Various kernel options are known to interfere with flashrom's attempts to access physical memory through /dev/mem. Some (like CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM) are important security measures that cannot be disabled without recompiling the kernel, and are likely to be used more widely over time.
However, complete access to physical memory is unnecessary if the SPI interface can be accessed by mapping a BAR resource file in the PCI device directory in sysfs.
I added a function pcidev_mapbar() that maps a PCI BAR resource through sysfs if possible; otherwise it falls back to the existing pcidev_mapbar()/rphysmap() method.
I modified several programmers to call pcidev_mapbar(). I also removed the rget_io_perms() call, since obtaining IO privileges is unnecessary when using the sysfs access method (the whole point of the patch!). Instead, rget_io_perms() is now called automatically by pcidev_init() only when using some access method other than sysfs.
Several programmers (like satamv) require access to other memory or IO regions as well as PCI BARs. There's little point in converting these, since the programmer still requires IO privileges. And the it8212 programmer tries to enable the ROM BAR before accessing it; I have no idea if sysfs can handle dynamically-appearing BARs, so I left that programmer alone.
Running flashrom on a Linux system with CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM=y, I can now successfully program the SPI flash on an Intel 10G NIC using the nicintel_spi programmer. I have not tested any other programmers or system configurations.
