See http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/spi/spidev for an introduction.

Usage is as follows:

  flashrom -p linux_spi:dev=/dev/spidevX.Y

where X is the bus number, and Y device. It accepts an optional parameter
'speed' which allows to set the SPI clock speed in kHz.

Tested on an Atmel AVR32AP7000 board (NGW100 Network Gateway Kit), see
below, which was used to program a ThinkPad X60, but it should work on every
other Linux system, too.

The file flashrom.c is part of libflashrom and should thus not contain a
main() function, that would break compilation of all frontends using
libflashrom. Also, cli_classic.c is the right place anyway, as it's the
main() of the CLI tool.

Rename the simple wrapper cli_classic() in cli_classic.c to main(), as
it's not really needed.

This patch attempts to resolve some programmer shutdown ordering issues
by having the programmer init functions register shutdown callbacks explicitly
wherever it makes most sense. Before, assumptions were made that could lead to
the internal programmer's state changing before the external programmer could be
shut down properly. Now, each programmer cleans up after itself and (hopefully)
performs each operation in the correct order.

As a side-effect, this patch gives us a better usage model for reverse
operations such as rpci_* and rmmio_*. In the long-run, this should make
reversing the initialization process easier to understand, less tedious, and
less error-prone.

In short, this patch does the following:
- Registers a shutdown callback during initialization for each programmer.
- Kills the .shutdown function pointer from programmer_entry struct. Also,
  make most shutdown functions static.
- Adds a few minor clean-ups and corrections (e.g. missing physunmap() calls).

Remove the array spi_programmer, replace it by dynamic registration
instead. Also initially start with no busses supported, and switch to
the default non-SPI only for the internal programmer.

Also this patch changes the initialization for the buses_supported variable
from "everything-except-SPI" to "nothing". All programmers have to set the
bus type on their own, and this enables register_spi_programmer to just add
the SPI both for on-board SPI interfaces (where the internal programmer
already detected the other bus types), as well as for external programmers
(where we have the default "none").

Flashrom currently only supports exactly one Super I/O or Embedded
Controller, and this means quite a few notebooks and a small subset of
desktop/server boards cannot be handled reliably and easily.
Allow detection and initialization of up to 3 Super I/O and/or EC chips.

WARNING! If a Super I/O or EC responds on multiple ports (0x2e and
0x4e), the code will do the wrong thing (namely, initialize the hardware
twice). I have no idea if we should handle such situations, and whether
we should ignore the second chip with identical ID or not. Initializing
the hardware twice for the IT87* family is _not_ a problem, but I don't
know how well IT85* can handle it (and whether IT85* would listen at
more than one port anyway).

The project is in the the process of designing and making a complete,
open source, graphics card. More info at http://wiki.opengraphics.org

.

The first development card is a PCI add in card containing a couple of
FPGAs and a couple of serial flash chips (amongst other things). The
FPGAs are called XP10 and S3 (their part numbers). The XP10 contains its
own flash and does not need to be programmed by flashrom - it ensures
that the device can enumerate on the PCI bus without needing further
configuration.

The larger FPGA is the S3. This is configured from a large SPI flash
(2 MBytes). The second SPI flash is used to store the VGA BIOS. It is
smaller (128 KBytes). This patch adds support for programming either of
the two SPI flash chips.

The programmer device takes one configuration option which selects which
of the two flash chips is accessed. This must be set to either "cprom"
or "bprom". (The project refers to the two chips as "cprom" / "bprom",
"s3" and "bios" are more readable alternatives).

Add support for SST SST25VF010 (REMS). Mark SST SST25VF016B as tested
for write.

Verify_range() and check_erased_range() check each page separately.
While that may have seemed like a good idea back when the code was
introduced, it has no benefits for any of the chips where we support
write because all of them handle cross-page reads nicely.
The only class of chips where this change could be a problem is chips
with non power of two sector sizes which have gaps in the address space.
We simply require their read functions to provide gap-free results
and leave it at that.
