 * A second stage loader must be used when writing to off-chip memory,
 * or when downloading firmare into the bootstrap I2C EEPROM which may
 * be available in some hardware configurations.
 *
 * These Cypress devices are 8-bit 8051 based microcontrollers with
 * special support for USB I/O.  They come in several packages, and
 * some can be set up with external memory when device costs allow.
 * Note that the design was originally by AnchorChips, so you may find
 * references to that vendor (which was later merged into Cypress).

/*
 * $Log: ezusb.c,v $
 * Revision 1.12  2008/10/13 21:25:29  dbrownell
 * Whitespace fixes.
 *
 * Revision 1.11  2008/10/13 21:23:23  dbrownell
 * From Roger Williams <roger@qux.com>:  FX2LP support
 *
 * Revision 1.10  2008/10/13 21:22:10  dbrownell
 * Built against current kernel headers; remove various warnings.
 *
 * Revision 1.9  2005/01/11 03:58:02  dbrownell
 * From Dirk Jagdmann <doj@cubic.org>:  optionally output messages to
 * syslog instead of stderr.
 *
 * Revision 1.8  2005/01/11 03:08:12  dbrownell
 * Patch from Giovanni Mels, so the string is always null terminated
 * rather than only with "verbose >= 3" ... and the length test is
 * changed accordingly.
 *
 * Revision 1.7  2002/04/12 00:25:58  dbrownell
 * - support older AnchorChips style EEPROMs too
 * - minor bugfix for config byte mask in FX
 *
 * Revision 1.6  2002/04/02 08:34:16  dbrownell
 * minor stuff:
 * - don't assume last segment in file is always internal
 * - tweak diagnostics for easier matchup to 8051 linker maps
 * - minor comment/format updates
 *
 * Revision 1.5  2002/02/26 20:06:31  dbrownell
 * - Rewrite for 2nd stage loader support, so this can write
 *   to external RAM and (given the right loader) EEPROM.
 * - Handle usbfs API changes in Linux kernel 2.5.
 * - A "more verbose" option.
 *
 * Revision 1.4  2002/01/17 14:47:44  dbrownell
 * init first line, remove warnings
 *
 * Revision 1.3  2001/12/27 17:59:33  dbrownell
 * merge adjacent hex records, and optionally show writes
 *
 * Revision 1.2  2001/12/14 11:24:04  dbrownell
 * Add sanity check: reject requests to load off-chip memory,
 * The EZ-USB devices just fail silently in these cases.
 *
 * Revision 1.1  2001/06/12 00:00:50  stevewilliams
 *  Added the fxload program.
 *  Rework root makefile and hotplug.spec to install in prefix
 *  location without need of spec file for install.
 *
