Subject: [ECOS] flash erase and bootblocks
Date: Mon, 09 May 2005 14:08:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <427F303D.8000806@carallon.com> (raw)

Hi All,

I have a question about support for smaller bootblock sectors when 
erasing/programming flash.

I have a driver for AMD AM29DL323D flash chips all working nicely. These 
chips have 8 smaller sectors at the beginning of flash.

The erase and program routines in flash_am29xxxx.inl have support for 
the smaller bootblocks. However the flash_erase function in flash.c 
doesn't support the bootblocks so if I try to erase just one of the 
smaller sectors it erases all of them at once.

Anyone got any suggestions on how to get round this? Otherwise I guess 
I'll have to alter flash_erase to suit my needs.

Mnay thanks,
Will Wagner
