//!   erase block, that block is erased first.
//!
//! By this process, there is always a valid parameter block in flash.  If
//! power is lost while writing a new parameter block, the checksum will not
//! match and the partially written parameter block will be ignored.  This is
//! what makes this fault-tolerant.
//!
//! Another benefit of this scheme is that it provides wear leveling on the
//! flash.  Since multiple parameter blocks fit into each erase block of flash,

//! the flash (the first block that is NOT part of the flash memory to be

//! block of flash is to be used.
//! \param ui32Size is the size of the parameter block when stored in flash;
//! this must be a power of two less than or equal to the flash erase block
//! size (typically 1024).
//!
//! This function initializes a fault-tolerant, persistent storage mechanism
//! for a parameter block for an application.  The last several erase blocks
//! of flash (as specified by \e ui32Start and \e ui32End are used for the
//! storage; more than one erase block is required in order to be
//! fault-tolerant.
//!
//! A parameter block is an array of bytes that contain the persistent
//! parameters for the application.  The only special requirement for the
//! parameter block is that the first byte is a sequence number (explained
//! in FlashPBSave()) and the second byte is a checksum used to validate the
//! correctness of the data (the checksum byte is the byte such that the sum of
//! all bytes in the parameter block is zero).
//!
//! The portion of flash for parameter block storage is split into N
//! equal-sized regions, where each region is the size of a parameter block
//! (\e ui32Size).  Each region is scanned to find the most recent valid
//! parameter block.  The region that has a valid checksum and has the highest
//! sequence number (with special consideration given to wrapping back to zero)
//! is considered to be the current parameter block.
//!
//! In order to make this efficient and effective, three conditions must be
//! met.  The first is \e ui32Start and \e ui32End must be specified such that
//! at least two erase blocks of flash are dedicated to parameter block
//! storage.  If not, fault tolerance can not be guaranteed since an erase of a
//! single block will leave a window where there are no valid parameter blocks
//! in flash.  The second condition is that the size (\e ui32Size) of the
//! parameter block must be an integral divisor of the size of an erase block
//! of flash.  If not, a parameter block will end up spanning between two erase
//! blocks of flash, making it more difficult to manage.  The final condition
//! is that the size of the flash dedicated to parameter blocks (\e ui32End -
//! \e ui32Start) divided by the parameter block size (\e ui32Size) must be
//! less than or equal to 128.  If not, it will not be possible in all cases to
//! determine which parameter block is the most recent (specifically when
//! dealing with the sequence number wrapping back to zero).
//!
//! When the microcontroller is initially programmed, the flash blocks used for
//! parameter block storage are left in an erased state.
//!
//! This function must be called before any other flash parameter block
//! functions are called.
