* ichspi: use a variable to distinguish ich generations instead of ↵Stefan Tauner2011-11-061-14/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | spi_programmer->type The type member is enough most of the time to derive the wanted information, but - not always (e.g. ich_set_bbar), - only available after registration, which we want to delay till the end of init, and - we really want to distinguish between chipset version-grained attributes which are not reflected by the registered programmer. Hence this patch introduces a new static variable which is set up early by the init functions and allows us to get rid of all "switch (spi_programmer->type)" in ichspi.c. We reuse the enum introduced for descriptor mode for the type of the new variable. Previously magic numbers were passed by chipset_enable wrappers. Now they use the enumeration items too. To get this working the enum definition had to be moved to programmer.h. Another noteworthy detail: previously we have checked for a valid programmer/ich generation all over the place. I have removed those checks and added one single check in the init method. Calling any function of a programmer without executing the init method first, is undefined behavior.

* ichspi: add ICH/PCH flash descriptor decoding via FDOC/FDODStefan Tauner2011-09-151-0/+260
Based on the work of Matthias 'mazzoo' Wenzel this patch adds pretty printing of those ICH/PCH flash descriptor sections that are cached/mapped by the chipset (and which are therefore reachable via FDOC/FDOD registers). this includes the following: - content section: describes the image and some generic properties (number of sections, offset of sections, PCH/ICH and MCH/PROC strap offsets and lengths) - component section: identify the different SPI flash chips and their capabilities. - region section similarly to a partition table this describes the different regions. the content of FLREG* is derived from this section. - master section defines SPI master (host, ME, GbE) access rights of the individual regions. the content of PR* is derived from this section. this is only a part of the data included in the descriptor. other information can be retrieved from a complete binary dump of the descriptor region only. this patch also adds macros and pretty printing for "Vendor Specific Component Capabilities" registers: there are two of them: lower and upper. they describe the properties of the address space divided by FPBA (which allows to use multiple flash chips or partitions with different properties). the properties of all supported flash chips (together with their RDIDs) are stored in the same format in table in a descriptor section (which is used by the ME apparently). a later patch will use the macros outside of ichspi.c which is the reason why the prettyprinting function and the register bit macros are not defined in ichspi.c but ich_descriptors.h (else they would be moved in the follow-up patch). because this patch relies on (compiler) implementation-specific layouting of bit-fields, it checks for correct layout before taking any action on runtime.
