- Backwards-compatible with flashrom syntax prior to CB:23021 […] Yeah, I remember that was a concern. Does anybody remember exactly why? IIRC it was considered complicated, yet non-positional files have been supported and standard in Unix commands since before most of us were born so I have a hard time understanding that argument.
Using non-positional files as illustrated in https://flashrom.org/Per_region_file_arguments#Use_cases enables us to treat chip-sized files and region-sized files with the same, intuitive syntax without added mode flags or inconsistent use of -i/-r/-w/-v as in other proposals. -- To view, visit https://review.coreboot.org/c/flashrom/+/30979 To unsubscribe, or for help writing mail filters, visit https://review.coreboot.org/settings Gerrit-Project: flashrom Gerrit-Branch: master Gerrit-Change-Id: Idfba11ec9991aac423b07f68f7dc45e7bebbb06b Gerrit-Change-Number: 30979 Gerrit-PatchSet: 2 Gerrit-Owner: Nico Huber <nico.h@gmx.de> Gerrit-Reviewer: Anastasia Klimchuk <aklm@chromium.org> Gerrit-Reviewer: Angel Pons <th3fanbus@gmail.com> Gerrit-Reviewer: Arthur Heymans <arthur@aheymans.xyz> Gerrit-Reviewer: Carl-Daniel Hailfinger <hailfinger@gmail.com> Gerrit-Reviewer: Daniel Campello <campello@chromium.org> Gerrit-Reviewer: David Hendricks <david.hendricks@gmail.com> Gerrit-Reviewer: Edward O'Callaghan <quasisec@chromium.org> Gerrit-Reviewer: Nico Huber <nico.h@gmx.de> Gerrit-Reviewer: Nikolai Artemiev <nartemiev@google.com> Gerrit-Reviewer: Paul Menzel <paulepanter@mailbox.org> Gerrit-Reviewer: Stefan T <stefan.tauner@gmx.at> Gerrit-Reviewer: build bot (Jenkins) <no-reply@coreboot.org> Gerrit-Attention: Nico Huber <nico.h@gmx.de> Gerrit-Attention: Edward O'Callaghan <quasisec@chromium.org> Gerrit-Attention: Daniel Campello <campello@chromium.org> Gerrit-Attention: Angel Pons <th3fanbus@gmail.com> Gerrit-Attention: Anastasia Klimchuk <aklm@chromium.org> Gerrit-Attention: Nikolai Artemiev <nartemiev@google.com> Gerrit-Comment-Date: Tue, 11 May 2021 17:08:01 +0000 Gerrit-HasComments: Yes Gerrit-Has-Labels: No Comment-In-Reply-To: David Hendricks <david.hendricks@gmail.com> Comment-In-Reply-To: Daniel Campello <campello@chromium.org> Gerrit-MessageType: comment
