However, I wonder if it would be possible to simply issue *both* reset commands - if the flash safely ignores the second (unknown) command, this should be fine, but it is relying on undocumented behaviour.
Good idea. Do you (or somebody else) have HW available to test such a change?
I think I can run tests on a small set (~5-10 different AMD-commandset and 2 intel-commandset, all 16 bit) flashs, but that still leaves the (small) possibility that there are flash roms that behave different.
Right. But it will be an improvement to the current implementation, where a random command is written as RESET command. And also an improvement to the fixed AMD/Intel RESET command. So I vote for trying this solution. I'll test on a few of mine platforms too.
Michael, could please you provide a patch?
Thanks.
Best regards, Stefan
