 /**
- * Executes a target-specific native code algorithm in the target.
+ * Streams data to a circular buffer on target intended for consumption by code
- * It differs from target_run_algorithm in that the algorithm is asynchronous.
+ * running asynchronously on target.
- * Because of this it requires an compliant algorithm:
+ *
- * see contrib/loaders/flash/stm32f1x.S for example.
+ * This is intended for applications where target-specific native code runs
+ * on the target, receives data from the circular buffer, does something with
+ * it (most likely writing it to a flash memory), and advances the circular
+ * buffer pointer.
+ *
+ * This assumes that the helper algorithm has already been loaded to the target,
+ * but has not been started yet. Given memory and register parameters are passed
+ * to the algorithm.
+ *
+ * The buffer is defined by (buffer_start, buffer_size) arguments and has the
+ * following format:
+ *
+ *     [buffer_start + 0, buffer_start + 4):
+ *         Write Pointer address (aka head). Written and updated by this
+ *         routine when new data is written to the circular buffer.
+ *     [buffer_start + 4, buffer_start + 8):
+ *         Read Pointer address (aka tail). Updated by code running on the
+ *         target after it consumes data.
+ *     [buffer_start + 8, buffer_start + buffer_size):
+ *         Circular buffer contents.
+ *
+ * See contrib/loaders/flash/stm32f1x.S for an example.
