This structure describes an individual flash region. An array of these structures make up the flash region table located in the flash layout sector.

Syntax

typedef struct _FlashRegion {
  REGION_TYPE regionType;
  DWORD dwStartPhysBlock;
  DWORD dwNumPhysBlocks;
  DWORD dwNumLogicalBlocks;
  DWORD dwSectorsPerBlock;
  DWORD dwBytesPerBlock;
  DWORD dwCompactBlocks;
} FlashRegion, *PFlashRegion;

Members

  • regionType
    Type of region, which must be one of the following: XIP, READONLY_FILESYS, or FILESYS.
  • dwStartPhysBlock
    Starting physical block of the region. Set to zero (0) if not used.
  • dwNumPhysBlocks
    Number of physical blocks in the region. Set to zero (0) if not used.
  • dwNumLogicalBlocks
    Number of logical blocks in the region. Set to zero (0) if not used. Set to -1 to indicate that the region extends to the end of flash memory.
  • dwSectorsPerBlock
    Number of sectors in a flash block.
  • dwBytesPerBlock
    Number of bytes in a flash block.
  • dwCompactBlocks
    Number of blocks reserved for compaction by the FAL.
