int16_t flread ( uint16_t  fromaddr,
void *  tobuf,
uint16_t  size 
)

A system call to provide random read access of the on-chip flash as a non-volatile storage.

Precondition:
Do not call this inside the interrupt handler context. Caller must maintain its own flash address management to avoid reading unwanted data. 0 is the start address of the flash abstraction.
Postcondition:
If successful, size number of bytes of fromaddr on the flash is written to tobuf.
Parameters:
[in] fromaddr address of the flash where data is read from
[out] tobuf address of a the buffer where content will be copied to
[in] size size of tobuf in bytes
Returns:
0 if succeed or -1 if fail and errno is set appropriately.
Errors:
EINVAL if invalid parameters are passed
ESIZE if size is too large

uint16_t flsize (  ) 

A function call that returns the total size of the internal non-volatile storage in bytes that are available for application to use.

Precondition:
None.
Postcondition:
returns the total size of the internal non-voltagile storage in bytes that are available to applications.
Returns:
size of the internal non-voltagile storage in bytes

int16_t flwrite ( const void *  frombuf,
uint16_t  size,
uint16_t  toaddr 
)

A system call to provide random write access to the on-chip flash as a non-volatile storage.

Precondition:
Do not call this inside the interrupt handler context. Caller must maintain its own flash address management to avoid overwriting previous data. 0 is the start address of the flash abstraction.
Postcondition:
If successful, size number of bytes of frombuf is written into the flash starting at toaddr.
Parameters:
[in] frombuf pointer to the buffer to be written to flash
[in] size size of the buffer in bytes
[in] toaddr start address on the flash where content will be copied to
Returns:
0 if succeed or -1 if fail and errno is set appropriately.
Errors:
EINVAL if invalid parameters are passed
ESIZE if size is too large
