Abstract

The FLASH memory is divided into the file data storage area and the file index area. The file data storage area composed of the 'block' of FLASH memory is utilized to store the content of the file. The file index area is utilized to record the file directories and the allocation information of 'block' of FLASH memory. Based on the said partition, the operations of writing file, reading file and erasing file are carried out, making the FLASH space be allocated based on the dynamic quantity and the length of the file utilized. Thus, it is not needed to modify the code or upgrade the software when the quantity of the file is adjusted or the length of the file is changed. The invention uses the resources reasonably and saves the storage space.

For achieving the above object, the technical solution used in the present invention is: at first, the FLASH storage space is divided into file index district and two zones of file data storage region, the file index district is used for the assignment information of log file catalogue and basic allocation unit " piece ", and file data storage region is used for the particular content of storage file;
The operation that file writes may further comprise the steps:
A1, search for first sky piece as starting block;
A2, with in the file data write-in block;
Whether A3, inspection file have all been write, if finish write operation; If not, execution in step A4;
A4, the next empty piece of search, and in the assignment information of " piece " the link order of record " piece ", steps A 2 is changeed in the back;
The operation that file is read may further comprise the steps:
B1, from file directory, obtain starting block;
B2, read file data;
B3, from the assignment information of " piece ", find next piece;
If last piece of B4 no show file, repeated execution of steps B2 to B4;
The operation that file is wiped may further comprise the steps:
C1, from file directory, obtain starting block;
C2, wipe file data;
C3, from the assignment information of " piece ", find next piece;
If last piece of C4 no show file, repeated execution of steps C2 to C4.
Owing to adopt above technical scheme, make the FLASH space in use according to quantity of documents and length dynamic assignment, change static allocation in the prior art, fixed the deficiency of using and bringing, more reasonable to the utilization of resource; Need not to revise code, upgrade software when adjusting number of files or changing file size, flexible and convenient to use and saving storage space.

Embodiment
With reference to Fig. 1, FLASH storage file management method of the present invention at first is divided into FLASH two zones, one of them zone file data storage region that is used for the storage file particular content for being made up of basic allocation unit " piece "; Another zone is the file index district that is used for the assignment information of log file catalogue and basic allocation unit " piece ".Common FLASH chip physically is divided into tens of unit length and arrives hundreds of " piece ", is divided into 128 as every of INTEL 28F128 FLAH chip, and every 128K byte can be with these " pieces " as basic allocation unit when specifically dividing.According to such division, the file index district only accounts for 1 to 2 " piece " just can satisfy the storage needs, and all the other pieces are all to file data storage region.
With reference to Fig. 2, the file index district can be further divided into two sections of branches, i.e. file directory section 1 and " piece " table section 2.The catalogue of existing file among the file directory section 1 record FLASH, but every file catalogue include file name, starting block number, file size and file status information can also comprise other attributes such as FileVersion, author, time.The information that the assignment information of " piece " table section 2 records " piece " and each file are shared.
The FLASH storage space is carried out after the above-mentioned division, can writing, reading and erase operation by the inventive method execute file.
Figure 3 shows that file writes a kind of embodiment of FLASH, program checks for this document whether enough storage spaces are arranged earlier, if having, continues steps A 1; If do not have, finish after then returning the not enough information in space.Steps A 1 is that first sky piece of search is as starting block; Check subsequently whether file directory successfully writes file directory section 1, if then the seizure condition of current block is changed to and takies, and continue steps A 2; If not, finish after returning corresponding information; Steps A 2 is with in the file data write-in block, and after this, the program checkout file data writes whether success, if not, finishes after returning corresponding information; If execution in step A3 checks whether file has all been write, if finish write operation; If not, execution in step A4; Steps A 4 is searched for next empty piece, and writes down the link order of " piece " in the assignment information of " piece ", and steps A 2 is changeed in the back; The assignment information of " piece " shown in Fig. 2 comprises this piece piece number, seizure condition, next piece piece number, promptly this piece piece of occupied each piece number and next piece piece number is noted down by the link order of this embodiment steps A 4 described records " piece ".In embodiment shown in Figure 3, " piece " user mode information comprises seizure condition and the chain list index that is used in reference to next piece, and the link of steps A 4 described records " piece " is to write its chained list pointer position of last with occupied number in proper order.When finishing write operation, present embodiment in chained list, writes end-of-file marker, replacement file status.
