Flash Application Program
/*
*
* This application program demonstrates the user program
* interface to the Flash PROM driver.
*
* One can read or write a number of bytes up to the size of
* the user PROM by means of pread() and pwrite() calls.
* All other functions of the PROM can be accessed by
* means of ioctl() calls such as:
* -) identify the chip,
* -) query block,
* -) lock block/unlock block,
* -) erase block
* Please note that not all of the above ioctl calls are
* available for all flash PROMs. It is the user’s
* responsibility to find out the features of a given PROM.
* The type, block size, and number of blocks of the PROM
* are returned by "identify" ioctl().
*
* The pwrite() erases the block[s] and then does the
* writing.
*
* Use the following line to compile your custom application
* programs:
* make uflash_test
