Drives the full flash flow over the existing USB-serial link — enter
bootloader, arm window, stream the ELF block-by-block, reset — with no
external pm3-flash/DFU/JTAG.
- core/flash.py: Flasher (device_info, auto OS->bootloader handover,
flash_image block loop with ACK/NACK+EFC status, reset, end-to-end flash);
ELF32-ARM PT_LOAD parsing; 0xFF-padded block alignment; image resolver.
- core/transport.py: OLD 544-byte frame encode/decode, send_old /
send_old_no_response, magic-branching frame reader, reopen() for USB
re-enumeration.
- core/protocol.py: DEVICE_INFO flags, START_FLASH_MAGIC, flash geometry,
BL version helpers.
- Wired as pm3.flasher; reachable through the sync proxy.
Safety: fullimage-only by default; bootrom region refused unless
allow_bootrom=True; every block bounds-checked against the flash window.
Verification is per-block ACK/NACK (as the C flasher does); read-back verify
and hardware validation are follow-ups. 22 tests; suite 1026 pass.
