* List of supported devices?

A couple, hopefully quick questions. I have downloaded all the source and 
documentation I could find. I found many parts "IDs" in various files. I 
was wondering if there is some more central place to look to see if a given 
part is supported? Or some better way (magic grep pattern?) to collect the 
supported parts "IDs"...


Specifically, I did not find any Intel Sync Strata Flash parts (e.g. 
RC28F256JC3) in the list. From my, admittedly limited understanding, all I 
would have to write is  basic block read/write/erase functions? Is there a 
document on this set of function I missed?

Any comments how much work I'm biting off here?

Thanks in advance for your time,

Clay Douglass

I subscribed and sent this but did not get it back. I assume it arrived 
before the subscription was "active" and was tossed. Apologies if y'all 
received it twice.

If it supports the Common Flash Interface, it's probably supported. I
think the StrataFlash parts you mention _do_ support CFI. If they don't
do CFI, the table in jedec_probe.c is where you want to look. The rest
is obsolescent.
