* Look for ~/.config/avrdude/config configuration file
Traditionally per-user configuration files have been placed
in user's home directory with their names beginnig with a dot
to hide them from some tools like ls(1). However, the number
of programs following this convention have grown over time
to the point where the number of hidden files becomes inconvenient to
some users. For this reason the XDG Base Directory Specification[1]
specifies an alternate place to store configuration files under
~/.config directory.
This patch enables avrdude to look for ~/.config/avrdude/config
configuration file, if ~/.avrduderc doesn't exist.

* Safely concatenate directories and configurations files and minor changes in docs
* Make stats variable available for WIN32 again in main.c
* Utilise full usr_config[] array space
* Check for xdg-style avrdude.rc file first before fallback ~/.avrduderc

* Provide cached byte-wise read/write API
int avr_read_byte_cached(const PROGRAMMER *pgm, const AVRPART *p, const
AVRMEM *mem, unsigned long addr, unsigned char *value);
int avr_write_byte_cached(const PROGRAMMER *pgm, const AVRPART *p, const
AVRMEM *mem, unsigned long addr, unsigned char data);
int avr_flush_cache(const PROGRAMMER *pgm, const AVRPART *p);
int avr_chip_erase_cached(const PROGRAMMER *pgm, const AVRPART *p);
int avr_reset_cache(const PROGRAMMER *pgm, const AVRPART *p);
avr_read_byte_cached() and avr_write_byte_cached() use a cache if paged
routines are available and if the device memory is EEPROM or flash,
otherwise they fall back to pgm->read_byte() and pgm->write_byte(),
respectively. Byte-wise cached read always gets its data from the cache,
possibly after reading a page from the device memory. Byte-wise cached
write with an address in memory range only ever modifies the cache. Any
modifications are written to the device after calling avr_flush_cache() or
when attempting to read or write from a location outside the address range
of the device memory.
avr_flush_cache() synchronises pending writes to EEPROM and flash with the
device. With some programmer and part combinations, flash (and sometimes
EEPROM, too) looks like a NOR memory, ie, one can only write 0 bits, not 1
bits. When this is detected, either page erase is deployed (eg, with parts
that have PDI/UPDI interfaces), or if that is not available, both EEPROM
and flash caches are fully read in, a pgm->chip_erase() command is issued
and both EEPROM and flash are written back to the device. Hence, it can
take minutes to ensure that a single previously cleared bit is set and,
therefore, this routine should be called sparingly.
avr_chip_erase_cached() erases the chip and discards pending writes() to
flash or EEPROM. It presets the flash cache to all 0xff alleviating the
need to read from the device flash. However, if the programmer serves
bootloaders (pgm->prog_modes & PM_SPM) then the flash cache is reset
instead, necessitating flash memory be fetched from the device on first
read; the reason for this is that bootloaders emulate chip erase and they
won't overwrite themselves (some bootloaders, eg, optiboot ignore chip
erase commands altogether) making it truly unknowable what the flash
contents on device is after a chip erase.
For EEPROM avr_chip_erase_cached() concludes that it has been deleted if a
previously cached EEPROM page that contained cleared bits now no longer
has these clear bits on the device. Only with this evidence is the EEPROM
cache preset to all 0xff otherwise the cache discards all pending writes
to EEPROM and is left unchanged otherwise.
Finally, avr_reset_cache() resets the cache without synchronising pending
writes() to the device.
- Add prog_modes to part and programmer definitions; prog_mode is a bitwise
or of programming modes
+ PM_SPM: Bootloaders, self-programming with SPM/NVM Controllers
+ PM_TPI: t4, t5, t9, t10, t20, t40, t102, t104
+ PM_ISP: SPI programming for In-System Programming (typ classic parts)
+ PM_PDI: Program and Debug Interface (xmega parts)
+ PM_UPDI: Unified Program and Debug Interface
+ PM_HVSP: High Voltage Serial Programming (some classic parts)
+ PM_HVPP: High Voltage Parallel Programming (most non-HVSP classic parts)
+ PM_debugWIRE: Simpler alternative to JTAG (a subset of HVPP/HVSP parts)
+ PM_JTAG: some classic parts, some xmega
+ PM_aWire: AVR32 parts
- Add mcuid, a unique id in 0..2039, to part definition for urclock programmer
- Add n_interrupts, the number of interrupts, to part definition
- Add n_page_erase to part definition (# of pages erased during NVM erase)
- Implement a simple calculator in config_gram.y so numeric values can be
expressed as simple expressions such as PM_SPM | PM_UPDI
- Introduce a new method of assigning simple components to the grammar without
touching config_gram.y via an eligible-component list in config.c; numeric
expressions on the rhs of an assignment resolve to integer values
- Update documentation in avrdude.conf.in and avrdude.texi
In order to get meaningful const properties for the PROGRAMMER, AVRPART and
AVRMEM arguments, some code needed to be moved around, otherwise a network of
"tainted" assignments risked rendering nothing const:
- Change void (*enable)(PROGRAMMER *pgm) to void (*enable)(PROGRAMMER *pgm,
const AVRPART *p); this allows changes in the PROGRAMMER structure after
the part is known. For example, use TPI, UPDI, PDI functions in that
programmer appropriate to the part. This used to be done later in the
process, eg, in the initialize() function, which "taints" all other
programmer functions wrt const and sometimes requires other finessing with
flags etc. Much clearer with the modified enable() interface.
- Move TPI initpgm-type code from initialize() to enable() --- note that
initpgm() does not have the info at the time when it is called whether or
not TPI is required
- buspirate.c: move pgm->flag to PDATA(pgm)->flag (so legitimate
modification of the flag does not change PROGRAMMER structure)
- Move AVRPART_INIT_SMC and AVRPART_WRITE bits from the flags field in
AVRPART to jtagmkII.c's private data flags32 fiels as FLAGS32_INIT_SMC and
FLAGS32_WRITE bits
- Move the xbeeResetPin component to private data in stk500.c as this is
needed by xbee when it saddles on the stk500 code (previously, the flags
component of the part was re-dedicated to this)
- Change the way the "chained" private data are used in jtag3.c whilst
keeping the PROGRAMMER structure read-only otherwise
- In stk500v2.c move the STK600 pgm update from stk500v2_initialize() to
stk500v2_enable() so the former keeps the PROGRAMMER structure read-only
(for const assertion).
- In usbasp change the code from changing PROGRAMMER functions late to
dispatching to TPI or regular SPI protocol functions at runtime; reason
being the decision whether to use TPI protocol is done at run-time
depending on the capability of the attached programmer
Also fixes Issue #1071, the treatment of default eecr value.
The new file type I is essentially Intel HEX that, on download, inserts
comments next to data records with the resolved effective address and an
ASCII dump of that same record. On upload the `I` format is permissive
with respect to check sum errors, eg, after manipulated an Intel HEX file
for debugging.
