[avrdude-dev] stk500v2 progress

[Erik Walthinsen]

After coding up most of the stk500v2 protocol, with help from Martin 
Thomas's readback state machine, I fired up the new code and it 
magically worked pretty much the first time...

The remaining chunks of code are the page read and write functions, 
which I've stubbed for the moment.  Once they're working I'll be able to 
actually program a chip and verify that it works, and I'll be releasing 
a patch.  If all goes well that'll happen tomorrow.

For the moment I've hardcoded the various fields that aren't in 
avrdude.conf, because from what I've seen so far they don't change 
between parts (at least for the few parts I've looked at so far).  As 
soon as the config file patch is available I'll convert over to that, 
and figure out how to least-painfully get the data pulled from Atmel's 
XML files into avrdude.conf.
