judging whether the operation request has the operation authority on the target address or not according to the operation authority of each address in the prestored Flash;
and if the judgment result shows that the target address has the operation authority, the erasing operation of the Flash is allowed to be started.
In the exemplary embodiment, the inventor finds that Flash is used as a storage medium, and an internal partial storage area is configured to store specific data in advance, and once the specific data is rewritten, the normal operation of the relevant chip is affected.
After receiving an operation request for writing Flash, the operation supported by the target address in Flash, namely the operation authority, is obtained by calling the target address of the operation required by the operation request, and the operation request is responded according to the permission of the operation request, so that the occurrence of Flash misoperation is effectively reduced.

judging whether the target address to be operated is in a storage area of a Chip Operating System (COS) of a System On Chip (SOC);
and if the target address to be operated is in the storage area, determining that the operation request has no operation authority on the target address.
In the exemplary embodiment, the COS data in the Flash-based SOC system is read from the outside and then stored in the Flash, and after the COS data is downloaded, the COS data is stored in a preset storage area, and by setting corresponding authority control, it can be ensured that the erasing operation hitting the COS area is ignored and an alarm is generated, thereby preventing the COS data from being erased by mistake.
In an exemplary embodiment, after determining whether to allow the Flash operation to be started according to the Flash erasing operation request information, the method further includes:
when a target address to be operated is sent to Flash, judging whether an address latch signal corresponding to the target address is effective or not;
and if the address latch signal is effective, controlling to execute the erasing operation of the Flash.

By judging the validity of the address latching signal, whether the address can be erased or not can be judged, so that whether the address can execute Flash erasing operation or not can be obtained, the purpose of judging whether the erasing operation can be executed or not is achieved, the occurrence of mistaken erasing is reduced, and the safety of data storage in Flash is improved.
In one exemplary embodiment, the method further comprises:
and judging whether the first lock register and the newly added second lock register in the Flash are both in an unlocking state, and allowing the corresponding operation to be executed when the judgment result is that the first lock register and the newly added second lock register are both in the unlocking state.
In the present exemplary embodiment, in the course of performing at least one operation, the steps of the above exemplary embodiment are performed, including:
A. detecting whether management information for performing erasing operation on Flash is received or not, wherein the management information comprises a target address to be operated;
B. judging whether the operation request has the operation authority on the target address or not according to the operation authority of each address in the prestored Flash;
C. when a target address to be operated is sent to Flash, whether an address latch signal corresponding to the target address is effective or not is judged.
The above-mentioned A is implemented by software, B and C operations are implemented by hardware, and the judgment precision can be improved and the occurrence of Flash error rewriting can be reduced by combining the judgment of the hardware mode of locking the register.
In an exemplary embodiment, the address to be operated in the Flash erasing operation is an invalid address or the last page by default, so that the address of the page 0 (usually, the page 0 contains valid information) is prevented from being wrongly rewritten.
In one exemplary embodiment, the method further comprises:
before the system of software stored in the Flash is reset by the Flash, judging whether COS data stored in the Flash accords with a preset correctness judgment strategy or not;
and if the COS data conforms to the correctness judgment strategy, allowing the system resetting operation of releasing the software to be executed.
In an exemplary embodiment, after the SOC chip is powered on, the SOC chip, except for loading necessary hardware initialization information, performs a check on COS data in Flash before the system reset for releasing software, so as to ensure the correctness of COS, ensure the normal operation of the SOC chip, and improve the security of data.
In an exemplary embodiment, the determining whether the COS data stored in Flash conforms to a preset correctness determination policy includes:
dividing the content of COS data according to pages by taking a preset data size as a detection unit to obtain n detection data blocks, wherein n is a positive integer;
selecting one or at least two bytes from each detection data block as target detection content;
and judging whether the target detection content meets a preset correctness judgment strategy.
In the present exemplary embodiment, the inventors found that, since the COS data is different in size, the time overhead required to perform the inspection operation is also different, and it takes a long time to perform the data inspection for data of how large the storage amount of the COS data is. Therefore, one or a few bytes in the COS are checked page by page to execute data check operation, such as CRC calculation, and the like, the check result is compared with a pre-stored reference result, if the check result is correct, the COS is safe, and otherwise, an alarm reset system is generated.
In one exemplary embodiment, the method further comprises:
and outputting an alarm prompt when the Flash is detected to have a safety risk.
In the exemplary embodiment, when the detection and/or determination steps are executed and the obtained result is that the preset condition is not met, the security risk of the Flash storage is determined, and an alarm prompt is sent out in time.
