HI jagan and ta
Hi,
Please don't top post in the future.
I might have a different view， the caller can not get the correct response even though we can not operate the device sucessfully.
I think it is necessary to return a valid value. if return 0, the device cannot actually be operated but the correct
Actually the last recommendation was to just print a debug message and then fallthrough the erase/write methods and let the flash ignore the commands on the protected areas. So no change in functionality, but merely a debug message that informs the user that there are protected areas in the requested length and the flash will ignore erases and writes on those.
results are not possible
Erases and writes on the remaining unprotected sectors are working fine, aren't they?
Cheers, ta

When operating the write-protection flash,spi_flash_std_write() and spi_flash_std_erase() would return wrong result.The flash is protected, but write or erase the flash would show "OK".
Check the flash write protection state if the write-protection has enbale before operating the flash.

Agreed this point, Chao are you fine to do this change while applying it?
