New Revision: 1666
URL: http://flashrom.org/trac/flashrom/changeset/1666

Log:
Refine granularity handling in preparation of AT45DB series support.

This adds a number of new granularitie and refines the handling of
n-byte granularities by extracting the respective code into a helper
function which reduces the pain of the above significantly.

- * The following write granularities are known:
- * - 1 bit: Each bit can be cleared individually.
- * - 1 byte: A byte can be written once. Further writes to an already written 
byte cause its contents to be
- *   either undefined or to stay unchanged.
- * - 128 bytes: If less than 128 bytes are written, the rest will be erased. 
Each write to a 128-byte region
- *   will trigger an automatic erase before anything is written. Very uncommon 
behaviour.
- * - 256 bytes: If less than 256 bytes are written, the contents of the 
unwritten bytes are undefined.
+ * The following enum defines possible write granularities of flash chips. 
These tend to reflect the properties
+ * of the actual hardware not necesserily the write function(s) defined by the 
respective struct flashchip.
+ * The latter might (and should) be more precisely specified, e.g. they might 
bail out early if their execution
+ * would result in undefined chip contents.
