Counter-proposal (conversion from scratch). AFAICS the only differences to your version regarding code flow are in cli_classic.c and flashrom.c.
this is not a full review, i just looked at flashrom.c and cli_classic.c

good catch!

hm.. return value of check_max_decode is ignored here, and checked later in main()... quite odd, but not related to flashctx.

right. my patch has the potential to explode spectacularly due to a normal malloc here and the code expecting 0 to recognize end of lists etc :/

hm... well it breaks the outer loop, but there is no real error handling there. better add an exit(1) here (yes, really :) for now and fix it when the error definitions are merged (which has rather high priority for me). just returning with the current code would postpone the explosion to doit(). NB: i havent checked that too thoroughly.

i like that bit better in my patch, because it groups together what belongs together.

pretty clear indication that this function has issues imho :) those lines are a candidate to form a function flashctx_init or something like that, if we need this more often (i really hope we dont.)

i wondered too why that ->name check was there, any ideas?
