<div class="md" style="border-bottom-width: 4px; border-bottom-color: #ededed; border-bottom-style: solid; padding-bottom: 1em; position: relative; z-index: 1; color: #3a383f; word-wrap: break-word;">
<p dir="auto" style="color: #3a383f; margin: 0 0 1rem;" align="initial">My statistical view is not about mistake in the code development and intentional calling but as the protection against random call by corruption at runtime. So in the fact I would prefer to have no occurrence of unlock key values in the whole binary image or somehow compute them at the system start and when started then clear these values in global variables that there is minimize chance of incorrect calls. On the other hand this MCU uses ECC for program, data etc... So it should be more safe than random MCU.</p>
<p dir="auto" style="color: #3a383f; margin: 0 0 1rem;" align="initial">There is another argument against unlocking and CLI in <code style="font-size: 90%; color: #18171d; word-wrap: break-word; background-color: #ececef; border-radius: .25rem; margin-top: 0; font-weight: inherit; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space: break-spaces; font-family: "GitLab Mono", "JetBrains Mono", "Menlo", "DejaVu Sans Mono", "Liberation Mono", "Consolas", "Ubuntu Mono", "Courier New", "andale mono", "lucida console", monospace; font-variant-ligatures: none; word-break: keep-all; padding: 0.125rem 0.25rem;">tms570_bsp_pin_set_function</code>, this would significantly extend the time of <code style="font-size: 90%; color: #18171d; word-wrap: break-word; background-color: #ececef; border-radius: .25rem; font-weight: inherit; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space: break-spaces; font-family: "GitLab Mono", "JetBrains Mono", "Menlo", "DejaVu Sans Mono", "Liberation Mono", "Consolas", "Ubuntu Mono", "Courier New", "andale mono", "lucida console", monospace; font-variant-ligatures: none; word-break: keep-all; padding: 0.125rem 0.25rem;">tms570_pin_config_array_apply</code> because unlock and lock sequence would be called many time.</p>
<p dir="auto" style="color: #3a383f; margin: 0;" align="initial">So if you want and need even low-level functions with config enable sequences, I would prefer to provide <code style="font-size: 90%; color: #18171d; word-wrap: break-word; background-color: #ececef; border-radius: .25rem; margin-top: 0; font-weight: inherit; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space: break-spaces; font-family: "GitLab Mono", "JetBrains Mono", "Menlo", "DejaVu Sans Mono", "Liberation Mono", "Consolas", "Ubuntu Mono", "Courier New", "andale mono", "lucida console", monospace; font-variant-ligatures: none; word-break: keep-all; padding: 0.125rem 0.25rem;">tms570_bsp_pin_set_function_raw</code> or with similar names which would be called from <code style="font-size: 90%; color: #18171d; word-wrap: break-word; background-color: #ececef; border-radius: .25rem; font-weight: inherit; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space: break-spaces; font-family: "GitLab Mono", "JetBrains Mono", "Menlo", "DejaVu Sans Mono", "Liberation Mono", "Consolas", "Ubuntu Mono", "Courier New", "andale mono", "lucida console", monospace; font-variant-ligatures: none; word-break: keep-all; padding: 0.125rem 0.25rem;">tms570_pin_config_array_apply</code> and other these functions for multiple pins setup where unlock and probably even CLI should be called for whole for cycle only once.</p>
