      Use common jedec functionality where appropriate · 1c296ca8
      Michael Karcher authored
      
      The deleted function in en29f002a.c is reintroduced as
      write_by_byte_jedec in jedec.c as it contains no chip-specific
      instructions. It is not yet used in other chip drivers, as key addresses
      (0x2AAA/0x5555) are often specified with less bits. After crosschecking
      datasheets, most of the fixmes can probably be resolved as indicated in
      them, causing significant code reduction.
      
      The common JEDEC code for bytewise programming does not program 0xFF
      at all. The chips that had a dedicated bytewise flash function which
      has been changed to write_jedec_1 thus changed flashing behaviour
      and the "write" test flag has been removed. This applies to: AMD
      Am29F002BB/Am29F002NBB AMD Am29F002BT/Am29F002NBT (TEST_OK_PREW before)
      AMIC A29002B AMIC A29002T (TEST_OK_PREW before) EON EN29F002(A)(N)B EON
      EN29F002(A)(N)T (TEST_OK_PREW before) Macronix MX29F001B (TEST_OK_PREW
      before) Macronix MX29F001T (TEST_OK_PREW before) Macronix MX29F002B
      Macronix MX29F002T (TEST_OK_PREW before) Macronix MX29LV040
      
      Similar analysis should be performed for the read id stuff.

      Refine support for the JEDEC Software Data Protection · 972cec28
      Michael Karcher authored
      
      This patch removes the extremely dangerous unprotect_jedec function
      which is not used at all within flashrom code, and renames the
      misleadingly named protect_jedec function to start_program_jedec.
      
      Calls to protect_jedec after flashing are removed, because a) on LPC
      chips, the command sent by protoct_jedec is not even in the datasheet
      and b) on parallel chips, the block write command issued before already
      contained the software protection sequence, so software protection is
      definitely enabled.
      
      This patch also removes two clones of protect_jedec
      
      Background: JEDEC Software Data Protection started as an optional
      feature, which was disabled on the first single-voltage-flash chips.
      The software data protection is the need to prefix a write with a magic
      "write enable" command, while without write protection every write
      access into the chip's address space modifies flash content. This magic
      write enable command also tells the flash chip that the programmer
      obviously support sending write-enable commands and turns off the "any
      write modifies flash content" mode. There also exist a two-command (6
      writes) sequence that disables Software Data Protection completey, which
      should only ever be used to prepare updating with a device that can't
      handle software data protection.

      Use helper functions to access flash chips · 61a8bd27
      Carl-Daniel Hailfinger authored
      
      Right now we perform direct pointer manipulation without any abstraction
      to read from and write to memory mapped flash chips. That makes it
      impossible to drive any flasher which does not mmap the whole chip.
      
      Using helper functions readb() and writeb() allows a driver for external
      flash programmers like Paraflasher to replace readb and writeb with
      calls to its own chip access routines.
      
      This patch has the additional advantage of removing lots of unnecessary
      casts to volatile uint8_t * and now-superfluous parentheses which caused
      poor readability.
      
      I used the semantic patcher Coccinelle to create this patch. The
      semantic patch follows:
      @@
      expression a;
      typedef uint8_t;
      volatile uint8_t *b;
      @@
      - *(b) = (a);
      + writeb(a, b);
      @@
      volatile uint8_t *b;
      @@
      - *(b)
      + readb(b)
      @@
      type T;
      T b;
      @@
      (
       readb
      |
       writeb
      )
       (...,
      - (T)
      - (b)
      + b
       )
      
      In contrast to a sed script, the semantic patch performs type checking
      before converting anything.
