Hi, There is this problematic Dell Optiplex 5055 Ryzen BIOS 1.5 version issue <https://www.dell.com/community/en/conversations/optiplex-desktops/optiplex-…> . When I tied to upgrade the bios with flashrom I get the following error: Found chipset "AMD FP4". Enabling flash write... Disabling write protection of flash addresses from 0xff122000 to 0xff162fff failed. Disabling read protection of flash addresses from 0xff130000 to 0xff18dbff failed. FCH device found but SMBus revision 0x61 does not match known values. Please report this to flashrom(a)flashrom.org and include this log and the output of lspci -nnvx, thanks!. Attaching Logs. Best Regards Ekart, Laszlo

Flashrom reads fail with Dediprog due to I/O pins
by Vincent Fazio Oct. 3, 2025

Oct. 3, 2025

We recently ran into an issue reading data from some chips via Dediprog (https://ticket.coreboot.org/issues/609) It appears to be related to maybe not taking some I/O pins into account: https://github.com/flashrom/flashrom/blob/05976c7e93ea64031f6bb3b1eee812023… We have a diff in the ticket that worked for us on our specific combination of dediprog + firmware + flashchips but were hesitant to submit a patch since the sample size was so low. Does anyone else use a Dediprog to program flash and has capacity to try the changes and see if things break or if their use cases start working where they failed before?
