fstorage page info

[rdecker]

I am attempting to integrate examples/peripheral/flash_fstorage into my project (SDK 14.1.0).

When calling nrf_fstorage_write I get NRF_ERROR_INVALID_LENGTH in response. I assume because I am only trying to write 20 bytes not ~2K. However, for some reason the example can write m_hello_world which is only a handful of bytes. Additionally, a minimum erase size of 536MiB seems too large to be correct. Diffing the example sdk_config.h with the default didn't reveal anything interesting I could change.

nrf5_flash_end_addr_get returns 1048576 (dec?) AKA 0x10000.

print_flash_info displays the following:

erase unit: 536871936 bytes

program unit: 2277 bytes

Any help on why the minimums are so large would be appreciated. Thanks.

The program unit should be the word size, which is 4 bytes. The length has to be a multiple of 4 bytes, like the length of m_hello_world.

Edit 29.11.2017:

This is a bug. The fix is (as you figured out) to put p_fs->p_flash_info = &m_flash_info; before the if in the init function of nrf_fstorage_sd.c

This will be fixed in the next SDK release.

It should be possible to call nrf_fstorage_init() for every instance you want, but how exactly have you defined your instance? It sounds like you have some undefined values of nrf_fstorage_t?
