Introduction

This page provides details related to the xilisf library.
  • Allows you to Write, Read, and Erase the Serial Flash.
  • Allows protection of the data stored in the Serial Flash from unwarranted modification by enabling the Sector Protection feature.
  • Supports multiple instances of Serial Flash at a time, provided they are of the same device family
    (Atmel, Intel, STM, Winbond, SST, or Spansion) as the device family is selected at compile time.
  • Allows the user application to perform Control operations on Intel, STM, Winbond, SST, and Spansion Serial Flash.
  • Requires the underlying hardware platform to contain the axi_quad_spi, ps7_spi, ps7_qspi, psu_qspi,  psu_spi or psv_ospi device for accessing the Serial Flash.
  • Uses the Xilinx® SPI interface drivers in interrupt-driven mode or polled mode for communicating with the Serial Flash.
  • In interrupt mode, the application is required to register a callback to the library and the library registers an internal status handler to the selected
    interface driver.
  • When the user application requests a library operation, it is initiated and control is given back to the application. The library tracks the status of
    the interface transfers, and notifies the user application upon completion of the selected library operation.

How to enable

xilisf library can be found at
https://github.com/Xilinx/embeddedsw/tree/master/lib/sw_services/xilisf

xilisf

- data - Provides the API and data structure details
|
- src - Driver source files which are further organised into
|
- examples - Contains example applications demonstrating the use of xilisf libray
Select the xilisf library in Vitis 
  • Select Flash Family as below
1 for ATMEL. 2 for INTEL. 3 for STM (M25PXX). 4 for Winbond. 5 for Spansion / Micron. 6 for SST Flash
  • Select Flash interface as below
1 for AXI SPI. 2 for PS SPI. 3 for PS QSPI. 4 for PS OSPI
  • Library supports SPI PS, QSPI PS, QSPIPSU and OSPIPSV interfaces you must select one of the interfaces at compile time.
  • When the user application requests selection of QSPIPS interface during compilation, the QSPI PS or QSPI PSU interface, based on the hardware
    platform are selected. Similarly,if the SPIPS interface is selected during compilation, SPI PS or SPI PSU interface are selected. If PS OSPI is selected
    during compilation, OSPIPSV interface is selected.
