SMI interface hides the real SPI bus between SPEAr and
external flash.
Added comments to highlight the SPI operation, to help a
future rework in SPI generic and SPEAr specific drivers.

Add support and documentation for STMicroelectronics
SPEAr Serial Memory Interface (SMI).
Code tested on SPEAr3xx only.

Add comments to assembly flash loader for STM32. Add tiny improvement in
size of the algorithm (40 vs 48 bytes) and tiny speed improvement (~1.5%,
as time is wasted on waiting for end of operation anyway).

for non_cfi cfi chips free() was invoked on rodata.
The mystery is why this bug has survived for so long.

sizeof() is a bit less scary than seing assumption
about size of type, no bug as such.
Use NULL instead of 0 for pointers. More obvious that
it is a pointer from code inspection.

Someone called David Carne popped up on IRC and offered a fix (as he's not
on this list so can;t post here). I am just passing it on. (thanx David)
10:54 < davidc__> Basically; the Numonyx M29W160ET has an incorrect CFI PRI
block; it describes the erase blocks backwards
10:54 < davidc__> the linked patch has a fixup for that part [really trivial]:
The patch improves flash erase for STR9x in case of a full bank erase.
Then the chip erase command is used instead which improves speed significantly.
Also I think it might help if e.g. STR912 enters some state where flash banks are locked, and a chip erase command is the key for unlocking the flash.
This flash driver works on more than just two chips.
(Though it does need work still, e.g. to protect more than 64K.
(On non-'3748-A0 chips where errata allow that.))

For the above targets the exit_point is
optional when used with run_algorithm, so remove it.
This makes updating the algorithm less error prone.

Add "static" qualifier to private functions.
Move duplicated global declarations from "target/avrt.c"
and "nor/avrf.c" to "target/avrt.h".
Remove unused declarations form "nor/avrf.c".

Helper ./src/helper/membuf.c is only used in at91sam3.c
1) Replace membuf with LOG_*
2) The original code in sam3_GetDetails() invalidates
all the buffered output of sam3_GetInfo(). The new
code skips sam3_GetInfo() if its output should not
be printed.

CFI where LOG_ERROR() should be called similarly...

when a write/unlock/erase failed during write_image, then
an error was not propagated back up so e.g. flash write
image from tcl scripts would not throw an exception.
Also flash filling speed was printed even when the
operation failed. Output is now less confusing.

any read/write operation to memory can fail.
block write algorithm error propagation was broken
in that it would continue after an error was reported
writing data to ram or the algorithm failing.

Hello,
"stm32x mass_erase" return ERROR_OK even if something goes wrong.
Here is a summary of changes :
* in stm32x_mass_erase : return ERROR_FLASH_OPERATION_FAILED when error
detected in FLASH_SR register;
* in COMMAND_HANDLER(stm32x_handle_mass_erase_command) : return the
returned value of stm32x_mass_erase().
I don't know if there is reason to always return ERROR_OK ?
