    _______________________________________________________

Details:

Using linuxgpio and tested on m2560 and m1284 chips:

When a line in the hex file has less than 0x10 data bytes, avrdude does not
write the high byte at the specified memory location as 0xFF. This in turn
results in a verification error.

Attached is a sample hex file that was used to produce this result as well as
logic captures when using avrdude and Atmel Studio 7.

Avrdude results in a verification error while Atmel Studio does not. It
appears that the difference is that Atmel Studio will write 0xFF to the high
byte while avrdude moves on to the next memory location and does not write a
high byte.
