EN29LV800 is not a JEDEC compatible chip, it uses an odd command sequence like the M29F400BT
Are EON incorrect in the datasheet then, or is there a subtle distinction between what flashrom means with JEDEC and what EON mean?
The datasheet says:
• JEDEC Standard program and erase commands • JEDEC standard DATA polling and toggle bits feature
I saw the custom probe functions for EN29F512 and EN29F002A but wasn't clear that would be needed although I did see they match the datasheet probe sequence.
I compared the probes to the datasheets because the code questions how to exit autoselect mode and my reading of it is that it only needs a:
chip_writeb(0xF0, bios + 0x555); // write address can be any value
since the datasheets say "The system must write the reset command to exit the autoselect mode and return to reading array data" and the same for interrupting erase/program modes.
Does it follow that the erase/write operations will also need custom functions if JEDEC isn't really supported?
I guess I need to get up to speed on JEDEC and the rest of flashrom - I only came across flashrom last night in pursuit of some clues for manipulating Phoenix BIOS settings.

JEDEC has a 5555/2AAA/5555 command sequence, where as EON uses a AAA/555/AAA. Our code is byte based.
