I'm glad I can discuss with you about the name of these winbond flashes,
you can help with an advice. In linux we name this flash "w25q128jwm",
but maybe we should change it.

How did you arrive at "jwm" suffix ? Per both [1] and [2] "11.1 Valid Part Numbers and Top Side Marking" there is no "M" PACKAGE TYPE, so that seems wrong.

Winbond names this flash "W25Q128JW_DTR", you can find the name on the
top right of each page from [1].

Per 8.1 the IDs are the same for both _DTR [1] and non-DTR [2] variants.

What I propose:
1/ according to [1] W25Q128JW_IM/JM is W25Q128JW_DTR, let's use "-dtr"
    for the M flavor.
2/ according to [2] W25Q128JW has two flavors: W25Q128JW-IQ/JQ and
    W25Q128JW-IM/JM*. Since W25Q128JW_IM/JM is called W25Q128JW_DTR, let's
    use just "W25Q128JW" for W25Q128JW-IQ/JQ, as winbond uses too.

1/ That looks wrong to me. The W25Q128JW and W25Q128JW_DTR are two different products of Winbond, see "Features" column in:

https://www.winbond.com/hq/product/code-storage-flash-memory/serial-nor-flash/

Density -> 128Mb

W25Q128JW
1.7V - 1.95V
133MHz
SPI 4 I/O Fixed <------

W25Q128JW_DTR
1.7V - 1.95V
133MHz
SPI / QPI / DTR <------

Then, compare the datasheets [1] and [2], notice how the _DTR variant supports more functionality compared to the non-DTR variant:

8.1.4 Instruction Set Table 3 (QPI Instructions)
8.1.5 Instruction Set Table 4 (DTR with SPI Instructions)
8.1.6 Instruction Set Table 5 (DTR with QPI Instructions)

So my counter-proposal would be to call it just "w25q128jw" , that's the lowest common denominator of the DTR and non-DTR variant. And then, use SFDP to determine whether the QPI/DTR extras are supported by the flash (and thus whether it is the DTR variant or not).

The only downside is, I only have the non-DTR variant, so I cannot dump the SFDP tables of the DTR variant and check whether it differs from the non-DTR variant. I would expect it does.

2/ That looks wrong to me too. Look at [1] for the meaning of -xM/-xQ suffix of the flash, it has nothing to do with the DTR support. It just says what is the QE bit setting in SR2:

11. ORDERING INFORMATION
Q ... with QE = 1 (fixed) in Status register-2.
N ... with QE = 1 (fixed) in Status register-2 & DRV=75%. Backward compatible to FW family. M ... with QE = 0 (programmable) in Status register-2. New device ID is used to identify FW family

Looking at [3], I see that W25Q128JV and W25Q128FV use the same flash ID,
I wonder what's the difference between them. I made a proposal in linux on
how to handle flash collisions, a v5 will follow.

https://www.winbond.com/hq/product/code-storage-flash-memory/serial-nor-flash/

Density -> 128Mb

W25Q128FV
2.7V - 3.6V
104MHz <-----------
SPI / QPI <--------

W25Q128JV
2.7V - 3.6V
133MHz <-----------
SPI 4 I/O Fixed <--

Unlike the -JV, the -FV has
Instruction Set Table 3 (QPI Instructions)

See my suggestion above, use the lowest common denominator flash (in this case JV) as a base and then use SFDP to determine whether extra features are available. Would that work ?

Cheers,
