        description "
            On typical hardware erasing or programming a flash block requires
            disabling interrupts and possibly the cache. During these operations
            some or all of the flash hardware will be unusable, and disabling
            interrupts is the only reliable way of ensuring that no interrupt
            handler or other thread will try to access the flash in the middle
            of the operation. This can have a major impact on the real-time
            responsiveness of typical applications.

            In some circumstances it is possible to leave interrupts enabled.
            The application must run in RAM, not in flash. There must be some
            way of accessing the flash which bypasses the cache. The application
            must only access the flash using the proper API, for example
            cyg_flash_read(), which ensures that only one thread at a time can
            access a flash device. Finally there must be no possibility of
            entering a ROM monitor running in flash. This can happen if RedBoot
            is used as the ROM monitor and virtual vectors are enabled. It can
            also happen when debugging the application via RedBoot or gdb stubs.

            If the application can absolutely guarantee that the flash will not be
            accessed during a flash operation then it is possible to enable this option,
            improving interrupt latency. Any unexpected flash accesses are likely
            to cause a system crash. If in doubt leave this option disabled."

        description "
            Flash memory devices are usually accessed via the cache to achieve
            acceptable performance. However erase and program operations need
            to access the flash directly, bypassing the cache. On some targets
            it is possible to access the flash in an uncached part of the
            address space, for example by suitable MMU settings. On other
            targets it is necessary to disable the cache while erasing or
            programming blocks of flash. In the latter case the platform HAL
            will implement this interface."

          requiring extra code within the device driver. If CFI is used for device
          initialization and if the platform may come with one of these flash chips

           parts which are nearly but not quite compatible, such as AT49xxxxx,
           this does not happen, and so an erase/program resume command is

        description "
            Flash devices vary widely in the way the various flash blocks are
            laid out. In uniform devices all flash blocks are the same size,
            for example 64 blocks of 64K each. Other devices have a boot block,
            where one of the big blocks is subdivided into a number of smaller
            ones. For example there could be a 16K block, followed by two 8K blocks,
            then a 32K block, and finally 63 64K blocks. Each sequence of blocks
            of a given size is known as an erase region, so a uniform device has
            a single erase region and the above boot block device has four
            erase regions. The driver needs to know the maximum number of erase
            regions that may be present, especially if CFI is used to determine
            the block details at run-time. Typically this option is controlled
            by a requires property in the platform HAL, so users do not need
            to edit it."
