Underlying storage
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
Currently NVS uses a portion of main flash memory through ``spi_flash_{read|write|erase}`` APIs. The library uses the all the partitions with ``data`` type and ``nvs`` subtype. The application can choose to use the partition with label ``nvs`` through ``nvs_open`` API or any of the other partition by specifying its name through ``nvs_open_from_part`` API.

Future versions of this library may add other storage backends to keep data in another flash chip (SPI or I2C), RTC, FRAM, etc.

|
||||
|
||||
.. note:: if an NVS partition is truncated (for example, when the partition table layout is changed), its contents should be erased. ESP-IDF build system provides a ``make erase_flash`` target to erase all contents of the flash chip.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note:: NVS works best for storing many small values, rather than a few large values of type 'string' and 'blob'. If storing large blobs or strings is required, consider using the facilities provided by the FAT filesystem on top of the wear levelling library.

Keys and values

NVS operates on key-value pairs. Keys are ASCII strings, maximum key length is currently 15 characters. Values can have one of the following types:

NVS operates on key-value pairs. Keys are ASCII strings; the maximum key length is currently 15 characters. Values can have one of the following types:
|
||||
|

- integer types: ``uint8_t``, ``int8_t``, ``uint16_t``, ``int16_t``, ``uint32_t``, ``int32_t``, ``uint64_t``, ``int64_t``
|
||||
- zero-terminated string
|
||||
- variable length binary data (blob)
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
String values are currently limited to 4000 bytes. This includes the null terminator. Blob values are limited to 508000 bytes or (97.6% of the partition size - 4000) bytes whichever is lower.
|
||||
|
||||
Additional types, such as ``float`` and ``double`` may be added later.

|

|

Keys are required to be unique. Writing a value for a key which already exists behaves as follows:
|
||||
Additional types, such as ``float`` and ``double`` might be added later.

- if the new value is of the same type as old one, value is updated
|

- if the new value has different data type, an error is returned

Keys are required to be unique. Assigning a new value to an existing key works as follows:

|
||||
- if the new value has a different data type, an error is returned
|
||||
|
||||
Data type check is also performed when reading a value. An error is returned if the data type of the read operation does not match the data type of the value.

Namespaces
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
To mitigate potential conflicts in key names between different components, NVS assigns each key-value pair to one of namespaces. Namespace names follow the same rules as key names, i.e. 15 character maximum length. Namespace name is specified in the ``nvs_open`` or ``nvs_open_from_part`` call. This call returns an opaque handle, which is used in subsequent calls to ``nvs_read_*``, ``nvs_write_*``, and ``nvs_commit`` functions. This way, handle is associated with a namespace, and key names will not collide with same names in other namespaces.
|
||||
Please note that the namespaces with same name in different NVS partitions are considered as separate namespaces.

Security, tampering, and robustness
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
NVS is not directly compatible with the ESP32 flash encryption system. However, data can still be stored in encrypted form if NVS encryption is used together with ESP32 flash encryption. Please refer to :ref:`nvs_encryption` for more details.
|
||||
|
||||
If NVS encryption is not used, it is possible for anyone with physical access to the flash chip to alter, erase, or add key-value pairs. With NVS encryption enabled, it is not possible to alter or add a key-value pair and get recognized as a valid pair without knowing corresponding NVS encryption keys. However, there is no tamper-resistance against erase operation.

However, there is no tamper-resistance against the erase operation.
|
||||
|
||||
The library does try to recover from conditions when flash memory is in an inconsistent state. In particular, one should be able to power off the device at any point and time and then power it back on. This should not result in loss of data, except for the new key-value pair if it was being written at the moment of powering off. The library should also be able to initialize properly with any random data present in flash memory.

|

NVS library uses two main entities in its operation: pages and entries. Page is a logical structure which stores a portion of the overall log. Logical page corresponds to one physical sector of flash memory. Pages which are in use have a *sequence number* associated with them. Sequence numbers impose an ordering on pages. Higher sequence numbers correspond to pages which were created later. Each page can be in one of the following states:
|
||||
|
||||
Empty/uninitialized
|

Flash storage for the page is empty (all bytes are ``0xff``). Page isn't used to store any data at this point and doesn’t have a sequence number.

Page consists of three parts: header, entry state bitmap, and entries themselves. To be compatible with ESP32 flash encryption, entry size is 32 bytes. For integer types, entry holds one key-value pair. For strings and blobs, an entry holds part of key-value pair (more on that in the entry structure description).

To reduce the number of reads performed from flash memory, each member of Page class maintains a list of pairs: (item index; item hash). This list makes searches much quicker.

This gives the item index within the page, if such an item exists. Due to a hash collision it is possible that a different item will be found. This is handled by falling back to iteration over items in flash.

Data stored in NVS partitions can be encrypted using AES-XTS in the manner similar to one mentioned in disc encryption standard IEEE P1619. For the purpose of encryption, each entry is considered as one `sector` and relative address of the entry (w.r.t. partition-start) is fed to the encryption algorithm as `sector-number`. The keys required for nvs encryption are stored in yet another partition, which is protected using :doc:`Flash Encryption <../../security/flash-encryption>`. Therefore, enabling :doc:`Flash Encryption <../../security/flash-encryption>` is a prerequisite for NVS encryption.

This partition can be generated using `nvs partition generator` utility and flashed onto the device. Since the partition is marked `encrypted` and :doc:`Flash Encryption <../../security/flash-encryption>` is enabled, bootloader will encrypt this partition using flash encryption key on the first boot. Alternatively, the keys can be generated after startup using the ``nvs_flash_generate_keys`` API function provided by ``nvs_flash.h``, which will then write those keys onto the key-partition in encrypted form.
|
||||
|
||||
It is possible for an application to use different keys for different NVS partitions and thereby have multiple key-partitions. However, it is a responsibility of the application to provide correct key-partition/keys for the purpose of encryption/decryption.
|
||||
|
||||
Encrypted Read/Write
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
The same NVS APIs ``nvs_read_*`` or ``nvs_write_*`` can be used for reading and writing of encrypted nvs partition as well. However, the APIs for initialising NVS partitions are different. ``nvs_flash_secure_init`` and ``nvs_flash_secure_init_partition`` are used for initialising instead of ``nvs_flash_init`` and ``nvs_flash_init_partition`` respectively. ``nvs_sec_cfg_t`` structure required for these APIs can be populated using ``nvs_flash_generate_keys`` or ``nvs_flash_read_security_cfg``.

NVS iterators
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
Iterators allow to list key-value pairs stored in NVS based on specified partition name, namespace and data type. ``nvs_entry_find`` returns an opaque handle, which is used in subsequent calls to ``nvs_entry_next`` and ``nvs_entry_info`` function. ``nvs_entry_next`` function returns iterator to the next key-value pair. If none or no other key-value pair was found for given criteria, ``nvs_entry_find`` and ``nvs_entry_next`` functions return NULL. In that case, iterator does not have to be released. Otherwise, ``nvs_release_iterator`` function has to be used, when iterator is no longer needed. Information about each key-value pair can be obtained from ``nvs_entry_info`` function.

||||
Iterators allow to list key-value pairs stored in NVS, based on specified partition name, namespace, and data type.
|

There are the following functions available:
|
||||
|
||||
- ``nvs_entry_find`` returns an opaque handle, which is used in subsequent calls to the ``nvs_entry_next`` and ``nvs_entry_info`` functions.
|
||||
- ``nvs_entry_next`` returns iterator to the next key-value pair.
|
||||
- ``nvs_entry_info`` returns information about each key-value pair
|
||||
|
||||
If none or no other key-value pair was found for given criteria, ``nvs_entry_find`` and ``nvs_entry_next`` return NULL. In that case, the iterator does not have to be released. If the iterator is no longer needed, you can release it by using the function ``nvs_release_iterator``.

Introduction
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
:component_file:`nvs_flash/nvs_partition_generator/nvs_partition_gen.py` utility is designed to help create a binary file, compatible with NVS architecture defined in :doc:`Non-Volatile Storage </api-reference/storage/nvs_flash>`, based on user provided key-value pairs in a CSV file.
|
||||
Utility is ideally suited for generating a binary blob, containing data specific to ODM/OEM, which can be flashed externally at the time of device manufacturing. This helps manufacturers set unique value for various parameters for each device, e.g. serial number, while using same application firmware for all devices.

The spi_flash component contains APIs related to reading, writing, erasing,

||||
|
||||
Note that all the functionality is limited to the "main" SPI flash chip,

the same SPI flash chip from which program runs. For ``spi_flash_*`` functions,
|

this is a software limitation. The underlying ROM functions which work with SPI flash

do not have provisions for working with flash chips attached to SPI peripherals
|
||||
other than SPI0.

|
||||
- :cpp:func:`spi_flash_read` used to read data from flash to RAM

- :cpp:func:`spi_flash_write` used to write data from RAM to flash
|

SPI Flash Size
|

--------------
|
||||
|
||||
The SPI flash size is configured by writing a field in the software bootloader
|
||||
image header, flashed at offset 0x1000.
|
||||
The SPI flash size is configured by writing a field in the software bootloader image header, flashed at offset 0x1000.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, the SPI flash size is detected by esptool.py when this bootloader is
|
||||
written to flash, and the header is updated with the correct
|
||||
size. Alternatively, it is possible to generate a fixed flash size by setting
|
||||
:envvar:`CONFIG_ESPTOOLPY_FLASHSIZE` in ``make menuconfig``.

|
||||
|
||||
If it is necessary to override the configured flash size at runtime, is is
|
||||
possible to set the ``chip_size`` member of ``g_rom_flashchip`` structure. This
|
||||
size is used by ``spi_flash_*`` functions (in both software & ROM) for bounds
|
||||
checking.

|
||||
Concurrency Constraints
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Because the SPI flash is also used for firmware execution (via the instruction &
|
||||
data caches), these caches must be disabled while reading/writing/erasing. This
|
||||
means that both CPUs must be running code from IRAM and only reading data from
|
||||
DRAM while flash write operations occur.

|
||||
If you use the APIs documented here, then this happens automatically and
|

transparently. However note that it will have some performance impact on other
|
||||
tasks in the system.

|
||||
|
||||
This component allows C library functions, such as fopen and fprintf, to work with FS drivers. At high level, each FS driver is associated with some path prefix. When one of C library functions needs to open a file, VFS component searches for the FS driver associated with the file's path, and forwards the call to that driver. VFS also forwards read, write, and other calls for the given file to the same FS driver.

|

For example, one can register a FAT filesystem driver with the ``/fat`` prefix and call ``fopen("/fat/file.txt", "w")``. The VFS component will then call the function ``open`` of the FAT driver and pass the argument ``/file.txt`` to it together with appropriate mode flags. All subsequent calls to C library functions for the returned ``FILE*`` stream will also be forwarded to the FAT driver.

Standard IO streams (stdin, stdout, stderr)

||||
-------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
If "UART for console output" menuconfig option is not set to "None", then ``stdin``, ``stdout``, and ``stderr`` are configured to read from, and write to, a UART. It is possible to use UART0 or UART1 for standard IO. By default, UART0 is used, with 115200 baud rate, TX pin is GPIO1 and RX pin is GPIO3. These parameters can be changed in menuconfig.

|
||||
|
||||
Writing to ``stdout`` or ``stderr`` will send characters to the UART transmit FIFO. Reading from ``stdin`` will retrieve characters from the UART receive FIFO.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, VFS uses simple functions for reading from and writing to UART. Writes busy-wait until all data is put into UART FIFO, and reads are non-blocking, returning only the data present in the FIFO. Because of this non-blocking read behavior, higher level C library calls, such as ``fscanf("%d\n", &var);`` may not have desired results.

VFS also provides optional newline conversion feature for input and output. Internally, most applications send and receive lines terminated by LF (''\n'') character. Different terminal programs may require different line termination, such as CR or CRLF. Applications can configure this separately for input and output either via menuconfig, or by calls to ``esp_vfs_dev_uart_set_rx_line_endings`` and ``esp_vfs_dev_uart_set_tx_line_endings`` functions.

|

where the ``__getreent()`` function returns a per-task pointer to ``struct _reent`` (:component_file:`newlib/include/sys/reent.h#L370-L417`). This structure is allocated on the TCB of each task. When a task is initialized, ``_stdin``, ``_stdout`` and ``_stderr`` members of ``struct _reent`` are set to the values of ``_stdin``, ``_stdout`` and ``_stderr`` of ``_GLOBAL_REENT`` (i.e. the structure which is used before FreeRTOS is started).

Such a design has the following consequences:
|
||||
|
||||
- It is possible to set ``stdin``, ``stdout``, and ``stderr`` for any given task without affecting other tasks, e.g. by doing ``stdin = fopen("/dev/uart/1", "r")``.
|
||||
- Closing default ``stdin``, ``stdout``, or ``stderr`` using ``fclose`` will close the ``FILE`` stream object — this will affect all other tasks.

Wear Levelling APIs

===================
|
||||
Wear Levelling API
|
||||
==================
|
||||
|
||||
Overview
|
||||
--------
|
||||
Most of the flash devices and specially SPI flash devices that are used in ESP32
|
||||
have sector based organization and have limited amount of erase/modification cycles
|
||||
per memory sector. To avoid situation when one sector reach the limit of erases when
|
||||
other sectors was used not often, we have made a component that avoid this situation.
|
||||
The wear levelling component share the amount of erases between all sectors in the
|
||||
memory without user interaction.
|
||||
The wear_levelling component contains APIs related to reading, writing, erasing,
|
||||
memory mapping data in the external SPI flash through the partition component. It
|
||||
also has higher-level APIs which work with FAT filesystem defined in
|
||||
the :doc:`FAT filesystem </api-reference/storage/fatfs>`.
|
||||
Most of flash memory and especially SPI flash that is used in ESP32 has a sector-based organization and also has a limited number of erase/modification cycles per memory sector. The wear levelling component helps to distribute wear and tear among sectors more evenly without requiring any attention from the user.
|
||||
|
||||
The wear levelling component, together with FAT FS component, works with FAT FS sector size 4096
|
||||
bytes which is standard size of the flash devices. In this mode the component has best performance,
|
||||
but needs additional memoty in the RAM. To save internal memory the component has two additional modes
|
||||
to work with sector size 512 bytes: Performance and Safety modes. In Performance mode by erase sector
|
||||
operation data will be stored to the RAM, sector will be erased and then data will be stored
|
||||
back to the flash. If by this operation power off situation will occur, the complete 4096 bytes
|
||||
will be lost. To prevent this the Safety mode was implemented. In safety mode the data will be first
|
||||
stored to the flash and after sector will be erased, will be stored back. If power off situation will
|
||||
occur, after power on, the data will be recovered.
|
||||
By default defined the sector size 512 bytes and Performance mode. To change these values please use
|
||||
the configuration menu.
|
||||
The wear levelling component provides API functions related to reading, writing, erasing, and memory mapping of data in external SPI flash through the partition component. The component also has higher-level API functions which work with the FAT filesystem defined in :doc:`FAT filesystem </api-reference/storage/fatfs>`.
|
||||
|
||||
The wear levelling component, together with the FAT FS component, uses FAT FS sectors of 4096 bytes, which is a standard size for flash memory. With this size, the component shows the best performance but needs additional memory in RAM.
|
||||
|
||||
To save internal memory, the component has two additional modes which both use sectors of 512 bytes:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Performance mode.** Erase sector operation data is stored in RAM, the sector is erased, and then data is copied back to flash memory. However, if a device is powered off for any reason, all 4096 bytes of data is lost.
|
||||
- **Safety mode.** The data is first saved to flash memory, and after the sector is erased, the data is saved back. If a device is powered off, the data can be recovered as soon as the device boots up.
|
||||
|
||||
The default settings are as follows:
|
||||
- Sector size is 512 bytes
|
||||
- Performance mode
|
||||
|
||||
You can change the settings through the configuration menu.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The wear levelling component does not cache data in RAM. Write and erase functions
|
||||
modify flash directly, and flash contents is consistent when the function returns.

|
||||
:component_file:`fatfs/src/esp_vfs_fat.h` header file defines functions to connect FatFs with VFS. :cpp:func:`esp_vfs_fat_register` function allocates a ``FATFS`` structure, and registers a given path prefix in VFS. Subsequent operations on files starting with this prefix are forwarded to FatFs APIs. :cpp:func:`esp_vfs_fat_unregister_path` function deletes the registration with VFS, and frees the ``FATFS`` structure.

The SD/SDIO/MMC driver currently supports SD memory, SDIO cards, and eMMC chips. This is a protocol level driver built on top of SDMMC and SD SPI host drivers.
|
||||
|

SDMMC and SD SPI host drivers (``driver/sdmmc_host.h``) provide APIs to send commands to the slave device(s), send and receive data, and handle error conditions on the bus.
|

Protocol layer APIs
|

-------------------
|
||||
|

Protocol layer is given :cpp:class:`sdmmc_host_t` structure which describes the SD/MMC host driver, lists its capabilites, and provides pointers to functions of the driver. Protocol layer stores card-specific information in :cpp:class:`sdmmc_card_t` structure. When sending commands to the SD/MMC host driver, protocol layer uses :cpp:class:`sdmmc_command_t` structure to describe the command, argument, expected return value, and data to transfer, if any.
|
||||
Protocol layer API
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Usage with SD memory cards
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
1. Call the host driver functions to initialize the host (e.g. :cpp:func:`sdmmc_host_init`, :cpp:func:`sdmmc_host_init_slot`).
|
||||
2. Call :cpp:func:`sdmmc_card_init` to initialize the card, passing it host driver information (``host``) and a pointer to :cpp:class:`sdmmc_card_t` structure which will be filled in (``card``).
|
||||
3. To read and write sectors of the card, use :cpp:func:`sdmmc_read_sectors` and :cpp:func:`sdmmc_write_sectors`, passing the pointer to card information structure (``card``).
|
||||
4. When card is not used anymore, call the host driver function to disable the host peripheral and free resources allocated by the driver (e.g. :cpp:func:`sdmmc_host_deinit`).
|
||||
|
||||
Usage with eMMC chips
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
From the perspective of the protocol layer, eMMC memory chips behave the same way as SD memory cards. Because of similarity of the protocol, even though eMMC are chips don't have the "card" form factor, same terminology is used as for SD cards (`sdmmc_card_t`, `sdmmc_card_init`). Note that eMMC chips can not be used over SPI, therefore are incompatible with SD SPI host driver.

||||

To initialize eMMC memory and do read/write operations, follow the steps listed above for SD cards.
|
||||
The protocol layer is given the :cpp:class:`sdmmc_host_t` structure. This structure describes the SD/MMC host driver, lists its capabilities, and provides pointers to functions of the driver. The protocol layer stores card-specific information in the :cpp:class:`sdmmc_card_t` structure. When sending commands to the SD/MMC host driver, the protocol layer uses the :cpp:class:`sdmmc_command_t` structure to describe the command, arguments, expected return values, and data to transfer if there is any.

Usage with SDIO cards
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
Using API with SD memory cards
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
Initialization an probing process is the same as with SD memory cards. Only data transfer commands differ in SDIO mode.
|
||||
1. To initialize the host, call the host driver functions, e.g., :cpp:func:`sdmmc_host_init`, :cpp:func:`sdmmc_host_init_slot`.
|
||||
2. To initialize the card, call :cpp:func:`sdmmc_card_init` and pass to it the parameters ``host`` - the host driver information, and ``card`` - a pointer to the structure :cpp:class:`sdmmc_card_t` which will be filled with information about the card when the function completes.
|
||||
3. To read and write sectors of the card, use :cpp:func:`sdmmc_read_sectors` and :cpp:func:`sdmmc_write_sectors` respectively and pass to it the parameter ``card`` - a pointer to the card information structure.
|
||||
4. If the card is not used anymore, call the host driver function - e.g., :cpp:func:`sdmmc_host_deinit` - to disable the host peripheral and free the resources allocated by the driver.
|
||||
|
||||
During probing and card initialization (done by :cpp:func:`sdmmc_card_init`), the driver only configures the following registers of the IO card:
|
||||
|
||||
1. The IO portion of the card is reset by setting RES bit in "I/O Abort" (0x06) register.
|
||||
2. If 4-line mode is enalbed in host and slot configuration, driver attempts to set "Bus width" field in "Bus Interface Control" (0x07) register. If that succeeds (which means that slave supports 4-line mode), host is also switched to 4-line mode.
|
||||
3. If high-speed mode is enabled in host configuration, SHS bit is set in "High Speed" (0x13) register.
|
||||
Using API with eMMC chips
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
In particular, the driver does not set any of the bits in I/O Enable, Int Enable registers, IO block sizes, etc. Applications can set these by calling :cpp:func:`sdmmc_io_write_byte`.
|
||||
From the protocol layer's perspective, eMMC memory chips behave exactly like SD memory cards. Even though eMMCs are chips and do not have a card form factor, the terminology for SD cards can still be applied to eMMC due to the similarity of the protocol (`sdmmc_card_t`, `sdmmc_card_init`). Note that eMMC chips cannot be used over SPI, which makes them incompatible with the SD SPI host driver.
|
||||
|
||||
For card configuration and data transfer, use one of the following functions:
|
||||
To initialize eMMC memory and perform read/write operations, follow the steps listed for SD cards in the previous section.
|
||||
|
||||
- :cpp:func:`sdmmc_io_read_byte`, :cpp:func:`sdmmc_io_write_byte` — read and write single byte using IO_RW_DIRECT (CMD52).
|
||||
- :cpp:func:`sdmmc_io_read_bytes`, :cpp:func:`sdmmc_io_write_bytes` — read and write multiple bytes using IO_RW_EXTENDED (CMD53), in byte mode.
|
||||
- :cpp:func:`sdmmc_io_read_blocks`, :cpp:func:`sdmmc_io_write_blocks` — read and write blocks of data using IO_RW_EXTENDED (CMD53), in block mode.
|
||||
|
||||
SDIO interrupts can be enabled by the application using :cpp:func:`sdmmc_io_enable_int` function. When using SDIO in 1-line mode, D1 line also needs to be connected to use SDIO interrupts.
|
||||
Using API with SDIO cards
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
Initialization and the probing process is the same as with SD memory cards. The only difference is in data transfer commands in SDIO mode.
|
||||
|
||||
During the card initialization and probing, performed with :cpp:func:`sdmmc_card_init`, the driver only configures the following registers of the IO card:
|
||||
|
||||
1. The IO portion of the card is reset by setting RES bit in the I/O Abort (0x06) register.
|
||||
2. If 4-line mode is enabled in host and slot configuration, the driver attempts to set the Bus width field in the Bus Interface Control (0x07) register. If setting the filed is successful, which means that the slave supports 4-line mode, the host is also switched to 4-line mode.
|
||||
3. If high-speed mode is enabled in the host configuration, the SHS bit is set in the High Speed (0x13) register.
|
||||
|
||||
In particular, the driver does not set any bits in (1) I/O Enable and Int Enable registers, (2) I/O block sizes, etc. Applications can set them by calling :cpp:func:`sdmmc_io_write_byte`.
|
||||
|
||||
For card configuration and data transfer, choose the pair of functions relevant to your case from the table below.

||||

SDIO interrupts can be enabled by the application using the function :cpp:func:`sdmmc_io_enable_int`. When using SDIO in 1-line mode, the D1 line also needs to be connected to use SDIO interrupts.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want the application to wait until the SDIO interrupt occurs, use :cpp:func:`sdmmc_io_wait_int`.

Most applications need to use the protocol layer only in one task; therefore the protocol layer doesn't implement any kind of locking on the :cpp:class:`sdmmc_card_t` structure, or when accessing SDMMC or SD SPI host drivers. Such locking is usually implemented in the higher layer (e.g. in the filesystem driver).

Implementation details
|
||||
----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
In order to perform some flash operations, we need to make sure both CPUs
|
||||
are not running any code from flash for the duration of the flash operation.
|
||||
In a single-core setup this is easy: we disable interrupts/scheduler and do
|
||||
the flash operation. In the dual-core setup this is slightly more complicated.

We need to make sure that the other CPU doesn't run any code from flash.
|
||||
In order to perform some flash operations, it is necessary to make sure that both CPUs are not running any code from flash for the duration of the flash operation:
|
||||
- In a single-core setup, the SDK does it by disabling interrupts/scheduler before performing the flash operation.
|
||||
- In a dual-core setup, this is slightly more complicated as the SDK needs to make sure that the other CPU is not running any code from flash.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
When SPI flash API is called on CPU A (can be PRO or APP), we start
|
||||
spi_flash_op_block_func function on CPU B using esp_ipc_call API. This API
|
||||
wakes up high priority task on CPU B and tells it to execute given function,
|
||||
in this case spi_flash_op_block_func. This function disables cache on CPU B and
|
||||
signals that cache is disabled by setting s_flash_op_can_start flag.
|
||||
Then the task on CPU A disables cache as well, and proceeds to execute flash
|
||||
operation.

Then the task on CPU A disables cache as well and proceeds to execute flash operation.
|
||||
|

While flash operation is running, interrupts can still run on CPUs A and B.
|
||||
We assume that all interrupt code is placed into RAM. Once interrupt allocation
|
||||
API is added, we should add a flag to request interrupt to be disabled for
|
||||
the duration of flash operations.

|
||||
|
||||
Once flash operation is complete, function on CPU A sets another flag,
|
||||
s_flash_op_complete, to let the task on CPU B know that it can re-enable
|
||||
cache and release the CPU. Then the function on CPU A re-enables the cache on

CPU A as well and returns control to the calling code.

Additionally, all API functions are protected with a mutex (s_flash_op_mutex).

||||
In a single core environment (:ref:`CONFIG_FREERTOS_UNICORE` enabled), we simply
|

disable both caches, no inter-CPU communication takes place.

- Currently, SPIFFS does not support directories. It produces a flat structure. If SPIFFS is mounted under ``/spiffs``, then creating a file with path ``/spiffs/tmp/myfile.txt`` will create a file called ``/tmp/myfile.txt`` in SPIFFS, instead of ``myfile.txt`` under directory ``/spiffs/tmp``.

Notes on which SPIFFS tool to use
|

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
The two tools presented above offer very similar functionality. There are, however, reasons to prefer one
|
||||
over the other depending on the use case.
|
||||
The two tools presented above offer very similar functionality. However, there are reasons to prefer one over the other, depending on the use case.
|
||||
|
||||
If the intent is to simply generate a SPIFFS image during build, ``spiffsgen.py`` makes it very convenient
|
||||
by providing functions/commands from the build system itself. This makes it easy to generate SPIFFS images
|
||||
that match the build configuration and can be flashed together with the application.
|
||||
Another case for choosing ``spiffsgen.py`` is when the host has no C/C++ compiler available, since ``mkspiffs``
|
||||
requires compilation.
|
||||
Use ``spiffsgen.py`` in the following cases:
|
||||
1. If you want to simply generate a SPIFFS image during the build. ``spiffsgen.py`` makes it very convenient by providing functions/commands from the build system itself.
|
||||
2. If the host has no C/C++ compiler available, because ``spiffsgen.py`` does not require compilation.
|
||||
|
||||
On the other hand, ``mkspiffs`` offers unpacking SPIFFS images in addition to image generation. This is not
|
||||
possible with ``spiffsgen.py``, at least not yet. There might also be environments where a Python interpreter
|
||||
is not available, but a host compiler is or a pre-compiled ``mkspiffs`` binary
|
||||
can do the job. However, there is no build system integration for ``mkspiffs`` and the user has to
|
||||
do the corresponding work: compiling ``mkspiffs`` during build (if a pre-compiled binary is not used), creating build rules/targets
|
||||
for the output files, passing proper parameters to the tool, etc.

This utility is designed to create instances of factory NVS partition images on a per-device basis for mass manufacturing purposes. The NVS partition images are created from CSV files containing user-provided configurations and values.
|
||||
|
||||
Please note that this utility only creates manufacturing binary images which then need to be flashed onto your devices using:
|
||||
|
||||
- esptool.py
|
||||
- Flash Download tool (available on Windows only)
|
||||
- Direct flash programming
