I just stumbled across a strange bug. The USBtinyISP programmer does not work with the most recent version of avrdude

Error while burning bootloader.

I opened my library folder and removed the packages folder. After restarting Arduino IDE I'm now able to communicate with the target. I'm using Arduino IDE 1.8.9 on MacOS.
(Don't worry about the incorrect target error. It's intended)

@facchinm any idea what may be causing this?

Hi @MCUdude ,
version 6.3.0-arduino16 contains this patch (facchinm/avrdude@a45d203) which was also merged in avrdude master (http://svn.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/avrdude/trunk/avrdude/usbtiny.c?r1=1412&r2=1429).
The binaries in the original thread are still there (not for OSX though), could you try testing the arduino14 build? URL is http://downloads.arduino.cc/tools/avrdude-6.3.0-arduino14-i386-apple-darwin11.tar.bz2

Great! I'll test it when I get home from work

It does work with avrdude-6.3.0-arduino14 on macOS!

What was your patch trying to solve? The >64kB issue?

The problem reported was more or less the same you reported (see arduino/Arduino#8198 (comment)) and arised from supporting TPI programming on the attiny. The patch was confirmed to work on Windows so now I'm a bit scared to revert it (and regress the win build).

The ATtiny13 uses the standard ISP interface, not TPI.

I hope we're able to get the USBtinyISP to work again. It's my main (and favorite) programmer

I checked the whole code again and indeed there's a bug I introduced 🙁
Since TPI patchset, pgm->program_enable() can return:

  • 0 in case of success of TPI function
  • > 0 (true) in case of success of normal function

and I didn't notice this asymmetry.
I'm going to push a patch, release arduino17 version of avrdude and report to Joerg to also fix in mainline.
@MCUdude before going live I'll post a compiled package for OSX here, if you could test in your setup I'll merge all the stuff 🙂

@MCUdude great, I'm preparing a full rebuild then for the next megaAVR/AVR release

I added the new avrdude rebuilt for all the platforms to this PR arduino/Arduino#8976 . Would be great if you could test it 😉

Totally forgot about this one! Avrdude 6.3.0-arduino17 does work with USBtinyISP again.
