Under GNU C, sizeof(void) = 1. This commit merely makes it explicit u8.
Pointer arithmetics over void types is:
* A GNU C extension
* Not supported by Clang
* Illegal across all ISO C standards

In case a write to the flash failed, do not leave the flash unprotected.

Avoid unsetting and setting the flash protection if there is nothing to

In case a sector is not empty nor properly closed (ie it never contains
8 times 0xff nor 0x00), the _nvs_prev_ate will loop indefinitely and
will start adressing memory outside of the flash area.
Fix that by stopping the loop when the address matches the beginning of
the sector.

Instead of forcing the crc8 entry to 0xff for the crc8 computation, just
ignore this field in the computation as it is the last one. This avoid
having to set it back to the original value for _nvs_ate_crc8_check.
Add a build assertion to ensure crc8 is kept last.

The current code computes the block-aligned len by ANDing the len with
~write_block_size instead of ~(write_block_size - 1).
In addition the compute value can be 0 (for lengths that are less than
the block size), so the first flash write might have to be skipped.

On flash NVS was stored one entry after another including the metadata
of each entry. This has the disadvantage that when an incomplete write
is performed (e.g. due to power failure) the complete sector had to be
rewritten to get a completely functional system.
The present rewrite changed the storage in flash of the data. For each
sector the data is now written as follows: the data itself at the
beginning of the sector (one after the other), the metadata (id, length,
data offset in the sector, and a crc of the metadata) is written from
the end of the sector. The metadata is of fixed size (8 byte) and for
a sector that is completely occupied a metadata entry of all zeros is
used.
Writing data to flash always is done by:
1. Writing the data,
2. Writing the metadata.
If an incomplete write is done NVS will ignore this incomplete write.
At the same time the following improvements were done:
1. NVS now support 65536 sectors of each 65536 byte.
2. The sector size no longer requires to be a power of 2 (but it
still needs to be a multiple of the flash erase page size).
3. NVS now also keeps track of the free space available.

The nvs module has some disadvantages for larger block size. The data
header and slot are taking up to much space. A rewrite is proposed that
reduces the used storage space for systems with write block size > 4.
The data storage in flash is now one unit consisting of: data_length,
data_id, data and data_length again in a multiple of the write block
size. The data_length at the end is used to validate the correctness of
the flash write and also allows to travel backwards in the filesystem.
As a comparison, on a system with block size 8 byte, a 32 bit values
now fits 1 block including the metadata (length and id). This used to
be 3 blocks.
The data_length will occupy 1 byte if the data length is less than 128
byte, it will occupy 2 byte if the data length is 128 byte or more. The
data length is limited to 16383 byte.
Each write to flash is verified by a read back of the data.
The read performance is improved because reading is done backwards so
the latest items are found first.
When the filesystem is locked it can be unlocked by calling
reinit(), this will clear flash and setup everything for storage.

This patch removes the need for application build script code to
explicitly link 'app' with a filesystem implementation.
It does this by introducing a zephyr interface library called 'FS'
that contains the usage requirements for linking with the filesystem
library subsys__fs and using Kconfig to default to linking the 'app'
library with this interface library.
Signed-off-by: Sebastian Bøe <sebastian.boe@nordicsemi.no>
Bool symbols implicitly default to 'n'.
A 'default n' can make sense e.g. in a Kconfig.defconfig file, if you
want to override a 'default y' on the base definition of the symbol. It
isn't used like that on any of these symbols though.
Remove some 'default ""' properties on string symbols too.
Also make definitions more consistent by converting some
config FOO
<type>
prompt "foo"
definitions to a shorter form:
config FOO
<type> "foo"
This shorthand works for int/hex/string symbols too, not just for bool
symbols.

The two functions that compute the crc16 when writing (nvs_append_close)
and when reading (nvs_check_crc) currently assume that the flash is
also mapped in read mode at address 0. This is not true on all SoCs, and
even less on an SPI flash.
Fix this by adding a new nvs_compute_crc() function which compute the
CRC16 of an entry using the flash using nvs_flash_read, in blocks of
write_block_size. This might not be the optimal size, but it keeps the
stack usage small.
Use this function in both nvs_append_close() and nvs_check_crc() instead
of accessing the flash from address 0.

Reading more than the destination buffer means that data is overwritten

Some SoCs do not allow shorter writes than the write block size, usually
when they have ECC memory. This patch first write all data in multiple
of the write block size and then do a last write with the data padded.
It uses 0xff as the padding byte to avoid wearing-out the flash.
nvs_append_close() is slightly modified to compute the crc16 that will
be put in the slot over the size defined in the header, to match the way
it is checked on read.

Zephyr supports fatfs, nffs and fcb as storage layer. fatfs and nffs
are less suited for application in memory restricted IC's. fcb has a
smaller footprint but has a complex api.
The proposed module is a module with a even smaller footprint compared
to fcb and a simple interface for reading and writing entries. The
module provides wear levelling of flash. This allows the module to be
used not only to store configuration settings but to store device state
(e.g. state of a light switch over reboots) of a zephyr device.
Fixes buffer overflow by introducing maximum read length in nvs_read()
and nvs_read_hist().
Fixes nvs_write() not to reflash the same data. Allows the user to do
call nvs_write() for all defined entries without worries about flash
wear.
Fixes garbage collection error where wrong data could be copied.
Add nvs_delete() to allow deleting a stored entry. A deleted entry will
not be copied to a new flash sector
Include flash wear information in the README.md documentation

Previously flash_area structure was the parameter for the callback
function for transferring sector location info.
Now flash_sector is used so relevant flash_area is missing for

Prior to this commit: `struct fcb` contained a pointer to an array of
`struct flash_area`. Each entry in the array represented a flash sector
that the fcb comprised.
After commit: `struct fcb` contains a pointer to an array of `struct
flash_sector`, not `struct flash_area`.
Rationale: The FCB needs to know which sectors it occupies for its
rotate operation. However, the `flash_area` type is meant to represent
a collection of sectors, not a single sector. `struct flash_area`
contains information that the fcb does not need (e.g., area ID and
device ID). Furthermore, the flash_map API provides a means of
converting a flash area ID to an array of sectors
(`flash_area_get_sectors()`), but no way to convert to an array of
areas.

Introducing CMake is an important step in a larger effort to make
Zephyr easy to use for application developers working on different
platforms with different development environment needs.
Simplified, this change retains Kconfig as-is, and replaces all
Makefiles with CMakeLists.txt. The DSL-like Make language that KBuild
offers is replaced by a set of CMake extentions. These extentions have
either provided simple one-to-one translations of KBuild features or
introduced new concepts that replace KBuild concepts.
This is a breaking change for existing test infrastructure and build
scripts that are maintained out-of-tree. But for FW itself, no porting
should be necessary.
For users that just want to continue their work with minimal
disruption the following should suffice:
Install CMake 3.8.2+
Port any out-of-tree Makefiles to CMake.
Learn the absolute minimum about the new command line interface:
$ cd samples/hello_world
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake -DBOARD=nrf52_pca10040 ..
$ cd build
$ make
