Unable to flash AT25SF641 on PC Engine APU2
by Jon Brabender Jan. 12, 2023

Jan. 12, 2023

Hi, I've got a APU2.e PCB with a AT25SF641 for the serial flash (flash PN based on looking at the PCB). Trying to run flashrom (via a Debian live usb stick...I'm having no issues with APU2 booting accessing serial console) as follows yields a lot of output, but nothing useful...is this expected with a AT25SF641? Other people commenting on the interweb with the APUs seem to be seeing Winbond (and no issues) Found Winbond flash chip "W25Q64.V" (8192 kB, SPI) mapped at physical address 0x00000000ff800000 Any thoughts are greatly appreciated Jon flashrom -w apu2_v4.17.0.2.rom -p internal:boardmismatch=force flashrom v1.2 on Linux 5.10.0-20-amd64 (x86_64) flashrom is free software, get the source code at https://flashrom.org Using clock_gettime for delay loops (clk_id: 1, resolution: 1ns). coreboot table found at 0xcfec5000.

Comet Lake U, "-p internal" not available?
by Rafael Send Jan. 9, 2023

Jan. 9, 2023

Hi, I'm trying to flash laptop that has an i7-10710u on it. From what I've been told, it's not officially supported yet but works if I build from source. I did so, but when I try running it I'm told "-p internal" is not a valid programmer. How can I use that method of programming on the latest master? I've used the internal programmer on previous versions / different boards so I aware of the risks and have methods of recovery, but I'd prefer to start with flashrom for ease of use. Thanks, Rafael

[announce] flashrom point releases v1.2.1, v1.1.1 and v1.0.2
by Nico Huber Jan. 5, 2023

Jan. 5, 2023

Hi folks, I'm happy to announce that we finally got new point releases ready. The most important being v1.2.1 which updates the almost three-year- old v1.2. It's still in use by current OS distributions and some rot has already become visible: It has trouble to identify PCI devices when paired with an up-to-date libpci. Another quite important change is present in all three point releases: For reliable operation on the newer Intel platforms, increased timeouts in the `ich_spi` driver became necessary. Please refer to the full release notes [1-3] for more details. Tarballs and signatures [4] are available as usual on https://download.flashrom.org/releases/ One more, old hint for package maintainers: If you don't use Git and don't override flashrom's version string anyway, avoid the tarballs offered by tools like Cgit or Github. They don't contain any version information. Best regards, Nico [1] https://www.flashrom.org/Flashrom/1.2.1 [2] https://www.flashrom.org/Flashrom/1.1.1 [3] https://www.flashrom.org/Flashrom/1.0.2 [4] Signed with key 2853079C9C66AB7E82C64966A5C163B7E557CAEB
