# eFuse Manager

[中文]

## Introduction

eFuse (Electronic Fuses) are microscopic one-time programmable fuses that can be "burned" (i.e., programmed) to store data into the ESP32-C2. eFuse bits are organized into different data fields, and these data fields could be used for system parameters (i.e., data parameters used by ESP-IDF of ESP32-C2) or user defined parameters.

The eFuse Manager component is a collection of tools and APIs that assist with defining, burning, accessing eFuses parameters. The notable tools and APIs include:

- A table format used to define eFuse data fields in CSV file.

- `efuse_table_gen.py` tool to generate C structure representation of eFuse data fields specified by the CSV file.

- Collection of C API to read/write eFuse data fields.

## eFuse Manager vs `idf.py`

`idf.py` provides a subset of the functionality of the eFuse Manager via the `idf.py efuse-<subcommand>` commands. In this documentation, mostly `idf.py` based commands will be used, although you can still see some `espefuse.py` based commands for advanced or rare cases. To see all available commands, run `idf.py --help` and search for those prefixed with `efuse-`.

## Hardware Description

The ESP32-C2 has a number of eFuses which can store system and user parameters. Each eFuse is a one-bit field which can be programmed to 1 after which it cannot be reverted back to 0. The eFuse bits are grouped into blocks of 256 bits, where each block is further divided into 8 32-bit registers. Some blocks are reserved for system parameters while the remaining blocks can be used for user parameters.

For more details, see ESP32-C2 Technical Reference Manual > eFuse Controller (eFuse) [PDF].

ESP32-C2 has 4 eFuse blocks each containing 256 bits (not all bits can be used for user parameters):

- EFUSE_BLK0 is used entirely for system parameters

- EFUSE_BLK1 is used entirely for system parameters

- EFUSE_BLK2 is used entirely for system parameters

- EFUSE_BLK3 (also named EFUSE_BLK_KEY0) can be used to store keys for Secure Boot or Flash Encryption. If both features are unused, these blocks can be used for user parameters.

## Defining eFuse Fields

eFuse fields are defined as a table of records in a CSV file according to a specific format. This record format provides the ability to form eFuse fields of any length and from any number of individual bits.

Moreover, the record format allows structured definition of eFuse fields consisting of sub-fields, meaning that a parent eFuse field may consist of multiple child eFuse fields occupying the same eFuse bits.

### Record Format

In simple cases, each record occupies a single row in the table. Each record contains the following values (i.e., columns):

    # field_name, efuse_block(EFUSE_BLK0..EFUSE_BLK3), bit_start(0..255), bit_count(1..256), comment

- `field_name`

  > - Name of the eFuse field.

  > - The prefix `ESP_EFUSE_` is automatically added to the name, and this name will be used when referring to the field in C code.

  > - `field_name` unique across all eFuse fields.

  > - If this value is left empty, then this record is combined with the previous record. This allows you define an eFuse field with arbitrary bit ordering (see `MAC_FACTORY` field in the common table).

  > - Using `.` will define a child eFuse field. See Structured eFuse Fields for more details.

- `efuse_block`

  > - The eFuse field's block number. E.g., EFUSE_BLK0 to EFUSE_BLK3.

  > - This determines which block the eFuse field is placed.

- `bit_start`

  > - Bit offset (0 to 255) of the eFuse within the block.

  > - `bit_start` is optional and can be omitted.

  >   > - In this case, it is set to `bit_start + bit_count` from the previous record, given that the previous record is in the same eFuse block.

  >   > - If the previous record is in a different eFuse block, an error will be generated.

- `bit_count`

  > - The size of the eFuse field in bits (1 to N).

  > - `bit_count` cannot be omitted.

  > - If set to `MAX_BLK_LEN` the eFuse field's size will be the maximum allowable eFuse field size in the block.

- `comment`

  > - Comment describing the eFuse field.

  > - The comment is copied verbatim into the C header file.

If an eFuse field requires non-sequential bit ordering, then the eFuse field will span multiple records (i.e., multiple rows). The first record's `field_name` should specify the eFuse field's name, and the following records should leave `field_name` blank to indicate that they belong to the same eFuse field.

The following example demonstrates the records to specify the non-sequential eFuse field `MAC_FACTORY` followed by a regular eFuse field `MAC_FACTORY_CRC`:

    # Factory MAC address #
    #######################
    MAC_FACTORY,            EFUSE_BLK0,    72,    8,    Factory MAC addr [0]
    ,                       EFUSE_BLK0,    64,    8,    Factory MAC addr [1]
    ,                       EFUSE_BLK0,    56,    8,    Factory MAC addr [2]
    ,                       EFUSE_BLK0,    48,    8,    Factory MAC addr [3]
    ,                       EFUSE_BLK0,    40,    8,    Factory MAC addr [4]
    ,                       EFUSE_BLK0,    32,    8,    Factory MAC addr [5]
    MAC_FACTORY_CRC,        EFUSE_BLK0,    80,    8,    CRC8 for factory MAC address

This eFuse fields will be made available in C code as `ESP_EFUSE_MAC_FACTORY` and `ESP_EFUSE_MAC_FACTORY_CRC`.

## Structured eFuse Fields

Typically, an eFuse field represents a particular parameter. However, in some cases where an eFuse field consists of multiple sub-fields, it may be useful to have isolated access to those sub-fields. For example, if an eFuse field contained a floating point parameter, it may be useful to be access the sign, exponent, and mantissa fields of the floating as separate eFuse fields.

Therefore, it is possible for records to define eFuse fields in a structured manner using the `.` operator in `field_name`. For example, `XX.YY.ZZ` defines a eFuse field `ZZ` that is a child of eFuse field `YY` which in turn is a child field of eFuse field `XX`.

The following records demonstrate the definition of eFuse fields in a structured manner:

    WR_DIS,                           EFUSE_BLK0,   0,    32,     Write protection
    WR_DIS.RD_DIS,                    EFUSE_BLK0,   0,    1,      Write protection for RD_DIS
    WR_DIS.FIELD_1,                   EFUSE_BLK0,   1,    1,      Write protection for FIELD_1
    WR_DIS.FIELD_2,                   EFUSE_BLK0,   2,    4,      Write protection for FIELD_2 (includes B1 and B2)
    WR_DIS.FIELD_2.B1,                EFUSE_BLK0,   2,    2,      Write protection for FIELD_2.B1
    WR_DIS.FIELD_2.B2,                EFUSE_BLK0,   4,    2,      Write protection for FIELD_2.B2
    WR_DIS.FIELD_3,                   EFUSE_BLK0,   5,    1,      Write protection for FIELD_3
    WR_DIS.FIELD_3.ALIAS,             EFUSE_BLK0,   5,    1,      Write protection for FIELD_3 (just a alias for WR_DIS.FIELD_3)
    WR_DIS.FIELD_4,                   EFUSE_BLK0,   7,    1,      Write protection for FIELD_4

Some things to note regarding the example above:

- The `WR_DIS` record defines the parent eFuse field. All the other records are child fields of `WR_DIS` due to their `WR_DIS.` prefix.

- The child fields must utilize the same bits as their parent field. Take note of `bit_start` and `bit_count` of the child and parent fields:

  > - The bits of the child fields are always in the range of their parent field. For example, `WR_DIS.RD_DIS` and `WR_DIS.RD_DIS` occupy the first and second bit of `WR_DIS`.

  > - Child fields cannot use overlapping bits (except for when aliasing).

- It is possible to create aliases as a child field. For example, `WR_DIS.FIELD_3.ALIAS` is a child field and alias of `WR_DIS.FIELD_3` as they both occupy the same bits.

All eFuse Fields are eventually converted to C structures via the `efuse_table_gen.py` tool. The C structure for each eFuse field will derive their identifier from the `field_name` of the eFuse field's record, where all `.` are replaced with `_`. For example, the C symbols for `WR_DIS.RD_DIS` and `WR_DIS.FIELD_2.B1` will be `ESP_EFUSE_WR_DIS_RD_DIS` and `ESP_EFUSE_WR_DIS_FIELD_2_B1` respectively.

The `efuse_table_gen.py` tool also checks that the fields do not overlap each other and must be within the range of a field. If there is a violation, then the following error is generated:

    Field at USER_DATA, EFUSE_BLK3, 0, 256 intersected with SERIAL_NUMBER, EFUSE_BLK3, 0, 32

In this case, the error can be resolved by making `SERIAL_NUMBER` a child field of `USER_DATA` via `USER_DATA.SERIAL_NUMBER`.

    Field at FIELD, EFUSE_BLK3, 0, 50 out of range FIELD.MAJOR_NUMBER, EFUSE_BLK3, 60, 32

In this case, the error can be resolved by changing `bit_start` for `FIELD.MAJOR_NUMBER` from `60` to `0` so that `MAJOR_NUMBER` overlaps with `FIELD`.

## `efuse_table_gen.py` Tool

The `efuse_table_gen.py` tool is designed to generate C source files containing C structures (of type `esp_efuse_desc_t`) representing the eFuse fields defined in CSV files. Moreover, the tool also runs some checks on the provided CSV files before generation to ensure that:

- the names of the eFuse fields are unique

- the eFuse fields do not use overlapping bits

As mentioned previously, eFuse fields can be used to hold either system parameters or user parameters. Given that system parameter eFuse fields are inherently required by ESP-IDF and ESP32-C2, those eFuse fields are defined in a common CSV file (`esp_efuse_table.csv`) and distributed as part of ESP-IDF. For user parameter eFuse fields, users should define those fields in a custom CSV file (e.g., `esp_efuse_custom_table.csv`).

To generate C source files using the common CSV file, use the `idf.py efuse-common-table` or the following:

    cd $IDF_PATH/components/efuse/
    ./efuse_table_gen.py --idf_target esp32c2 esp32c2/esp_efuse_table.csv

The following C source/header files will be generated by the tool in `$IDF_PATH/components/efuse/esp32c2`:

- `esp_efuse_table.c` file containing the C structures of the system parameter eFuse fields

- `esp_efuse_table.h` file in the `include` folder. This header can be included by the application to use those C structures.

To generate C source files using a custom CSV file, use the command `idf.py efuse-custom-table` or the following:

    cd $IDF_PATH/components/efuse/
    ./efuse_table_gen.py --idf_target esp32c2 esp32c2/esp_efuse_table.csv PROJECT_PATH/main/esp_efuse_custom_table.csv

The following C source/header files will be generated by the tool in `PROJECT_PATH/main`:

- `esp_efuse_custom_table.c` file containing the C structures of the user parameter eFuse fields

- `esp_efuse_custom_table.h` file in the `include` folder. This header can be included by the application to use those C structures.

To use the generated fields, you need to include two files:

    #include "esp_efuse.h"
    #include "esp_efuse_table.h" // or "esp_efuse_custom_table.h"

## Supported Coding Schemes

Various coding schemes are supported by eFuses which can protect eFuses against data corruption by detecting and/or correcting for errors.

ESP32-C2 does not support selection of coding schemes. The following coding schemes are automatically applied to various eFuse blocks:

- `None`: Applied to EFUSE_BLK0

- `RS`: Applied to EFUSE_BLK1 - EFUSE_BLK3

### `None` Coding Scheme

The `None` coding scheme is automatically applied to EFUSE_BLK0. This scheme does not involve any encoding, but simply maintains four backups of EFUSE_BLK0 in hardware, meaning each bit is stored four times. As a result, EFUSE_BLK0 can be written many times.

This scheme is automatically applied by the hardware and is not visible to software.

### `RS` Coding Scheme

The `RS` coding scheme uses Reed-Solomon encoding and is automatically applied to EFUSE_BLK1 to EFUSE_BLK3. The coding scheme supports up to 6 bytes of automatic error correction.

Software encodes the 32-byte EFUSE_BLKx using `RS(44, 32)` to generate a 12-byte check-symbols, and then burn the EFUSE_BLKx and the check-symbols into eFuse at the same time.

The eFuse Controller automatically decodes the `RS` encoding and applies error correction when reading back the eFuse block. Because the `RS` check-symbols are generated across the entire 256-bit eFuse block, each block can only be written to one time. As a result of the check-symbols, Batch Writing Mode must be used.

### Batch Writing Mode

When writing to eFuse fields at run time, it may be necessary to use the Batch Writing Mode depending on the coding scheme used for eFuse block. Batch writing mode can be used as follows:

1. Enable batch writing mode by calling `esp_efuse_batch_write_begin()`

2. Write to the eFuse fields as usual using various `esp_efuse_write_...` functions.

3. Once all writes are complete, call `esp_efuse_batch_write_commit()` which burns prepared data to the eFuse blocks.

Warning

If there is already pre-written data in the eFuse block using the `Reed-Solomon` encoding scheme, then it is not possible to write anything extra (even if the required bits are empty) without breaking the previous data's checksums/check-symbols.

The checksums/check-symbols will be overwritten with new checksums/check-symbols and be completely destroyed (however, the payload eFuses are not damaged).

If you happen to find pre-written data in CUSTOM_MAC, SPI_PAD_CONFIG_HD, SPI_PAD_CONFIG_CS, etc., please contact Espressif to obtain the required pre-burnt eFuses.

FOR TESTING ONLY (NOT RECOMMENDED): You can ignore or suppress errors that violate encoding scheme data in order to burn the necessary bits in the eFuse block.

## eFuse API

Access to the fields is via a pointer to the description structure. API functions have some basic operation:

- `esp_efuse_read_field_blob()` - returns an array of read eFuse bits.

- `esp_efuse_read_field_cnt()` - returns the number of bits programmed as "1".

- `esp_efuse_write_field_blob()` - writes an array.

- `esp_efuse_write_field_cnt()` - writes a required count of bits as "1".

- `esp_efuse_get_field_size()` - returns the number of bits by the field name.

- `esp_efuse_read_reg()` - returns value of eFuse register.

- `esp_efuse_write_reg()` - writes value to eFuse register.

- `esp_efuse_get_coding_scheme()` - returns eFuse coding scheme for blocks.

- `esp_efuse_read_block()` - reads a key from an eFuse block starting at the offset with required size.

- `esp_efuse_write_block()` - writes a key to an eFuse block starting at the offset with required size.

- `esp_efuse_batch_write_begin()` - set the batch mode of writing fields.

- `esp_efuse_batch_write_commit()` - writes all prepared data for batch writing mode and reset the batch writing mode.

- `esp_efuse_batch_write_cancel()` - reset the batch writing mode and prepared data.

- `esp_efuse_get_key_dis_read()` - Returns a read protection for the key block.

- `esp_efuse_set_key_dis_read()` - Sets a read protection for the key block.

- `esp_efuse_get_key_dis_write()` - Returns a write protection for the key block.

- `esp_efuse_set_key_dis_write()` - Sets a write protection for the key block.

- `esp_efuse_get_key_purpose()` - Returns the current purpose set for an eFuse key block.

- `esp_efuse_write_key()` - Programs a block of key data to an eFuse block.

- `esp_efuse_write_keys()` - Programs keys to unused eFuse blocks.

- `esp_efuse_find_purpose()` - Finds a key block with the particular purpose set.

- `esp_efuse_get_keypurpose_dis_write()` - Returns a write protection of the key purpose field for an eFuse key block (for esp32 always true).

- `esp_efuse_key_block_unused()` - Returns true if the key block is unused, false otherwise.

- `esp_efuse_destroy_block()` - Destroys the data in this eFuse block. There are two things to do: (1) if write protection is not set, then the remaining unset bits are burned, (2) set read protection for this block if it is not locked.

For frequently used fields, special functions are made, like this `esp_efuse_get_pkg_ver()`.

    Note: Not printed ranges are free for using. (bits in EFUSE_BLK0 are reserved for Espressif)

The number of bits not included in square brackets are free (some bits are reserved by Espressif). All fields are checked for overlapping bits.

To add child fields to an existing field, Structured eFuse Fields can be used. The following example demonstrates adding of the the fields `SERIAL_NUMBER`, `MODEL_NUMBER` and `HARDWARE_REV` to an existing `USER_DATA` field by using the `.` operator:

    USER_DATA.SERIAL_NUMBER,                  EFUSE_BLK3,    0,  32,
    USER_DATA.MODEL_NUMBER,                   EFUSE_BLK3,    32, 10,
    USER_DATA.HARDWARE_REV,                   EFUSE_BLK3,    42, 10,

In general, to add new eFuse Fields:

1. Add a record for each eFuse field in CSV file.

2. Run the `show_efuse_table` command to check eFuse table.

3. To generate source files run the `efuse_common_table` or `efuse_custom_table` commands.

You may get errors such as `intersects with` or `out of range`. Please see how to solve them in the Structured eFuse Fields article.

## Bit Order

The eFuses bit order is little endian (see the example below), meaning that eFuse bits are read and written from LSB to MSB:

    $ idf.py efuse-dump

    USER_DATA      (BLOCK3          ) [3 ] read_regs: 03020100 07060504 0B0A0908 0F0E0D0C 13121111 17161514 1B1A1918 1F1E1D1C
    BLOCK4         (BLOCK4          ) [4 ] read_regs: 03020100 07060504 0B0A0908 0F0E0D0C 13121111 17161514 1B1A1918 1F1E1D1C

    where is the register representation:

    EFUSE_RD_USR_DATA0_REG = 0x03020100
    EFUSE_RD_USR_DATA1_REG = 0x07060504
    EFUSE_RD_USR_DATA2_REG = 0x0B0A0908
    EFUSE_RD_USR_DATA3_REG = 0x0F0E0D0C
    EFUSE_RD_USR_DATA4_REG = 0x13121111
    EFUSE_RD_USR_DATA5_REG = 0x17161514
    EFUSE_RD_USR_DATA6_REG = 0x1B1A1918
    EFUSE_RD_USR_DATA7_REG = 0x1F1E1D1C

    where is the byte representation:

    byte[0] = 0x00, byte[1] = 0x01, ... byte[3] = 0x03, byte[4] = 0x04, ..., byte[31] = 0x1F

For example, CSV file describes the `USER_DATA` field, which occupies all 256 bits (a whole block).

    USER_DATA,          EFUSE_BLK3,    0,  256,     User data
    USER_DATA.FIELD1,   EFUSE_BLK3,    16,  16,     Field1

    ID,                 EFUSE_BLK4,    8,  3,      ID bit[0..2]
    ,                   EFUSE_BLK4,    16, 2,      ID bit[3..4]
    ,                   EFUSE_BLK4,    32, 3,      ID bit[5..7]

Thus, reading the eFuse `USER_DATA` block written as above gives the following results:

    uint8_t buf[32] = { 0 };
    esp_efuse_read_field_blob(ESP_EFUSE_USER_DATA, &buf, sizeof(buf) * 8);
    // buf[0] = 0x00, buf[1] = 0x01, ... buf[31] = 0x1F

    uint32_t field1 = 0;
    size_t field1_size = ESP_EFUSE_USER_DATA[0]->bit_count; // can be used for this case because it only consists of one entry
    esp_efuse_read_field_blob(ESP_EFUSE_USER_DATA, &field1, field1_size);
    // field1 = 0x0302

    uint32_t field1_1 = 0;
    esp_efuse_read_field_blob(ESP_EFUSE_USER_DATA, &field1_1, 2); // reads only first 2 bits
    // field1 = 0x0002

    uint8_t id = 0;
    size_t id_size = esp_efuse_get_field_size(ESP_EFUSE_ID); // returns 6
    // size_t id_size = ESP_EFUSE_USER_DATA[0]->bit_count; // cannot be used because it consists of 3 entries. It returns 3 not 6
    esp_efuse_read_field_blob(ESP_EFUSE_ID, &id, id_size);
    // id = 0x91
    // b'100 10  001
    //   [3] [2] [3]

    uint8_t id_1 = 0;
    esp_efuse_read_field_blob(ESP_EFUSE_ID, &id_1, 3);
    // id = 0x01
    // b'001

## Get eFuses During Build

There is a way to get the state of eFuses at the build stage of the project. There are two CMake functions for this:

- `espefuse_get_json_summary()` - It calls the `espefuse.py summary --format json` command and returns a JSON string (it is not stored in a file).

- `espefuse_get_efuse()` - It finds a given eFuse name in the JSON string and returns its property.

The JSON string has the following properties:

    {
        "MAC": {
            "bit_len": 48,
            "block": 0,
            "category": "identity",
            "description": "Factory MAC Address",
            "efuse_type": "bytes:6",
            "name": "MAC",
            "pos": 0,
            "readable": true,
            "value": "94:b9:7e:5a:6e:58 (CRC 0xe2 OK)",
            "word": 1,
            "writeable": true
        },
    }

These functions can be used from a top-level project `CMakeLists.txt` (system/efuse/CMakeLists.txt):

    # ...
    project(hello_world)

    espefuse_get_json_summary(efuse_json)
    espefuse_get_efuse(ret_data ${efuse_json} "MAC" "value")
    message("MAC:" ${ret_data})

The format of the `value` property is the same as shown in `espefuse.py summary` or `idf.py efuse-summary`.

    MAC:94:b9:7e:5a:6e:58 (CRC 0xe2 OK)

There is an example test system/efuse/CMakeLists.txt which adds a custom target `efuse-filter`. This allows you to run the `idf.py efuse-filter` command to read the required eFuses (specified in the `efuse_names` list) at any time, not just during the project build.

## Debug eFuse & Unit Tests

### Virtual eFuses

The Kconfig option CONFIG_EFUSE_VIRTUAL virtualizes eFuse values inside the eFuse Manager, so writes are emulated and no eFuse values are permanently changed. This can be useful for debugging and unit testing.

During startup, the eFuses are copied to RAM. All eFuse operations (read and write) are performed with RAM instead of the real eFuse registers.

In addition to the CONFIG_EFUSE_VIRTUAL option, there is the CONFIG_EFUSE_VIRTUAL_KEEP_IN_FLASH option that adds a feature to keep eFuses in flash memory. To use this mode, the partition_table should have include an `efuse` partition in `partition.csv`:

    efuse_em, data, efuse,   ,   0x2000,

During startup, the eFuses are copied from flash, or in case where flash is empty, copied from real eFuse to RAM and then write flash. This option allows keeping eFuses after reboots, making it possible to test Secure Boot and Flash Encryption features.

#### Flash Encryption Testing

Flash encryption is a hardware feature that requires the physical burning of eFuses `key` and `FLASH_CRYPT_CNT`. If flash encryption is not actually enabled, then enabling the CONFIG_EFUSE_VIRTUAL_KEEP_IN_FLASH option just provides testing possibilities and does not encrypt anything in the flash, even though the logs indicates that encryption happens.

The `bootloader_flash_write()` is adapted for this purpose. But if flash encryption is already enabled on the chip when the application is run, or if the bootloader is created with the CONFIG_EFUSE_VIRTUAL_KEEP_IN_FLASH option, then the flash encryption/decryption operations will work properly. This means that data are encrypted as it is written into an encrypted flash partition and decrypted when they are read from an encrypted partition.

### `espefuse.py`

esptool includes a useful tool for reading/writing ESP32-C2 eFuse bits - espefuse.py.

Part of the functionality of this tool is also provided directly by `idf.py` commands. For example, the `idf.py efuse-summary` command is equivalent to `espefuse.py summary`.

    idf.py efuse-summary

    Executing action: efuse-summary
    (...)

### Functions

esp_err_t esp_efuse_read_field_blob(const esp_efuse_desc_t *field[], void *dst, size_t dst_size_bits)

  Reads bits from EFUSE field and writes it into an array.

  The number of read bits will be limited to the minimum value from the description of the bits in "field" structure or "dst_size_bits" required size. Use "esp_efuse_get_field_size()" function to determine the length of the field.

  Note

  Please note that reading in the batch mode does not show uncommitted changes.

  Parameters:

    - field -- [in] A pointer to the structure describing the fields of efuse.

    - dst -- [out] A pointer to array that will contain the result of reading.

    - dst_size_bits -- [in] The number of bits required to read. If the requested number of bits is greater than the field, the number will be limited to the field size.

  Returns:

    - ESP_OK: The operation was successfully completed.

    - ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: Error in the passed arguments.

bool esp_efuse_read_field_bit(const esp_efuse_desc_t *field[])

  Read a single bit eFuse field as a boolean value.

  Note

  The value must exist and must be a single bit wide. If there is any possibility of an error in the provided arguments, call esp_efuse_read_field_blob() and check the returned value instead.

  Note

  If assertions are enabled and the parameter is invalid, execution will abort

  Note

  Please note that reading in the batch mode does not show uncommitted changes.

  Parameters:

    field -- [in] A pointer to the structure describing the fields of efuse.

  Returns:

    - true: The field parameter is valid and the bit is set.

    - false: The bit is not set, or the parameter is invalid and assertions are disabled.

esp_err_t esp_efuse_read_field_cnt(const esp_efuse_desc_t *field[], size_t *out_cnt)

  Reads bits from EFUSE field and returns number of bits programmed as "1".

  If the bits are set not sequentially, they will still be counted.

  Note

  Please note that reading in the batch mode does not show uncommitted changes.

  Parameters:

    - field -- [in] A pointer to the structure describing the fields of efuse.

    - out_cnt -- [out] A pointer that will contain the number of programmed as "1" bits.

  Returns:

    - ESP_OK: The operation was successfully completed.

    - ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: Error in the passed arguments.

esp_err_t esp_efuse_write_field_blob(const esp_efuse_desc_t *field[], const void *src, size_t src_size_bits)

  Writes array to EFUSE field.

  The number of write bits will be limited to the minimum value from the description of the bits in "field" structure or "src_size_bits" required size. Use "esp_efuse_get_field_size()" function to determine the length of the field. After the function is completed, the writing registers are cleared.

  Parameters:

    - field -- [in] A pointer to the structure describing the fields of efuse.

    - src -- [in] A pointer to array that contains the data for writing.

    - src_size_bits -- [in] The number of bits required to write.

  Returns:

    - ESP_OK: The operation was successfully completed.

    - ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: Error in the passed arguments.

    - ESP_ERR_EFUSE_REPEATED_PROG: Error repeated programming of programmed bits is strictly forbidden.

    - ESP_ERR_CODING: Error range of data does not match the coding scheme.

esp_err_t esp_efuse_write_field_cnt(const esp_efuse_desc_t *field[], size_t cnt)

  Writes a required count of bits as "1" to EFUSE field.

  If there are no free bits in the field to set the required number of bits to "1", ESP_ERR_EFUSE_CNT_IS_FULL error is returned, the field will not be partially recorded. After the function is completed, the writing registers are cleared.

  Parameters:

    - field -- [in] A pointer to the structure describing the fields of efuse.

    - cnt -- [in] Required number of programmed as "1" bits.

  Returns:

    - ESP_OK: The operation was successfully completed.

    - ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: Error in the passed arguments.

    - ESP_ERR_EFUSE_CNT_IS_FULL: Not all requested cnt bits is set.

esp_err_t esp_efuse_write_field_bit(const esp_efuse_desc_t *field[])

  Write a single bit eFuse field to 1.

  For use with eFuse fields that are a single bit. This function will write the bit to value 1 if it is not already set, or does nothing if the bit is already set.

  This is equivalent to calling esp_efuse_write_field_cnt() with the cnt parameter equal to 1, except that it will return ESP_OK if the field is already set to 1.

  Parameters:

    field -- [in] Pointer to the structure describing the efuse field.

  Returns:

    - ESP_OK: The operation was successfully completed, or the bit was already set to value 1.

    - ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: Error in the passed arguments, including if the efuse field is not 1 bit wide.

esp_err_t esp_efuse_set_write_protect(esp_efuse_block_t blk)

  Sets a write protection for the whole block.

  After that, it is impossible to write to this block. The write protection does not apply to block 0.

  Parameters:

    blk -- [in] Block number of eFuse. (EFUSE_BLK1, EFUSE_BLK2 and EFUSE_BLK3)

  Returns:

    - ESP_OK: The operation was successfully completed.

    - ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: Error in the passed arguments.

    - ESP_ERR_EFUSE_CNT_IS_FULL: Not all requested cnt bits is set.

    - ESP_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED: The block does not support this command.

esp_err_t esp_efuse_set_read_protect(esp_efuse_block_t blk)

  Sets a read protection for the whole block.

void esp_efuse_reset(void)

  Reset efuse write registers.

  Efuse write registers are written to zero, to negate any changes that have been staged here.

  Note

  This function is not threadsafe, if calling code updates efuse values from multiple tasks then this is caller's responsibility to serialise.

esp_err_t esp_efuse_disable_rom_download_mode(void)

  Disable ROM Download Mode via eFuse.

  Permanently disables the ROM Download Mode feature. Once disabled, if the SoC is booted with strapping pins set for ROM Download Mode then an error is printed instead.

  Note

  Not all SoCs support this option. An error will be returned if called on an ESP32 with a silicon revision lower than 3, as these revisions do not support this option.

  Note

  If ROM Download Mode is already disabled, this function does nothing and returns success.

  Returns:

    - ESP_OK If the eFuse was successfully burned, or had already been burned.

    - ESP_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED (ESP32 only) This SoC is not capable of disabling UART download mode

    - ESP_ERR_INVALID_STATE (ESP32 only) This eFuse is write protected and cannot be written

esp_err_t esp_efuse_set_rom_log_scheme(esp_efuse_rom_log_scheme_t log_scheme)

  Parameters:

    log_scheme -- Supported ROM log scheme

  Returns:

    - ESP_OK If the eFuse was successfully burned, or had already been burned.

    - ESP_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED (ESP32 only) This SoC is not capable of setting ROM log scheme

    - ESP_ERR_INVALID_STATE This eFuse is write protected or has been burned already

esp_err_t esp_efuse_enable_rom_secure_download_mode(void)

  Switch ROM Download Mode to Secure Download mode via eFuse.

  Permanently enables Secure Download mode. This mode limits the use of ROM Download Mode functions to simple flash read, write and erase operations, plus a command to return a summary of currently enabled security features.

  Note

  If Secure Download mode is already enabled, this function does nothing and returns success.

  Note

  If UART DL mode is completely disabled then Secure Download mode can not be enabled and this API simply returns success.

  Returns:

    - ESP_OK If the eFuse was successfully burned, or had already been burned, or UART DL mode is already disabled.

    - Other errors If an error occurred while burning ESP_EFUSE_ENABLE_SECURITY_DOWNLOAD.

  Returns:

    - ESP_OK: Successful.

    - ESP_FAIL: secure version of app cannot be set to efuse field.

    - ESP_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED: Anti rollback is not supported with the 3/4 and Repeat coding scheme.

esp_err_t esp_efuse_batch_write_begin(void)

  Set the batch mode of writing fields.

  This mode allows you to write the fields in the batch mode when need to burn several efuses at one time. To enable batch mode call begin() then perform as usually the necessary operations read and write and at the end call commit() to actually burn all written efuses. The batch mode can be used nested. The commit will be done by the last commit() function. The number of begin() functions should be equal to the number of commit() functions.

  Note: If batch mode is enabled by the first task, at this time the second task cannot write/read efuses. The second task will wait for the first task to complete the batch operation.

      // Example of using the batch writing mode.

      // set the batch writing mode
      esp_efuse_batch_write_begin();

      // use any writing functions as usual
      esp_efuse_write_field_blob(ESP_EFUSE_...);
      esp_efuse_write_field_cnt(ESP_EFUSE_...);
      esp_efuse_set_write_protect(EFUSE_BLKx);
      esp_efuse_write_reg(EFUSE_BLKx, ...);
      esp_efuse_write_block(EFUSE_BLKx, ...);
      esp_efuse_write(ESP_EFUSE_1, 3);  // ESP_EFUSE_1 == 1, here we write a new value = 3. The changes will be burn by the commit() function.
      esp_efuse_read_...(ESP_EFUSE_1);  // this function returns ESP_EFUSE_1 == 1 because uncommitted changes are not readable, it will be available only after commit.
      ...

      // esp_efuse_batch_write APIs can be called recursively.
      esp_efuse_batch_write_begin();
      esp_efuse_set_write_protect(EFUSE_BLKx);
      esp_efuse_batch_write_commit(); // the burn will be skipped here, it will be done in the last commit().

      ...

      // Write all of these fields to the efuse registers
      esp_efuse_batch_write_commit();
      esp_efuse_read_...(ESP_EFUSE_1);  // this function returns ESP_EFUSE_1 == 3.

esp_err_t esp_efuse_write_keys(const esp_efuse_purpose_t purposes[], uint8_t keys[][32], unsigned number_of_keys)

  Program keys to unused efuse blocks.

  The burn of keys, protection bits, and purposes happens in batch mode.

  Note

  This API also enables the read protection efuse bit for certain key blocks like XTS-AES, HMAC, ECDSA etc. This ensures that the key is only accessible to hardware peripheral.

  Note

  For SoC's with capability `SOC_EFUSE_ECDSA_USE_HARDWARE_K` (e.g., ESP32-H2), this API writes an additional efuse bit for ECDSA key purpose to enforce hardware TRNG generated k mode in the peripheral.

  Parameters:

    - purposes -- [in] Array of purposes (purpose[number_of_keys]).

    - keys -- [in] Array of keys (uint8_t keys[number_of_keys][32]). Each key is 32 bytes long.

    - number_of_keys -- [in] The number of keys to write (up to 6 keys).

  Returns:

    - ESP_OK: Successful.

    - ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: Error in the passed arguments.

esp_err_t esp_secure_boot_read_key_digests(esp_secure_boot_key_digests_t *trusted_key_digests)

  Read key digests from efuse. Any revoked/missing digests will be marked as NULL.

  Parameters:

    trusted_key_digests -- [out] Trusted keys digests, stored in this parameter after successfully completing this function. The number of digests depends on the SOC's capabilities.

  Returns:

    - ESP_OK: Successful.

    - ESP_FAIL: If trusted_keys is NULL or there is no valid digest.

esp_err_t esp_efuse_check_errors(void)

  Checks eFuse errors in BLOCK0.

  It does a BLOCK0 check if eFuse EFUSE_ERR_RST_ENABLE is set. If BLOCK0 has an error, it prints the error and returns ESP_FAIL, which should be treated as esp_restart.

  Note

  Refers to ESP32-C3 only.

  Returns:

    - ESP_OK: No errors in BLOCK0.

    - ESP_FAIL: Error in BLOCK0 requiring reboot.

esp_err_t esp_efuse_destroy_block(esp_efuse_block_t block)

  Destroys the data in the given efuse block, if possible.

  Data destruction occurs through the following steps: 1) Destroy data in the block:

  - If write protection is inactive for the block, then unset bits are burned.

  - If write protection is active, the block remains unaltered. 2) Set read protection for the block if possible (check write-protection for RD_DIS). In this case, data becomes inaccessible, and the software reads it as all zeros. If write protection is enabled and read protection can not be set, data in the block remains readable (returns an error).

  Do not use the batch mode with this function as it does the burning itself!

  Parameters:

    block -- [in] A key block in the range EFUSE_BLK_KEY0..EFUSE_BLK_KEY_MAX

  Returns:

    - ESP_OK: Successful.

    - ESP_FAIL: Data remained readable because the block is write-protected and read protection can not be set.
