- Force chip read by faking probe success.
- Force chip access even if the chip is bigger than max decode size for
the flash bus.
- Force erase even if erase is known bad.
- Force write even if write is known bad.
- Force writing even if cbtable tells us that this is the wrong image
for this board.
This patch cleans up --force usage:
- Remove any suggestions to use --force for probe/read from flashrom
output.
- Don't talk about "success" or "Found chip" if the chip is forced.
- Add a new internal programmer parameter boardmismatch=force. This
overrides any mismatch detection from cbtable/image comparisons.
- Add a new internal programmer parameter laptop=force_I_want_a_brick.
- Adjust the documentation for --force.
- Clean up the man page a bit whereever it talks about --force or
laptops.
Additional changes in this patch:
- Add warnings about laptops to the documentation.
- Abort if a laptop is detected. Can be overridden with the programmer
parameter mentioned above.
- Add "Portable" to the list of DMI strings indicating laptops.
- Check if a chip specified with -c is known to flashrom.
- Programmer parameter reliability and consistency fixes.
- More paranoid self-checks.
- Improve documentation.

This also replaces the meaningless numbers in the DMI debug printout
with the parameter names.

Recent gcc/glibc combinations warn about ignoring the fgets() result.
The problem exists on Ubuntu 9.10 with current updates. This "fix" of
the non-problem (as I check ferror() afterwards) should even be a
(negligible) performance optimization.

If a board is not uniquely identifiable by PCI device/subsystem IDs, a
string can be specified to be looked for (case-sensitive, substring or
anchored) for now in one of the following DMI items in addition to matching
the PCI IDs:
- System Manufacturer
- System Product Name
- System Version
- Baseboard Manufacturer
- Baseboard Product Name
- Baseboard Version
Strings are anchored re-like (^ at the beginning, $ at the end), but
there are no plans to support full regular expressions and matched to any
of the mentioned fields.
The match is only made if DMI info is available and the string matches.
If no DMI info is available and the PCI IDs match, a warning is printed
as the board can not be autodetected.
It's still open to discussion whether we add an DMI override switch to
specify a string that will definitely match, and whether this switch is
only used if no DMI is available or whether it overrides or augments DMI
data.
DMI data is currently read using dmidecode. This tool is available for
all major platforms except MacOS X. I heard that there also is a MacOS X
version of dmidecode, but didn't investigate that.
