- Fix build on aarch64 with upstream patch:
  * fix_aarch64.patch
* Thu Feb 20 2020 Martin Hauke <mardnh@gmx.de>
- Update to version 1.2
  - Meson support
  - Layout improvements/fixes and many, many code cleanups.
  - New chips: MX25U25635F, MX25L51245G, GD25Q256D, M95M02-A125,
    N25Q/MT25Q variants, W25Q128JW_DTR, AT25SF321, S25FL512S
  - New programmers: National Instruments USB-845x, Tin Can Tools
    Flyswatter/Flyswatter 2, STLINK V3, more Intel PCHs (Apollo
    Lake, Cannon Lake variants, Ice Lake U)
  - Reduced dependency on libusb0
  - Syntax: Added --flash-name and --flash-size arguments to print
    information about the flash chip
* Sun Jun 23 2019 Martin Hauke <mardnh@gmx.de>
- Update to version 1.1
  New major user-visible features
  * 4-byte address support for many SPI programmers
  * New option to use a reference file for flash contents
    (--flash-contents)
  * Layout support for coreboot's FMAP format (--fmap, --fmap-file)
  * BAUD rate selection for Buspirate SPI
  * Support for the ENE Embedded Debug Interface (EDI), probably
    our first non-jedec SPI target
  * On Intel ME enabled systems, internal flashing is allowed by
    default
  New programmers
  * ENE Embedded Debug Interface EDI
  * Linux' MTD interface
  * Digilent SPI for the iCEblink40 development board

* Sun Mar 31 2019 Martin Hauke <mardnh@gmx.de>
- Update to version 1.0.1
  * linux_spi: Reduce maximum read chunksize
  * Hardcode default spispeed of 2MHz
    Default speed of kernel drivers isn't always sane (any more).
  * Fix dmi_match string for ThinkPad X201
  * verification with sparse layouts
  * Fix erasing of unaligned regions
Version: 1.0-bp150.1.3
* Wed Jan 03 2018 mardnh@gmx.de
- Update to version 1.0
  * Support layouts for read and erase commands
  * New command line switch --noverify-all (-N) allows flashing of
    individual regions without reading the whole flash chip
    (particular useful with locked down Intel ME firmware)
  * New command line switch --ifd to read the layout from an
    Intel Firmware Descriptor on flash
  * We got rid of the delay-loop calibration (if the OS provides an
    accurate timer through clock_gettime())
  * Reading speed of USB programmers should have increased (reading
    bigger chunks at once, we reduce the overhead)
  * Support Intel 100 series PCHs (Sunrise Point, coupled with
    Skylake and Kaby Lake) and C620 series PCHs (Lewisburg paired
    with Workstation/Server versions of the former)
  * New programmers
    + Intel 100 series / C620 series PCHs
    + Intel I210 NICs (EEPROM and SPI)
    + AMD Merlin Falcon (FP4)
