It is possible to reduce the Intel ME firmware size to free additional
space for the `bios` region. This is usually refered to as *cleaning the ME* or
*stripping the ME*. See general notes on [me_cleaner].
With the reduced Intel ME firmware the IFD, GbE and ME regions require
less than 128 KiB of space in the ROM.
The modified flash layout needs to be written to IFD!
Have a look at the [ME tutorial] for more information.
Tests on Lenovo X220 showed no issues with a stripped ME firmware.
Reflow the lines?
Done
File Documentation/mainboard/lenovo/stripping_me.md:
Patch Set #2, Line 14: `bios` region.
Should the text be duplicated?
rephrased the text
Add a note, what the difference to the Kconfig integration of me_cleaner is?
I don't know. The default is -S, which says "... in addition to the usual operations ...". So I guess it removes code and sets AltMeDisable without relocating files.
