* \section Sec_Description Project Description:
*
* This bootloader enumerates to the host as a Mass Storage device, capable of reading and writing a new binary
* firmware image file, to load firmware onto the AVR.
*
* Out of the box this bootloader builds for the AT90USB1287 with an 8KB bootloader section size, and will fit
* into 6KB of bootloader space. If you wish to alter this size and/or change the AVR model, you will need to
* edit the MCU, FLASH_SIZE_KB and BOOT_SECTION_SIZE_KB values in the accompanying makefile.
*
* When the bootloader is running, the board's LED(s) will flash at regular intervals to distinguish the
* bootloader from the normal user application.
*
* \section Sec_Installation Driver Installation
*
* This bootloader uses the Mass Storage drivers inbuilt into all modern operating systems, thus no additional
* drivers need to be supplied for correct operation.
*
* \section Sec_HostApp Host Controller Application
*
* This bootloader is compatible with all operating systems that support the FAT12 file system format. To reprogram the
* device, overwrite a file stored on the virtual FAT filesystem with a new binary (BIN format) image. Remember to safely
* remove your device from the host using the host OS's ejection APIs, to ensure all data is correctly flushed to the
* bootloader's virtual filesystem and not cached in the OS's file system driver.
*
* The current device firmware can be read from the device by reading a file from the virtual FAT filesystem.
*
* \section Sec_API User Application API
*
* Several user application functions for FLASH and other special memory area manipulations are exposed by the bootloader,
* allowing the user application to call into the bootloader at runtime to read and write FLASH data.
*
* By default, the bootloader API jump table is located 32 bytes from the end of the device's FLASH memory, and follows the
* following layout:
*
* \code
* #define BOOTLOADER_API_TABLE_SIZE 32
* #define BOOTLOADER_API_TABLE_START ((FLASHEND + 1UL) - BOOTLOADER_API_TABLE_SIZE)
* #define BOOTLOADER_API_CALL(Index) (void*)((BOOTLOADER_API_TABLE_START + (Index * 2)) / 2)
*
* void (*BootloaderAPI_ErasePage)(uint32_t Address) = BOOTLOADER_API_CALL(0);
* void (*BootloaderAPI_WritePage)(uint32_t Address) = BOOTLOADER_API_CALL(1);
* void (*BootloaderAPI_FillWord)(uint32_t Address, uint16_t Word) = BOOTLOADER_API_CALL(2);
* uint8_t (*BootloaderAPI_ReadSignature)(uint16_t Address) = BOOTLOADER_API_CALL(3);
* uint8_t (*BootloaderAPI_ReadFuse)(uint16_t Address) = BOOTLOADER_API_CALL(4);
* uint8_t (*BootloaderAPI_ReadLock)(void) = BOOTLOADER_API_CALL(5);
* void (*BootloaderAPI_WriteLock)(uint8_t LockBits) = BOOTLOADER_API_CALL(6);
*
* #define BOOTLOADER_MAGIC_SIGNATURE_START (BOOTLOADER_API_TABLE_START + (BOOTLOADER_API_TABLE_SIZE - 2))
* #define BOOTLOADER_MAGIC_SIGNATURE 0xDCFB
*
* #define BOOTLOADER_CLASS_SIGNATURE_START (BOOTLOADER_API_TABLE_START + (BOOTLOADER_API_TABLE_SIZE - 4))
* #define BOOTLOADER_MASS_STORAGE_SIGNATURE 0xDF30
*
* #define BOOTLOADER_ADDRESS_START (BOOTLOADER_API_TABLE_START + (BOOTLOADER_API_TABLE_SIZE - 8))
* #define BOOTLOADER_ADDRESS_LENGTH 4
* \endcode
*
* From the application the API support of the bootloader can be detected by reading the FLASH memory bytes located at address
* \c BOOTLOADER_MAGIC_SIGNATURE_START and comparing them to the value \c BOOTLOADER_MAGIC_SIGNATURE. The class of bootloader
* can be determined by reading the FLASH memory bytes located at address \c BOOTLOADER_CLASS_SIGNATURE_START and comparing them
* to the value \c BOOTLOADER_MASS_STORAGE_SIGNATURE. The start address of the bootloader can be retrieved by reading the bytes
* of FLASH memory starting from address \c BOOTLOADER_ADDRESS_START.
*
* \subsection SSec_Aux_Space Auxiliary Bootloader Section
* To make the bootloader function on smaller devices (those with a physical bootloader section of smaller than 6KB) a second
* section of memory (called the <i>Auxiliary Bootloader Section</i>) is added before the start of the real bootloader section,
* and is filled with a portion of the bootloader code. This allows smaller devices to run the bootloader, at the cost of an
* additional portion of the device's FLASH (the bootloader section size in KB subtracted from the 6KB total size). A small
* trampoline is inserted at the start of the auxiliary section so that the bootloader will run normally in the case of a blank
* application section.
*
* On devices supporting a 8KB bootloader section size, the AUX section is not created in the final binary.
*
* \subsection SSec_API_MemLayout Device Memory Map
* The following illustration indicates the final memory map of the device when loaded with the bootloader.

*
* \section Sec_KnownIssues Known Issues:
*
* \par In some cases, the application is not fully loaded into the device.
* Write-caching on some operating systems may interfere with the normal
* operation of the bootloader. Write caching should be disabled when using the
* Mass Storage bootloader, or the file system synced via an appropriate command
* (such as the OS's normal disk ejection command) before disconnecting the device.
*
* \par After loading an application, it is not run automatically on startup.
* Some USB AVR boards ship with the BOOTRST fuse set, causing the bootloader
* to run automatically when the device is reset. In most cases, the BOOTRST
* fuse should be disabled and the HWBE fuse used instead to run the bootloader
* when needed.
