31 /**
32 * @brief Provides the implementation-independent structure that defines
33 * all of the callbacks required by OpenOCD flash drivers.
35 * Driver authors must implement the routines defined here, providing an
36 * instance with the fields filled out. After that, the instance must
37 * be registered in flash.c, so it can be used by the driver lookup system.
39 * Specifically, the user can issue the command: @par
40 * @code
41 * flash bank DRIVERNAME ...parameters...
42 * @endcode
44 * OpenOCD will search for the driver with a @c flash_driver_s::name
45 * that matches @c DRIVERNAME.
47 * The flash subsystem calls some of the other drivers routines a using
48 * corresponding static <code>flash_driver_<i>callback</i>()</code>
49 * routine in flash.c.
51 struct flash_driver
53 /**
54 * Gives a human-readable name of this flash driver,
55 * This field is used to select and initialize the driver.
57 char *name;

60 * An array of driver-specific commands to register. When called
61 * during the "flash bank" command, the driver can register addition
62 * commands to support new flash chip functions.
64 const struct command_registration *commands;
66 /**
67 * Finish the "flash bank" command for @a bank. The
68 * @a bank parameter will have been filled in by the core flash
69 * layer when this routine is called, and the driver can store
70 * additional information in its struct flash_bank::driver_priv field.
72 * The CMD_ARGV are: @par
73 * @code
74 * CMD_ARGV[0] = bank
75 * CMD_ARGV[1] = drivername {name above}
76 * CMD_ARGV[2] = baseaddress
77 * CMD_ARGV[3] = lengthbytes
78 * CMD_ARGV[4] = chip_width_in bytes
79 * CMD_ARGV[5] = bus_width_in_bytes
80 * CMD_ARGV[6] = driver-specific parameters
81 * @endcode
83 * For example, CMD_ARGV[4] = 2 (for 16 bit flash),
84 * CMD_ARGV[5] = 4 (for 32 bit bus).
86 * If extra arguments are provided (@a CMD_ARGC > 6), they will
87 * start in @a CMD_ARGV[6]. These can be used to implement
88 * driver-specific extensions.
90 * @returns ERROR_OK if successful; otherwise, an error code.
