Detailed Description

This is an interface between the disk interface (which will handle the disk data transactions) and the timing model.

The timing model only takes care of calculating the appropriate delay to the disk, and calling back a function when the action has completed. All the other associated actions (such as getting data from A to B) should be taken care of by the disk interface.

Member Function Documentation

◆ initializeMemory()

virtual void AbstractNVM::initializeMemory	(	uint64_t	disk_size,
		uint32_t	sector_size
	)

pure virtual

Initialize Memory.

This function is used to set the memory device dimensions to the dimensions that it controls. For instance, One can imagine that the memory is one disk, e.g. the /data partition of Android, which means that the data handling part will have an image of /data. On the other hand one might want to set up a Raid like configuration, without wanting to create multiple disk images. In that case one can choose to devide the image over multiple memory devices in any way he wants (i.e. higher layers can implement some division based on logical addresses, or intelligent file system interpretation analysis; to effectively devide the disk over the devices; enabling object oriented storage devices). Moving this function outside of the constructor allows you the flexibility to make this decision once the image is loaded.

Parameters

disk_size	disksize in sectors; value can be obtained from the disk image
sector_size	size of one sector in bytes; value is defined in disk_image.hh

Implemented in FlashDevice.

◆ readMemory()

virtual void AbstractNVM::readMemory	(	uint64_t	address,
		uint32_t	amount,
		const std::function< void()> &	event
	)

pure virtual

Access functions Access function to simulate a read/write access to the memory.

Once the action has completed, the Callback event should be called. Putting a NULL pointer as callback is valid syntax, and should result in the simulation of the access, but with no callback to the higher layer. This may be used to occupy the device, such that next actions will be delayed. The read/write function will schedule the incoming requests on a first come first serve basis.

Parameters

address	The logical address to a location in the Non-volatile memory.
amount	The amount of data transfered from the NVM in bytes
event	A pointer to a callback function that will perform the actions taken by the disk controller on successfull completion of the data transfer between the disk and the disk controller.

Implemented in FlashDevice.

◆ writeMemory()

virtual void AbstractNVM::writeMemory	(	uint64_t	address,
		uint32_t	amount,
		const std::function< void()> &	event
	)

pure virtual

Implemented in FlashDevice.
