Programmer specific functions are of absolutely no interest to any file
except those dealing with programmer specific actions (special SPI
commands and the generic core).

The new header structure is as follows (and yes, improvements are
possible):
flashchips.h  flash chip IDs
chipdrivers.h  chip-specific read/write/... functions
flash.h  common header for all stuff that doesn't fit elsewhere
hwaccess.h hardware access functions
programmer.h  programmer specific functions
coreboot_tables.h  header from coreboot, internal programmer only
spi.h SPI command definitions

This led to wildly differing syntax for programmer parameters, and
it also voids pretty much every assumption you could make about
programmer_param. The latter is a problem for libflashrom.

Use extract_param everywhere, clean up related code and make it more
foolproof. Add two instances of exit(1) where we have no option to
return an error. Remove six instances of exit(1) where returning an
error was possible.

WARNING: This changes programmer parameter syntax for a few programmers!

- x86/x86_64 (little endian)
- PowerPC (big endian)
- MIPS (big+little endian)

No changes to programmer specific code. This means any drivers with MMIO
access will _not_ suddenly start working on big endian systems, but with
this patch everything is in place to fix them.

Compilation should work on all architectures listed above for all
drivers except nic3com and nicrealtek which require PCI Port IO which is
x86-only for now.

To compile without nic3com and nicrealtek, run
make distclean
make CONFIG_NIC3COM=no CONFIG_NICREALTEK=no

Thanks to Misha Manulis for testing early versions of this patch on
PowerPC (big endian) with the satasii programmer.
Thanks to Segher Boessenkool for design review and for helping out with
compiler tricks and pointing out that we need eieio on PowerPC.

Thanks to David Daney for compile testing on MIPS (big endian).
Thanks to Uwe Hermann for compile and runtime testing on x86_64.

DO NOT RUN flashrom ON NON-X86 AFTER APPLYING THIS PATCH!
This patch only provides the infrastructure, but does not convert any
drivers, so flashrom will compile, but it won't do the right thing on
non-x86 platforms.

- Force chip read by faking probe success.
- Force chip access even if the chip is bigger than max decode size for
  the flash bus.
- Force erase even if erase is known bad.
- Force write even if write is known bad.
- Force writing even if cbtable tells us that this is the wrong image

This patch cleans up --force usage:
- Remove any suggestions to use --force for probe/read from flashrom
  output.
- Don't talk about "success" or "Found chip" if the chip is forced.
- Add a new internal programmer parameter boardmismatch=force. This
  overrides any mismatch detection from cbtable/image comparisons.
- Add a new internal programmer parameter laptop=force_I_want_a_brick.
- Adjust the documentation for --force.
- Clean up the man page a bit whereever it talks about --force or
  laptops.

Additional changes in this patch:
- Add warnings about laptops to the documentation.
- Abort if a laptop is detected. Can be overridden with the programmer
parameter mentioned above.
- Add "Portable" to the list of DMI strings indicating laptops.
- Check if a chip specified with -c is known to flashrom.
- Programmer parameter reliability and consistency fixes.
- More paranoid self-checks.
- Improve documentation.

If a board is not uniquely identifiable by PCI device/subsystem IDs, a
string can be specified to be looked for (case-sensitive, substring or
anchored) for now in one of the following DMI items in addition to matching
the PCI IDs:
 - System Manufacturer
 - System Product Name
 - System Version
 - Baseboard Manufacturer
 - Baseboard Product Name
 - Baseboard Version

Strings are anchored re-like (^ at the beginning, $ at the end), but
there are no plans to support full regular expressions and matched to any
of the mentioned fields.

The match is only made if DMI info is available and the string matches.
If no DMI info is available and the PCI IDs match, a warning is printed
as the board can not be autodetected.

It's still open to discussion whether we add an DMI override switch to
specify a string that will definitely match, and whether this switch is
only used if no DMI is available or whether it overrides or augments DMI
data.

DMI data is currently read using dmidecode. This tool is available for
all major platforms except MacOS X. I heard that there also is a MacOS X
version of dmidecode, but didn't investigate that.

We could run it after chipset enable, but it definitely has to happen
before board enable because the board enable usually accesses the
SuperI/O. With this patch, it is possible to add a struct superio to the
board enable table for more accurate matching in case subsystem IDs are
ambiguous. This patch focuses on the generic infrastructure aspect and
on support for IT8712F/IT8716F.

Make various pieces of code conditional on support for internal
programming. Code shared between PCI device programmers and onboard
programming is now conditional as well.

It is now possible to build only with dummy support:
make CONFIG_INTERNAL=no CONFIG_NIC3COM=no CONFIG_SATASII=no
CONFIG_DRKAISER=no CONFIG_SERPROG=no CONFIG_FT2232SPI=no

This allows building for a specific use case only, and it also
facilitates porting to a new architecture because it is possible to
focus on highlevel code only.

Note: Either internal or dummy programmer needs to be compiled in due to
the current behaviour of always picking a default programmer if -p is
not specified. Picking an arbitrary external programmer as default  
wouldn't make sense.

Build and runtime tested in all 1024 possible build combinations. The
only failures are by design as mentioned above.

The two existing SiS chipset enables (compared to the 28 in this patch)
were refactored, and one of them was fixed.

A function to match PCI vendor/class combinations was added to generic

Tested on the "Elitegroup K7S5A". Results are somewhat unexpected (some
PCI settings seem to be inaccessible, but it still works).

This is not based on any docs, but rather on detailed analysis

Of course, all of the CONFIG_* symbols can be mixed and matched as

Place a FIXME in the layout.c code because usage is not totally clear

Some MMIO accesses used volatile, others didn't (and risked
non-execution of side effects) and even with volatile, some accesses
looked dubious.

Since the MMIO accessor functions and the onboard flash accessor
functions are functionally identical (but have different signatures),
make the flash accessors wrappers for the MMIO accessors.

For some of the conversions, I used Coccinelle. Semantic patch follows:

Use chipaddr instead of volatile uint8_t * because when we access chips
in external flashers, they are not accessed via pointers at all.

Benefits: This allows us to differentiate between volatile machine
memory accesses and flash chip accesses. It also enforces usage
of chip_{read,write}[bwl] to access flash chips, so nobody will
unintentionally use pointers to access chips anymore. Some unneeded
casts are removed as well. Grepping for chip operations and machine
memory operations doesn't yield any false positives anymore.
