Embodiment
Relevant preferred embodiment of the present invention is to illustrate with the non-volatility memorizer access system in the portable electronic devices, and in present embodiment, portable electronic devices is preferably PDA(Personal Digital Assistant) or Espresso (Pocket PC).
Fig. 1 shows system architecture synoptic diagram of the present invention, it mainly comprises CPU (central processing unit) (CPU) 1, storage unit 2 and non-volatile memory 3, wherein, CPU (central processing unit) 1 has at least one buffer 11, it is to be used for temporary a plurality of interrupt requests (for example: can keep in 32 interrupt requests) and interrupt request control flag 111, non-volatile memory 3 is divided into first area 31 and second area 32 at least, first area 31 is in order to the executive routine code of the operating system of storage portable electronic devices, second area 32 makes to store general data file in order to as Storage Media.Certainly, non-volatile memory 3 more can comprise the 3rd zone, to be used for stocking system boot program or test procedure.
In present embodiment, to have reading and write fashionable be base conditioning unit with the byte for a kind of for non-volatile memory 3, and when erasing (Erase), be the characteristic of base conditioning unit with the block, non-volatile memory 3 is preferably or/no type (NOR Type) flash memory, and storage unit 2 is preferably random-access memory (ram).Above-mentioned CPU (central processing unit) 1 is to deposit data in the second area 32 of non-volatile memory 3, the following action flow chart that the data of CPU (central processing unit) 1 access second area 32 will be described by storage unit 2.
Process flow diagram and the synoptic diagram that shows with reference to Fig. 1, Fig. 2 a and Fig. 3 in the lump please.At first, before the second area 32 of non-volatile memory 3 is as Storage Media (when for example PDA starts shooting for the first time), must format processing (step S201) to second area 32 earlier, make for forming a plurality of storage blocks at second area 32, wherein, each stores block and all has a plurality of page numbers (Page), and this second area 32 is planned a plurality of access blocks 321 and a plurality of redundant block (Buffer Blocks) 323 again, these access blocks 321 are two-to-one with the number of blocks of these redundant blocks 323 than preferably, in present embodiment, the number of these page numbers is preferably four and (is numbered 3211 as shown in Figure 3,3212,3213,3214), certainly each page number is made up of a plurality of bytes 331, make when supplying CPU (central processing unit) 1 to read or write the data of second area 32, and be as basic access unit with page number.
Finish after the format, CPU (central processing unit) 1 just can be carried out data access to second area 32.Why CPU (central processing unit) 1 can judge the present action of carrying out earlier before access second area 32, if read action, then CPU (central processing unit) 1 is set at the high levels state with the interrupt request control flag 111 of its buffer 11, require action with opens interrupters, that is other device can send interrupt request (step S202) to CPU (central processing unit) 1, then, CPU (central processing unit) 1 begins that these access blocks 321 in the second area 32 or redundant block 323 are carried out data and reads (step S203).
If write activity, wherein at least one section of CPU (central processing unit) 1 a plurality of access sections (Sections) 21 that the temporary transient write storage unit 2 of data to be written is comprised then is to write second area 32 (step 204) with data to be written.In present embodiment, the mode that writes data is to write data in order in second area 32, that is the initial page number that at every turn writes data is the page number after last time writing data and finishing of continuing, for example: last time write the page number 3211 and 3212 of data to access section 321, when then write data next time, just the page number 3213 by access block 321 began to write data.In addition, when last page number (page number in the redundant block 323) of second area 32 when data write and finish, then continue to write data by first page number (page number 3211 of access block 321) of second area 32 again.The mode that interrelated data writes will be in following explanation.
Before writing data, CPU (central processing unit) 1 can judge whether earlier to foundation writes new data, then is the action of modification data if not, and the back explanation is held in relevant its action.Write new data if set up, judge again then whether the target page number of desiring to write has data to exist, if the existing data of this page number represents that then data quantity has surpassed the memory span of second area 32, stops write activity and warns user's (step 209).
If this page number and no data exist, then CPU (central processing unit) 1 is set at low-end trim with the interrupt request control flag 111 of its buffer 11, with closeall interrupt request action, that is CPU (central processing unit) 1 is not is not accepted the interrupt request (step S205) of other device at this moment, and begin the data in the storage unit 2 is write second area 32.
Because it is slow to write the speed of non-volatile memory 3, and the interrupt request of temporary close CPU (central processing unit) again 1, therefore will make the total system resource reduce if once all data are write non-volatile memory 3, so it is based at least one section 21 in the storage unit in non-volatility memorizer 3 that CPU (central processing unit) 1 writes data at every turn, write the target page number of data in second area 32 in batches, wherein, the size of each section 21 of storage unit 2 equals each the page number size in these blocks.
If this time writes the data action and writes data for the first time for these second area 32 format backs, then yes is write in regular turn by first page number 3211 beginnings, CPU (central processing unit) 1 and write finish after, this page number is given annotation for " in the use (using) " (step S206).
Then, CPU (central processing unit) 1 is judged whether data to be written has write and is finished, if data to be written has write and finished, then finishes this write activity.If still have many documents not write as yet, then CPU (central processing unit) 1 is opened interrupt request (interrupt request is controlled flag 111 be set at high-end trim) (step S207), to receive the interrupt request of other device, if other device there is no the request interrupt request, then CPU (central processing unit) 1 continues to write next record data (step S208), and continue repeated execution of steps S205, step S206, step S207 and step S208, write up to data and finish.
Sometimes the user can be after reading data, revise the data that it reads, the situation of data modification then takes place this moment, relevant CPU (central processing unit) 1 is revised the detailed description of data, would like to ask in the lump with reference to Fig. 1, process flow diagram and synoptic diagram that Fig. 2 b and Fig. 3 show, CPU (central processing unit) 1 with data write storage unit 2 to be written after, be to judge earlier whether target page number to be written has data to exist, wherein, target page number to be written at this indication is to continue last time to write the page number of data action, produce with the situation of avoiding the data mistake, that is, the data that desire is revised its address originally of not writing direct, but data that will be to be revised writes according to the above-mentioned data mode that writes.
If the existing data of target page number to be written exists, then stop write activity and warn user's storage space deficiency (step S214).If target page number no data to be written exists, then CPU (central processing unit) 1 is closed its interrupt request (step S210), to begin the data that writes in the target page number, CPU (central processing unit) 1 in the data that writes when this target page number is finished, and be " in the use ", and the page number annotation that the script legacy data is deposited is " not using (nouse) " (step S211) to this target page number annotation.
Afterwards, whether the data that CPU (central processing unit) 1 judgement is revised all writes is finished, and finishes if all write, and then finishes this modification data action.If still have other modification data not write second area 32 as yet, then CPU (central processing unit) 1 is opened interrupt request, to serve the device that other sends interrupt request, then begin to write the next record data in next target page number (step S213), and continue repeated execution of steps S210, step S211, step S212 and step S213, write up to the modification data and finish.
Begin to write the redundant block 323 of second area when data to be written, that is last page number of access block 321 is written into data, and write activity is must enter redundant block 323 time, to trigger a block and reclaim action (promptly beginning the action of erasing), the space of second area 32 makes for reclaiming and stores block, so that can effectively utilize.
The mechanism that recycles of relevant storage block, would like to ask in the lump the synoptic diagram and the process flow diagram that show with reference to Fig. 1, Fig. 3 and Fig. 4, because non-volatile memory 3 is or/no type flash memories, action the time is to be unit with a block so it is erased, yet, in these access blocks 321 or these redundant blocks 323, its part page number might annotation be " in the use ", other page number may annotation be " not using " then, therefore if rashly annotation is erased for the page number of " in the use ", then will produce the situation of data mistake.So,, then must carry out the following step that recycles the access space method as if reclaiming these access blocks 321 and these redundant blocks 323 effectively and not taking place under the situation of data mistake.
Carry out block erase the action before, be that first that read this second area 32 earlier stores the page number state in block, that is read each page number 3211 in first access block 321,3212,3213,3214 annotation is if the page number 3211 that reads is that annotation is " in the use ", then with the data in this page number 3211 elder generations write storage unit 2, being that the data-moving of page number of " in the use " is to the page number (step S401) of other no datat by storage unit 2 with annotation.
Then, this document (continued) in order write in the page number that continued after last time, write activity was finished, its writing mode and above-mentioned modification data mode are similar, are repeated execution of steps S402, step S403, step S404 and step S405 or step S406.When if the data in the temporary transient write storage unit 2 all write to other page number, that is each page number in this access block 321 all annotation be " not using ", then begin the action of erasing of this access block 321, and its each page number annotation is " empty (free) " (step 407) after finishing erasing.
Then, carry out next access block 322 recyclings, to the last a storage block (last redundant block 323) all is recovered processing (step 408).Therefore, all data that are written into second area 32 will closely be come together again, and reclaim these unnecessary spaces (being that annotation is these page numbers of " not using ") effectively.
Because the data in erasing nonvolatile memory storage 3 blocks needs the long time, therefore, CPU (central processing unit) 1 time is to be undertaken by the background erase mode carrying out the block action of erasing, that is CPU (central processing unit) 1 is when handling other computing or handle other action (comprise the non-volatility memorizer second area is carried out data reading-writing), simultaneously this block is erased, with the usefulness that improves native system and can reclaim these effectively and store block.
The annotation of above-mentioned page number can be set up an annotation table 4 in storage unit 2, it is to comprise a plurality of fields 41, be used for annotation do not use, use in or empty, certainly, also direct annotation in non-volatility memorizer.And whether page number in have data exist, can judge with the annotation content if judging.
The foregoing description only is to give an example for convenience of description, and the interest field that the present invention advocated should be as the criterion so that claim is described certainly, but not only limits to the foregoing description.
