STM32F105VC Flash programming problem

Hello. I created MODBUS firmware bootloader and it works good, but when I upload main firmware it does not program flash. Bootloader is compiled with base 0x08000000 and uploaded by JTAG. Then main firmware is compiled with base 0x08003000

(SCB->VTOR=0x08003000). Then I upload main firmware by bootloader, It uploads, starts and work well. But when I try to save application settings into flash main firmware fails. I tried to upload bootloader whith base 0x08003000 by  bootloader whith base 0x08000000. Bootloader whith base 0x08003000 does not write into  the memory.Any ideas? Thanks.PS. Flash programming code

&sharpdefine FLASH_KEY1 0x45670123

&sharpdefine FLASH_KEY2 0xCDEF89AB

unsigned int FlashDevice::timeout = 72000000/20;

FlashResult FlashDevice::UnlockMemory(){

   unsigned int _timeout = timeout;

   while((FLASH->SR & FLASH_SR_BSY) > 0 && --_timeout > 0);

   if(_timeout == 0 ) return Timeout;

   if((FLASH->CR & FLASH_CR_LOCK) > 0){

         FLASH->KEYR = FLASH_KEY1;

         FLASH->KEYR = FLASH_KEY2;

   }   

   while((FLASH->CR & FLASH_CR_LOCK) > 0 && --_timeout > 0);

   if(_timeout == 0 ) return Timeout;

   return Ok;

}

FlashResult FlashDevice::LockMemory(){

   unsigned int _timeout = timeout;   

   if((FLASH->CR & FLASH_CR_LOCK) == 0){

         FLASH->CR |= FLASH_CR_LOCK;

   }

   while((FLASH->SR & FLASH_SR_BSY) > 0 && --_timeout > 0);

   if(_timeout == 0 ) return Timeout;

   return Ok;

}

FlashResult FlashDevice::ErasePage(unsigned int addr){

   if((FLASH->CR & FLASH_CR_LOCK) > 0) return MemoryLocked;

   unsigned int _timeout = timeout;

   while((FLASH->SR & FLASH_SR_BSY) > 0 && --_timeout > 0);

   if(_timeout == 0 ) return Timeout;

   FLASH->CR &= ~FLASH_CR_EOPIE; 

   FLASH->ACR |= FLASH_ACR_LATENCY_2; 

   FLASH->ACR &= ~FLASH_ACR_HLFCYA; 

   FLASH->CR |= FLASH_CR_PER;

   FLASH->CR &= ~FLASH_CR_PG;

   FLASH->AR = FLASH_BASE_ADDR + addr;

   FLASH->CR |= FLASH_CR_STRT;

   _timeout = timeout;

   while((FLASH->SR & FLASH_SR_BSY) > 0 && --_timeout > 0);

  FLASH->CR &= ~FLASH_CR_STRT;

   FLASH->CR &= ~FLASH_CR_PER;

   if(_timeout == 0 ) return Timeout;

   return Ok;

}

&sharpdefine TO_SHORT(value)   (*((unsigned short*)&value))   

&sharpdefine   TO_MEM16_ADDR(value)      ((unsigned short*)value)

FlashResult FlashDevice::ProgrammMemory(unsigned int addr,ByteArray data){

   if((FLASH->CR & FLASH_CR_LOCK) > 0) return MemoryLocked;

   unsigned int _timeout = timeout;   

   while((FLASH->SR & FLASH_SR_BSY) > 0 && --_timeout > 0);

   if(_timeout == 0 ) return Timeout;

   for(int i=0;i<data.size;i+=2){

      FLASH->AR   = FLASH_BASE_ADDR + addr + i;

      FLASH->CR  |=  FLASH_CR_PG;

      *(TO_MEM16_ADDR((FLASH_BASE_ADDR + addr + i))) = TO_SHORT(data.data[i]);

      _timeout = timeout;

      while((FLASH->SR & FLASH_SR_BSY) > 0 && --_timeout > 0);

    FLASH->CR  &=  ~FLASH_CR_PG;

FLASH->AR   = FLASH_BASE_ADDR + addr + i;

No I don't think so.. Review the SPL code. Add some output so you can diagnose your problems.

I load the main firmware by this code:

#define APPLICATION_OFFSET 0x00003000#define APPLICATION_ADDR   (FLASH_BASE_ADDR + APPLICATION_OFFSET)typedef void (*pApplication)(void);inline void loadApplication(){  unsigned int JumpAddr = *(__IO uint32_t*)(APPLICATION_ADDR + 4);  pApplication JumpToApplication = (pApplication)JumpAddr;  __set_MSP(*((__IO uint32_t*) APPLICATION_ADDR));  JumpToApplication();}I added some output. And I found that program fails while attempt to erase page before page programming. This happens after command FLASH->CR |= FLASH_CR_STRT;And its not an infinite cycle. Commands after FLASH->CR |= FLASH_CR_STRT; is not executed. I tried to find problem in hight-priority system interrupts (with priority < 0). But all of them are not executed.

So perhaps Hard Fault, or you're erasing yourself.

Or perhaps erasing the vector table or ticker handler.

The processor will immediately stall during Erase/Write operations, if you attempt to Read/Execute from it. The stall lasts as long as the operation takes. To avoid the stalling the code and interrupts need to run from RAM.
