#!/usr/bin/env python3 """pureboot host tool — the smart half of the pureboot protocol (README.md). The device exposes primitives; this tool composes them: image loading (raw binary or Intel HEX), flash programming with read-back verification, erase as writing 0xff, EEPROM programming, fuse and info readout, the hand-over jump, and — on chips without a hardware boot section — the reset-vector surgery that re-homes the application's entry through the trampoline word below the loader. Page 0 and the trampoline are written first, so every interruption point of a flash leaves the chip reset-recoverable into the loader. It also updates the loader itself (--update-loader): pureboot's image is position-independent, so the tool installs the identical binary one 512-byte slot below the resident loader, jumps into that staging copy, lets it rewrite the resident slot, and restores what the staging slot held — resumable at every phase from the flash state plus a host-side state file carrying the saved bytes. Python standard library only; the serial port is driven with termios on POSIX and the Win32 serial API (through ctypes) on Windows, so any tty or COM port works — a USB adapter as well as a simavr pty.
