Hi everyone,
sorry for resurrecting this patch from the dead.
Ian: No need to test again, I believe something in your hardware may have been fundamentally broken. I have no idea how to debug it, but failing/aborting is better than hanging, so I think I'll merge this patch.
GatoLoko: This patch will probably change the hang into a really slow abort. Still, aborting is better than hanging.
This definitely works a lot faster than my attempt to adapt the old patch to the new tree. It takes under 5 minutes for a full run with this version while the old one takes over half an hour. I'd say each chip probes for under 2 seconds.
Still, I see three problem:
1.- If you run flashrom without verbose parameters all you get in the terminal is a lot of "SB600: execute_command timeout!", without context, without telling it's probing for chips, but then the log (with -o file) shows the probing before the timeout failing as "Probing for AMIC A25L05PT, 64 kB: SB600: execute_command timeout!".
2.- I got a lot of "FIFO pointer corruption! Pointer is 0, wanted 3 Something else is accessing the flash chip and causes random corruption. Please stop all applications and drivers and IPMI which access the flash chip." but as far as I know there is no other application or driver accessing the chip. May it be attempting to probe the next chip before fully closing/stopping/timeuoting the previous attempt?
3.- My chip isn't detected and I'm unsure whether that's the correct behavior or not (shouldn't the Macronix MX25L4005APC-12G be suported as a MX25L4005(A/C)?)
Attached are two log, one with -VVV and other without.
