sd_flash_write writes corrupted data when BLE is enabled

[David]

Hi,

I wrote some code that writes to the flash perfectly when BLE is not enabled but when it is enabled, some of the data are correct while others are either missing or shifted to a later address. Below is a snippet of the code:

uint32_t retval;
while(NRF_ERROR_BUSY == (retval = sd_flash_write(p_dst, p_src, num_words)));
ASSERT(NRF_SUCCESS == retval);

I'm trying to avoid pstorage since I'm want to write to a contiguous block of flash much greater then the page size.

Thanks.

I think the write flash require you to write per page only. You cannot cross the page boundary. What you are experiencing look like cross boundary issue. Try pstorage_store, it handle cross boundary for you. I think, can't confirm at the moment. You can try and see.

I don't know much about the hardfault other than it seems to happen if I rapidly call sd_flash_write() and ble.updateCharacteristicValue() multiple times and it faults on the update function.
