Sets the quell_progress global variable that can be, and is, consulted by
programmers.
Setting quell_progress to a positive number also switches off progress
bars. It is currently not possible to switch on progress bars again: that
is enabled in main.c once at the start of AVRDUDE.
That code in main should move to avr.c to enable report_update() to consult
quell_progress directly. Will do at another time when touching main.c and
avr.c. smr
The code no longer accepts valid mantissa-only doubles that are integer
rejects, eg, 078 or ULL overflows. These are most likely input errors by
the user: 8 is not an octal digit, they might have typed 17 hex digits,
not 16. It's just too hard to explain that 0xffffFFFFffffFFFFf writes
0x4430000000000000, which is the correct double representation of the
valid 17-digit hex mantissa that strtod() is perfectly happy to accept.
Integers can be hexadecimal, decimal or octal. An optional case-insensitive
suffix specifies their size: HH: 8 bit, H/S: 16 bit, L: 32 bit, LL: 64 bit
An optional U suffix makes a number unsigned. Ordinary 0x hex numbers are
always treated as unsigned. +0x or -0x hex numbers are treated as signed
unless they have a U suffix. Unsigned integers cannot be larger than 2^64-1.
If n is an unsigned integer then -n is also a valid unsigned integer as in C.
Signed integers must fall into the [-2^63, 2^63-1] range or a correspondingly
smaller range when a suffix specifies a smaller type. Out of range signed
numbers trigger a warning.
Ordinary 0x hex numbers with n hex digits (counting leading zeros) use
the smallest size of 1, 2, 4 and 8 bytes that can accommodate any n-digit hex
number. If a suffix specifies a size explicitly the corresponding number of
least significant bytes are written. Otherwise, signed and unsigned integers
alike occupy the smallest of 1, 2, 4, or 8 bytes needed to accommodate them
in their respective representation.
Using strtoll() can only return numbers in the range [-2^63, 2^63-1]. This
means that 0xffffFFFFffffFFFF (2^64-1) will be out of range and is written as
max LL. Actually, every 64-bit number with high-bit set will wrongly be
written as max LL.
This commit uses strtoull() instead to fix this, and checks for unsiged out-
of-range error. strtoull() also has the neat benefit that input with a minus
sign is treated like C unsigned numbers, ie, -u is also a valid unsigned
number if only u is one. In case the input is meant to be treated as signed,
it is therefore still OK to use strtoull() in the first instance only that in
this case a second check against the range of the signed domain is necessary.
The paged read in pickit2.c has two errors:
- It drops load extended address commands unless a paged read happens at a
64k byte boundary; this is invalid when reading files with holes
- It wrongly assumed that flash memory is byte addressed
The fix is to carry out a load extended address command, if needed, at the
beginning of each paged flash read with the correct word address. Although the
pickit2_paged_load() has independent parameters page_size, addr and n_bytes,
AVRDUDE only ever calls paged read/write functions with page_size and n_bytes
both set to mem->page_size and addr aligned with a page boundary. Therefore, it
is sufficient to set the load extended address at the beginning of each page
read.
