           Summary: Usage of block locking in the flash library
           Product: eCos
           Version: unknown
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: ARM
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: low
         Component: Flash
        AssignedTo: unassigned@bugs.ecos.sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: brauner@tmg-karlsruhe.de
                CC: ecos-bugs@ecos.sourceware.org
             Class: Advice Request


I am using the Intel flash 28F128P33 which requires block unlocking and locking
when erasing and programming.

I have seen that after configuration there are two functions flash_lock and
flash_unlock which are now activated.

The generic flash library does not use these functions. Is there any solution
that the flash library does automatically unlock and lock the blocks which are
to be written or erased ?

Or do I have to change my application to use the new functions.

The problem is that we have a huge software package which is not using these
functions, and our customer has designed a locking device in his hardware.
Would be nice to configure the Flash library to auto-unlock and -lock.

Thanks,
Dirk
