being used and other API calls should be
|
276 |
|
|
blocked.
|
277 |
|
|
|
278 |
|
|
|
279 |
|
|
__externC int cyg_flash_mutex_lock(const cyg_flashaddr_t from, size_t len);
|
280 |
|
|
__externC int cyg_flash_mutex_unlock(const cyg_flashaddr_t from, size_t len);
|
281 |
|
|
|
282 |
|
|
|
283 |
|
|
|
284 |
|
|
|
285 |
|
|
|
286 |
|
|
Configuring diagnostic output
|
287 |
|
|
|
288 |
|
|
Each FLASH device can have an associated function which is
|
289 |
|
|
called to perform diagnostic output. The function to be used can
|
290 |
|
|
be configured with the following functions:
|
291 |
|
|
|
292 |
|
|
__externC int cyg_flash_set_printf(const cyg_flashaddr_t flash_base,
|
293 |
|
|
cyg_flash_printf *pf);
|
294 |
|
|
__externC void cyg_flash_set_global_printf(cyg_flash_printf *pf);
|
295 |
|
|
typedef int cyg_flash_printf(const char *fmt, ...);
|
296 |
|
|
|
297 |
|
|
The parameter pf is a pointer to a function
|
298 |
|
|
which is to be used for diagnostic output. Typically the function
|
299 |
|
|
diag_printf() will be passed. Normally this
|
300 |
|
|
function is not used by the higher layer of the library unless
|
301 |
|
|
CYGSEM_IO_FLASH_CHATTER is enabled. Passing a
|
302 |
|
|
NULL causes diagnostic output from lower level
|
303 |
|
|
drivers to be discarded.
|
304 |
|
|
|
305 |
|
|
cyg_flash_set_printf is used to set a
|
306 |
|
|
diagnostic output function which will be used specifically when
|
307 |
|
|
diagnostic output is attempted from the FLASH device driver associated
|
308 |
|
|
with the base address of flash_base. An error
|
309 |
|
|
will be returned if no FLASH device is found for this address, or the
|
310 |
|
|
FLASH subsystem has not yet been initialised with
|
311 |
|
|
cyg_flash_init.
|
312 |
|
|
|
313 |
|
|
cyg_flash_set_global_printf sets a
|
314 |
|
|
diagnostic output function for all available FLASH devices. Any
|
315 |
|
|
previous setting of a diagnostic output function (including with
|
316 |
|
|
cyg_flash_set_printf) will be discarded.
|
317 |
|
|
This function may be called prior to
|
318 |
|
|
cyg_flash_init.
|
319 |
|
|
|
320 |
|
|
|
321 |
|
|
|
322 |
|
|
|
323 |
|
|
Return values and errors
|
324 |
|
|
|
325 |
|
|
All the functions above return one of the following return
|
326 |
|
|
values.
|
327 |
|
|
|
328 |
|
|

To turn an error code into a human readable string the following
|
347 |
|
|
function can be used:
|
348 |
|
|
|
349 |
|
|
__externC const char *cyg_flash_errmsg(const int err);

The FLASH device Structure
|
361 |
|
|
|
362 |
|
|
This structure keeps all the information about a single driver.
|
363 |
|
|
|
364 |
|
|

The legacy Version 1 eCos FLASH API
|
405 |
|
|
|
406 |
|
|
The library has a number of limitations:
|
407 |
|
|
|
408 |
|
|
|
409 |
|
|
Only one family of FLASH device may be supported at once.
|
410 |
|
|
|
411 |
|
|
|
412 |
|
|
Multiple devices of one family are supported, but they must
|
413 |
|
|
be contiguous in memory.
|
414 |
|
|
|
415 |
|
|
|
416 |
|
|
The library is not thread or interrupt safe under
|
417 |
|
|
some conditions.
|
418 |
|
|
|
419 |
|
|
|
420 |
|
|
The library currently does not use the eCos naming
|
421 |
|
|
convention for its functions. This may change in the
|
422 |
|
|
future but backward compatibility is likely to be kept.
|
423 |
|
|
|
424 |
|
|
|
425 |
|
|
|
426 |
|
|
|
427 |
|
|
There are two APIs described here. The first is the application
|
428 |
|
|
API which programs should use. The second API is that between the
|
429 |
|
|
FLASH io library and the device drivers.
|
430 |
|
|
|
431 |
|
|
|
432 |
|
|
FLASH user API
|
433 |
|
|
|
434 |
|
|
All of the functions described below are declared in the header
|
435 |
|
|
file <cyg/io/flash.h> which all users of
|
436 |
|
|
the FLASH library should include.
|
437 |
|
|
|
438 |
|
|
|
439 |
|
|
|
440 |
|
|
Initializing the FLASH library
|
441 |
|
|
|
442 |
|
|
The FLASH library needs to be initialized before other FLASH
|
443 |
|
|
operations can be performed. This only needs to be done once. The
|
444 |
|
|
following function will only do the initialization once so it's safe
|
445 |
|
|
to call multiple times:
|
446 |
|
|
|
447 |
|
|
externC int flash_init( _printf *pf );
|
448 |
|
|
typedef int _printf(const char *fmt, ...);
|
449 |
|
|
|
450 |
|
|
|
451 |
|
|
The parameter pf is a pointer to a function
|
452 |
|
|
which is to be used for diagnostic output. Typically the function
|
453 |
|
|
diag_printf() will be passed. Normally this
|
454 |
|
|
function is not used by the higher layer of the library unless
|
455 |
|
|
CYGSEM_IO_FLASH_CHATTER is enabled. Passing a
|
456 |
|
|
NULL is not recommended, even when
|
457 |
|
|
CYGSEM_IO_FLASH_CHATTER is disabled. The lower layers of the library
|
458 |
|
|
may unconditionally call this function, especially when errors occur,
|
459 |
|
|
probably resulting in a more serious error/crash!.
|
460 |
|
|
|
461 |
|
|
|
462 |
|
|
|
463 |
|
|
Retrieving information about the FLASH
|
464 |
|
|
|
465 |
|
|
|
466 |
|
|
The following four functions return information about the FLASH.
|
467 |
|
|
|
468 |
|
|
|
469 |
|
|
externC int flash_get_block_info(int *block_size, int *blocks);
|
470 |
|
|
externC int flash_get_limits(void *target, void **start, void **end);
|
471 |
|
|
externC int flash_verify_addr(void *target);
|
472 |
|
|
externC bool flash_code_overlaps(void *start, void *end);
|
473 |
|
|
|
474 |
|
|
|
475 |
|
|
|
476 |
|
|
The function flash_get_block_info() returns the
|
477 |
|
|
size and number of blocks. When the device has a mixture of block
|
478 |
|
|
sizes, the size of the "normal" block will be returned. Please read
|
479 |
|
|
the source code to determine exactly what this means.
|
480 |
|
|
flash_get_limits() returns the lower and upper
|
481 |
|
|
memory address the FLASH occupies. The target
|
482 |
|
|
parameter is current unused. flash_verify_addr()
|
483 |
|
|
tests if the target addresses is within the flash,
|
484 |
|
|
returning FLASH_ERR_OK if so. Lastly,
|
485 |
|
|
flash_code_overlaps() checks if the executing code is
|
486 |
|
|
resident in the section of flash indicated by
|
487 |
|
|
start and end. If this
|
488 |
|
|
function returns true, erase and program operations within this range
|
489 |
|
|
are very likely to cause the target to crash and burn horribly. Note
|
490 |
|
|
the FLASH library does allow you to shoot yourself in the foot in this
|
491 |
|
|
way.
|
492 |
|
|
|
493 |
|
|
|
494 |
|
|
|
495 |
|
|
|
496 |
|
|
Reading from FLASH
|
497 |
|
|
|
498 |
|
|
|
499 |
|
|
There are two methods for reading from FLASH. The first is to use the
|
500 |
|
|
following function.
|
501 |
|
|
|
502 |
|
|
|
503 |
|
|
externC int flash_read(void *flash_base, void *ram_base, int len, void **err_address);
|
504 |
|
|
|
505 |
|
|
|
506 |
|
|
|
507 |
|
|
flash_base is where in the flash to read
|
508 |
|
|
from. ram_base indicates where the data read
|
509 |
|
|
from flash should be placed into RAM. len is
|
510 |
|
|
the number of bytes to be read from the FLASH and
|
511 |
|
|
err_address is used to return the location in
|
512 |
|
|
FLASH that any error occurred while reading.
|
513 |
|
|
|
514 |
|
|
|
515 |
|
|
|
516 |
|
|
The second method is to simply memcpy() directly
|
517 |
|
|
from the FLASH. This is not recommended since some types of device
|
518 |
|
|
cannot be read in this way, eg NAND FLASH. Using the FLASH library
|
519 |
|
|
function to read the FLASH will always work so making it easy to port
|
520 |
|
|
code from one FLASH device to another.
|
521 |
|
|
|
522 |
|
|
|
523 |
|
|
|
524 |
|
|
|
525 |
|
|
|
526 |
|
|
Erasing areas of FLASH
|
527 |
|
|
|
528 |
|
|
|
529 |
|
|
Blocks of FLASH can be erased using the following function:
|
530 |
|
|
|
531 |
|
|
|
532 |
|
|
externC int flash_erase(void *flash_base, int len, void **err_address);
|
533 |
|
|
|
534 |
|
|
|
535 |
|
|
|
536 |
|
|
flash_base is where in the flash to erase
|
537 |
|
|
from. len is the minimum number of bytes to
|
538 |
|
|
erase in the FLASH and err_address is used to
|
539 |
|
|
return the location in FLASH that any error occurred while erasing. It
|
540 |
|
|
should be noted that FLASH devices are block oriented when erasing. It
|
541 |
|
|
is not possible to erase a few bytes within a block, the whole block
|
542 |
|
|
will be erased. flash_base may be anywhere
|
543 |
|
|
within the first block to be erased and flash_base+len
|
544 |
|
|
may be anywhere in the last block to be erased.
|
545 |
|
|
|
546 |
|
|
|
547 |
|
|
|
548 |
|
|
|
549 |
|
|
Programming the FLASH
|
550 |
|
|
|
551 |
|
|
Programming of the flash is achieved using the following
|
552 |
|
|
function.
|
553 |
|
|
|
554 |
|
|
externC int flash_program(void *flash_base, void *ram_base, int len, void **err_address);
|
555 |
|
|
|
556 |
|
|
|
557 |
|
|
|
558 |
|
|
flash_base is where in the flash to program
|
559 |
|
|
from. ram_base indicates where the data to be
|
560 |
|
|
programmed into FLASH should be read from in RAM. len
|
561 |
|
|
is the number of bytes to be program into the FLASH and
|
562 |
|
|
err_address is used to return the location in
|
563 |
|
|
FLASH that any error occurred while programming.
|
564 |
|
|
|
565 |
|
|
|
566 |
|
|
|
567 |
|
|
|
568 |
|
|
Locking and unlocking blocks
|
569 |
|
|
|
570 |
|
|
|
571 |
|
|
Some flash devices have the ability to lock and unlock blocks. A
|
572 |
|
|
locked block cannot be erased or programmed without it first being
|
573 |
|
|
unlocked. For devices which support this feature and when
|
574 |
|
|
CYGHWR_IO_FLASH_BLOCK_LOCKING is enabled then the following
|
575 |
|
|
two functions are available:
|
576 |
|
|
|
577 |
|
|
|
578 |
|
|
externC int flash_lock(void *flash_base, int len, void **err_address);
|
579 |
|
|
externC int flash_unlock(void *flash_base, int len, void **err_address);
|
580 |
|
|
|
581 |
|
|
|
582 |
|
|
|
583 |
|
|
|
584 |
|
|
|
585 |
|
|
Return values and errors
|
586 |
|
|
|
587 |
|
|
All the functions above, except flash_code_overlaps()
|
588 |
|
|
return one of the following return values.
|
589 |
|
|
|
590 |
|
|
|
591 |
|
|
FLASH_ERR_OK No error - operation complete
|
592 |
|
|
FLASH_ERR_INVALID Invalid FLASH address
|
593 |
|
|
FLASH_ERR_ERASE Error trying to erase
|
594 |
|
|
FLASH_ERR_LOCK Error trying to lock/unlock
|
595 |
|
|
FLASH_ERR_PROGRAM Error trying to program
|

|
FLASH_ERR_ERASE_SUSPEND Device is in erase suspend mode
|
601 |
|
|
FLASH_ERR_PROGRAM_SUSPEND Device is in program suspend mode
|
602 |
|
|
FLASH_ERR_DRV_VERIFY Driver failed to verify data

|
FLASH_ERR_LOW_VOLTAGE Not enough juice to complete job
|
606 |
|
|
|
607 |
|
|
|
608 |
|
|
To turn an error code into a human readable string the following
|
609 |
|
|
function can be used:
|
610 |
|
|
|
611 |
|
|
externC char *flash_errmsg(int err);
|
612 |
|
|
|

Notes on using the FLASH library
|
618 |
|
|
|
619 |
|
|
|
620 |
|
|
The FLASH library evolved from the needs and environment of RedBoot
|
621 |
|
|
rather than being a general purpose eCos component. This history
|
622 |
|
|
explains some of the problems with the library.
|
623 |
|
|
|
624 |
|
|
The library is not thread safe. Multiple simultaneous calls to
|
625 |
|
|
its library functions will likely fail and may cause a crash. It is
|
626 |
|
|
the callers responsibility to use the necessary mutex's if needed.
|
627 |
|
|
|

FLASH device API This section describes the API
|
634 |
|
|
between the FLASH IO library the FLASH device drivers.
|
635 |
|
|
|
636 |
|
|
|
637 |
|
|
The flash_info structure
|
638 |
|
|
|
639 |
|
|
The flash_infostructure is used by both
|
640 |
|
|
the FLASH IO library and the device driver.
|
641 |
|
|
struct flash_info {
|
642 |
|
|
int block_size; // Assuming fixed size "blocks"
|
643 |
|
|
int blocks; // Number of blocks
|
644 |
|
|
int buffer_size; // Size of write buffer (only defined for some devices)
|
645 |
|
|
unsigned long block_mask;
|
646 |
|
|
void *start, *end; // Address range
|
647 |
|
|
int init; // FLASH API initialised
|
648 |
|
|
_printf *pf; // printf like function for diagnostics
|
649 |
|
|
};
|
650 |
|
|
|
651 |
|
|
|
652 |
|
|
block_mask is used internally in the FLASH IO library. It
|
653 |
|
|
contains a mask which can be used to turn an arbitrary address in
|
654 |
|
|
flash to the base address of the block which contains the
|
655 |
|
|
address.
|
656 |
|
|
|
657 |
|
|
There exists one global instance of this structure with the name
|
658 |
|
|
flash_info. All calls into the device driver
|
659 |
|
|
makes use of this global structure to maintain state.
|
660 |
|
|
|
661 |
|
|
|
662 |
|
|
|
663 |
|
|
|
664 |
|
|
Initializing the device driver
|
665 |
|
|
|
666 |
|
|
The FLASH IO library will call the following function to
|
667 |
|
|
initialize the device driver:
|
668 |
|
|
|
669 |
|
|
externC int flash_hwr_init(void);
|
670 |
|
|
|
671 |
|
|
|
672 |
|
|
The device driver should probe the hardware to see if the FLASH
|
673 |
|
|
devices exist. If it does it should fill in start, end,
|
674 |
|
|
blocks and block_size.If the FLASH contains a write buffer
|
675 |
|
|
the size of this should be placed in buffer_size
|
676 |
|
|
. On successful probing the function should return
|
677 |
|
|
FLASH_ERR_OK. When things go wrong it can be
|
678 |
|
|
assumed that pf points to a printf like
|
679 |
|
|
function for outputting error messages.
|
680 |
|
|
|
681 |
|
|
|
682 |
|
|
|
683 |
|
|
|
684 |
|
|
Querying the FLASH
|
685 |
|
|
|
686 |
|
|
FLASH devices can be queried to return there manufacture ID,
|
687 |
|
|
size etc. This function allows this information to be returned.
|
688 |
|
|
|
689 |
|
|
int flash_query(unsigned char *data);
|
690 |
|
|
|
691 |
|
|
The caller must know the size of data to be returned and provide
|
692 |
|
|
an appropriately sized buffer pointed to be parameter
|
693 |
|
|
data. This function is generally used by
|
694 |
|
|
flash_hwr_init().
|
695 |
|
|
|
696 |
|
|
|
697 |
|
|
|
698 |
|
|
Erasing a block of FLASH
|
699 |
|
|
|
700 |
|
|
So that the FLASH IO layer can erase a block of FLASH the
|
701 |
|
|
following function should be provided.
|
702 |
|
|
|
703 |
|
|
int flash_erase_block(volatile flash_t *block, unsigned int block_size);
|
704 |
|
|
|
705 |
|
|
|
706 |
|
|
|
707 |
|
|
|
708 |
|
|
Programming a region of FLASH
|
709 |
|
|
|
710 |
|
|
The following function must be provided so that data can be
|
711 |
|
|
written into the FLASH.
|
712 |
|
|
|
713 |
|
|
int flash_program_buf(volatile flash_t *addr, flash_t *data, int len,
|
714 |
|
|
unsigned long block_mask, int buffer_size);
|
715 |
|
|
|
716 |
|
|
The device will only be asked to program data in one block of
|
717 |
|
|
the flash. The FLASH IO layer will break longer user requests into a
|
718 |
|
|
smaller writes.
|
719 |
|
|
|
720 |
|
|
|
721 |
|
|
|
722 |
|
|
|
723 |
|
|
Reading a region from FLASH
|
724 |
|
|
|
725 |
|
|
Some FLASH devices are not memory mapped so it is not possible
|
726 |
|
|
to read there contents directly. The following function read a region
|
727 |
|
|
of FLASH.
|
728 |
|
|
|
729 |
|
|
int flash_read_buf(volatile flash_t* addr, flash_t* data, int len);
|
730 |
|
|
|
731 |
|
|
|
732 |
|
|
As with writing to the flash, the FLASH IO layer will break
|
733 |
|
|
longer user requests for data into a number of reads which are at
|
734 |
|
|
maximum one block in size.
|
735 |
|
|
|
736 |
|
|
A device which cannot be read directy should set
|
737 |
|
|
CYGSEM_IO_FLASH_READ_INDIRECT so that the IO layer
|
738 |
|
|
makes use of the flash_read_buf()function.
|
739 |
|
|
|
740 |
|
|
|
741 |
|
|
|
742 |
|
|
|
743 |
|
|
Locking and unlocking FLASH blocks
|
744 |
|
|
|
745 |
|
|
Some flash devices allow blocks to be locked so that they cannot
|
746 |
|
|
be written to. The device driver should provide the following
|
747 |
|
|
functions to manipulate these locks.
|
748 |
|
|
|
749 |
|
|
int flash_lock_block(volatile flash_t *block);
|
750 |
|
|
int flash_unlock_block(volatile flash_t *block, int block_size, int blocks);
|
751 |
|
|
|
752 |
|
|
|
753 |
|
|
These functions are only used if
|
754 |
|
|
CYGHWR_IO_FLASH_BLOCK_LOCKING
|
755 |
|
|
|
756 |
|
|
|
757 |
|
|
|
758 |
|
|
|
759 |
|
|
Mapping FLASH error codes to FLASH IO error codes
|
760 |
|
|
|
761 |
|
|
The functions flash_erase_block(),
|
762 |
|
|
flash_program_buf(), flash_read_buf(), flash_lock_block() and
|
763 |
|
|
flash_unlock_block() return an error code which is specific
|
764 |
|
|
to the flash device. To map this into a FLASH IO error code, the
|
765 |
|
|
driver should provide the following function:
|
766 |
|
|
|
767 |
|
|
int flash_hwr_map_error(int err);
|
768 |
|
|
|
769 |
|
|
|
770 |
|
|
|
771 |
|
|
|
772 |
|
|
Determining if code is in FLASH
|
773 |
|
|
|
774 |
|
|
Although a general function, the device driver is expected to
|
775 |
|
|
provide the implementation of the function
|
776 |
|
|
flash_code_overlaps().
|
777 |
|
|
|
778 |
|
|
|
779 |
|
|
|
780 |
|
|
|
781 |
|
|
Implementation Notes
|
782 |
|
|
|
783 |
|
|
The FLASH IO layer will manipulate the caches as required. The
|
784 |
|
|
device drivers do not need to enable/disable caches when performing
|
785 |
|
|
operations of the FLASH.
|
786 |
|
|
|
787 |
|
|
Device drivers should keep all chatter to a minimum when
|
788 |
|
|
CYGSEM_IO_FLASH_CHATTER is not defined. All output
|
789 |
|
|
should use the print function in the pf in
|
790 |
|
|
flash_info and not
|
791 |
|
|
diag_printf()
|
792 |
|
|
|
793 |
|
|
Device driver functions which manipulate the state of the flash
|
794 |
|
|
so that it cannot be read from for program execute need to ensure
|
795 |
|
|
there code is placed into RAM. The linker will do this if the
|
796 |
|
|
appropriate attribute is added to the function. e.g:
|
797 |
|
|
|
798 |
|
|
int flash_program_buf(volatile flash_t *addr, flash_t *data, int len,
|
799 |
|
|
unsigned long block_mask, int buffer_size)
|
800 |
|
|
__attribute__ ((section (".2ram.flash_program_buf")));
|
801 |
|
|
|
802 |
|
|
|
803 |
|
|
|
804 |
|
|
|
805 |
|
|
|
806 |
|
|
|
807 |
|
|
FLASH I/O devices
|
808 |
|
|
|
809 |
|
|
|
810 |
|
|
It can be useful to be able to access FLASH devices using the generic
|
811 |
|
|
I/O infrastructure found in CYGPKG_IO, and the generic
|
812 |
|
|
FLASH layer provides an optional ability to do so. This allows
|
813 |
|
|
the use of functions like cyg_io_lookup(),
|
814 |
|
|
cyg_io_read(),
|
815 |
|
|
cyg_io_write() etc.
|
816 |
|
|
|
817 |
|
|
Additionally it means that, courtesy of the
|
818 |
|
|
“devfs” pseudo-filesystem in the file I/O layer
|
819 |
|
|
(CYGPKG_IO_FILEIO), functions like
|
820 |
|
|
open(), read(),
|
821 |
|
|
write() etc. can even be used directly
|
822 |
|
|
on the FLASH devices.

Overview and CDL Configuration
|
827 |
|
|
|
828 |
|
|
|
829 |
|
|
This package implements support for FLASH as an I/O device by exporting
|
830 |
|
|
it as if it is a block device. To enable this support, the CDL option
|
831 |
|
|
titled “Provide /dev block devices”, also known as
|
832 |
|
|
CYGPKG_IO_FLASH_BLOCK_DEVICE, must be enabled.
|
833 |
|
|
(There is also a legacy format alternative which is now deprecated).
|
834 |
|
|
|
835 |
|
|
|
836 |
|
|
There are two methods of addressing FLASH as a block device:
|
837 |
|
|
|
838 |
|
|
|
839 |
|
|
Using the FLASH Information System (FIS) - this is a
|
840 |
|
|
method of defining and naming FLASH partitions, usually in RedBoot.
|
841 |
|
|
This option is only valid if RedBoot is resident and was used to
|
842 |
|
|
boot the application. To reference FLASH partitions in this way,
|
843 |
|
|
you would use a device name of the form
|
844 |
|
|
/dev/flash/fis/partition-name,
|
845 |
|
|
for example /dev/flash/fis/jffs2 to reference a
|
846 |
|
|
FIS partition named JFFS2.
|
847 |
|
|
|
848 |
|
|
The CDL option CYGFUN_IO_FLASH_BLOCK_FROM_FIS
|
849 |
|
|
must be enabled for this support.
|
850 |
|
|
|
851 |
|
|
|
852 |
|
|
Referencing by device number, offset and length - this
|
853 |
|
|
method extracts addressing information from the name itself. The form
|
854 |
|
|
of the device would be
|
855 |
|
|
/dev/flash/device-number/offset[,length]
|
856 |
|
|
|
857 |
|
|
|
858 |
|
|
device-number
|
859 |
|
|
|
860 |
|
|
This is a fixed number allocated to identify each FLASH
|
861 |
|
|
region in the system. The first region is numbered 0, the second 1,
|
862 |
|
|
and so on. If you have only one FLASH device, it will be numbered 0.
|
863 |
|
|
|
864 |
|
|
|
865 |
|
|
offset
|
866 |
|
|
This is the index into the FLASH region in bytes to use. It
|
867 |
|
|
may be specified as decimal, or if prefixed with
|
868 |
|
|
0x, then hexadecimal.
|
869 |
|
|
|
870 |
|
|
length
|
871 |
|
|
This field is optional and defaults to the remainder
|
872 |
|
|
of the FLASH region. Again it may be specified in decimal or
|
873 |
|
|
hexadecimal.
|
874 |
|
|
|
875 |
|
|
|
876 |
|
|
|
877 |
|
|
Some examples:
|
878 |
|
|
|
879 |
|
|
/dev/flash/0/0
|
880 |
|
|
This defines a block device that uses the entirety of
|
881 |
|
|
FLASH region 0.
|
882 |
|
|
|
883 |
|
|
/dev/flash/1/0x20000,65536
|
884 |
|
|
This defines a block device which points inside FLASH region 1,
|
885 |
|
|
starting at offset 0x20000 (128Kb) and extending for 64Kb.
|
886 |
|
|
|
887 |
|
|
/dev/flash/0/65536
|
888 |
|
|
This defines a block device which points inside FLASH region 0,
|
889 |
|
|
starting at offset 64Kb and continuing up to the end of the device.
|
890 |
|
|
|
891 |
|
|
|
892 |
|
|
|
893 |
|
|
|
894 |
|
|
Obviously great care is required when constructing the device names as
|
895 |
|
|
using the wrong specification may subsequently overwrite important areas
|
896 |
|
|
of FLASH, such as RedBoot. Using the alternative via FIS names is
|
897 |
|
|
preferable as these are less error-prone to configure, and also allows for
|
898 |
|
|
the FLASH region to be relocated without requiring program recompilation.
|
899 |
|
|
|
900 |
|
|
|
901 |
|
|
|
902 |
|
|
|
903 |
|
|
|
904 |
|
|
Using FLASH I/O devices
|
905 |
|
|
|
906 |
|
|
The FLASH I/O block devices can be accessed, read and written using
|
907 |
|
|
the standard interface supplied by the generic I/O
|
908 |
|
|
(CYGPKG_IO) package. These include the functions:
|
909 |
|
|
cyg_io_lookup() to access the device and get a
|
910 |
|
|
handle, cyg_io_read() and
|
911 |
|
|
cyg_io_write() for sequential read and write
|
912 |
|
|
operations, cyg_io_bread() and
|
913 |
|
|
cyg_io_bwrite() for random access read and write
|
914 |
|
|
operations, and cyg_io_get_config() and
|
915 |
|
|
cyg_io_setconfig() for run-time configuration
|
916 |
|
|
inspection and control.
|
917 |
|
|
|
918 |
|
|
|
919 |
|
|
However there are two aspects that differ from some other I/O devices
|
920 |
|
|
accessed this way:
|
921 |
|
|
|
922 |
|
|
|
923 |
|
|
The first is that the lookup operation uses up
|
924 |
|
|
resources which must be subsequently freed when the last user of the
|
925 |
|
|
I/O handle is finished. The number of FLASH I/O devices that may be
|
926 |
|
|
simultaneously opened is configured with the
|
927 |
|
|
CYGNUM_IO_FLASH_BLOCK_DEVICES CDL option. After the
|
928 |
|
|
last user is finished, the device may be closed using
|
929 |
|
|
cyg_io_setconfig() with the
|
930 |
|
|
CYG_IO_SET_CONFIG_CLOSE key. Reference counting to
|
931 |
|
|
ensure that it is only the last user that causes a close, is left to
|
932 |
|
|
higher layers.
|
933 |
|
|
|
934 |
|
|
The second is that write operations assume that the
|
935 |
|
|
flash is already erased. Attempting to write to Flash that has
|
936 |
|
|
already been written to may result in errors. Instead FLASH must
|
937 |
|
|
be erased before it may be written.
|
938 |
|
|
|
939 |
|
|
|
940 |
|
|
FLASH block devices can also be read and written using the
|
941 |
|
|
standard POSIX primitives, open(),
|
942 |
|
|
close(), read(),
|
943 |
|
|
write(), lseek(), and so on
|
944 |
|
|
if the POSIX file I/O package (CYGPKG_FILEIO) is
|
945 |
|
|
included in the configuration. As with the eCos generic I/O interface
|
946 |
|
|
you must call close() to ensure resources
|
947 |
|
|
are freed when the device is no longer used.
|
948 |
|
|
|
949 |
|
|
Other configuration keys are provided to perform FLASH erase
|
950 |
|
|
operations, and to retrieve device sizes, and FLASH block sizes at
|
951 |
|
|
a particular address. These operations are accessed with
|
952 |
|
|
cyg_io_get_config() (or if using the POSIX
|
953 |
|
|
file I/O API, cyg_fs_getinfo()) with the
|
954 |
|
|
following keys:
|
955 |
|
|
|
956 |
|
|
|
957 |
|
|
CYG_IO_GET_CONFIG_FLASH_ERASE
|
958 |
|
|
This erases a region of FLASH.
|
959 |
|
|
cyg_io_get_config() must be passed a
|
960 |
|
|
structure defined as per the following, which is also supplied
|
961 |
|
|
in <cyg/io/flash.h>:

|
the offset within the block device to erase, len
|
973 |
|
|
specifies the amount to address, flasherr is
|
974 |

the offset within the block device to lock, len
|
995 |
|
|
specifies the amount to address, flasherr is
|
996 |

CYG_IO_GET_CONFIG_FLASH_DEVSIZE
|
1028 |
|
|
This returns the size of the FLASH block device. The
|
1029 |
|
|
cyg_io_get_config() function must be passed a
|
1030 |
|
|
structure defined as per the following, which is also supplied
|
1031 |
|
|
in <cyg/io/flash.h>:
|
1032 |
|
|
|
1033 |
|
|
typedef struct {
|
1034 |
|
|
size_t dev_size;

} cyg_io_flash_getconfig_devsize_t;
|
1036 |
|
|
|
1037 |
|
|
|
1038 |
|
|
In this structure, dev_size is used to
|
1039 |
|
|
return the size of the FLASH device.

CYG_IO_GET_CONFIG_FLASH_DEVADDR
|
1043 |
|
|
This returns the address in the virtual memory map that the
|
1044 |
|
|
generic flash layer has been informed that this FLASH device is mapped to. Note
|
1045 |
|
|
that some flash devices such as dataflash are not truly memory mapped,
|
1046 |
|
|
and so this function only returns useful information when used with a true
|
1047 |
|
|
memory mapped FLASH device. The
|
1048 |
|
|
cyg_io_get_config() function must be passed a
|
1049 |
|
|
structure defined as per the following, which is also supplied
|
1050 |
|
|
in <cyg/io/flash.h>:
|
1051 |
|
|
|
1052 |
|
|
typedef struct {
|
1053 |
|
|
cyg_flashaddr_t dev_addr;
|
1054 |
|
|
} cyg_io_flash_getconfig_devaddr_t;
|
1055 |
|
|
|
1056 |
|
|
|
1057 |
|
|
In this structure, dev_addr is used to
|
1058 |
|
|
return the address corresponding to the base of the FLASH device in the
|
1059 |
|
|
virtual memory map.

1062 |
|
|
CYG_IO_GET_CONFIG_FLASH_BLOCKSIZE
|
1063 |
|
|
This returns the size of a FLASH block at a
|
1064 |
|
|
supplied offset in the FLASH block device. The
|
1065 |
|
|
cyg_io_get_config() function must be passed a
|
1066 |
|
|
structure defined as per the following, which is also supplied
|
1067 |
|
|
in <cyg/io/flash.h>:
|
1068 |
|
|
|
1069 |
|
|
typedef struct {
|
1070 |
|
|
CYG_ADDRESS offset;
|
1071 |
|
|
size_t block_size;
|
1072 |
|
|
} cyg_io_flash_getconfig_blocksize_t;
|
1073 |
|
|
|
1074 |
|
|
|
1075 |
|
|
In this structure, offset specifies the
|
1076 |
|
|
address within the block device of which the FLASH block size is
|
1077 |
|
|
required - a single FLASH device may contain blocks of differing
|
1078 |
|
|
sizes. The block_size field is used to
|
1079 |
|
|
return the block size at the specified offset.
