is writing ready flash this involved?

I was reading up on the flash eeprom and best I can tell for the stm32f chips this is needed.

Has Keil mdk5 not provided a simple function?

    The value of using the small sectors is that they don't eat into the code space budget as much, and erase faster. Think the erase time is mentioned in DS, but depends on age and voltage.

    The use of journalling is strongly recommended to reduce wear. Erase only needs to occur after sector completely consumed, many examples will ping-pong between two sectors to reduce window for data loss.
