Uhh thanks but that's kinda missing the point of this - that I don't want binaries from random people on the internet.

I need to know how to extract it from the bios update files, not the bios already on the EEPROM.

I have the IFD and ME from an x220 that I recently flashed with coreboot

or whatever you prefer

how to extract it from the .FL1 and .FL2 files.

Those might have a length too long to fit a flash so you need to trim

those down before using ifdtool on those (If they contain and ifd of
course)
so depending on size of rom
dd if=FL1(or 2)file of=vendor_bios.rom bs=1 count=xM

and then ifdtool -x vendor_bios.rom

It didn't work :( after that still "no flash descriptor found in this
image"

These are the files and the flash chip on the board is 8M
8523776 '$01CB000.FL1'
8523776 '$01CB000.FL2'
8523776 '$01CB100.FL2'
All of them have different hashes, but I do not know what makes them
different (maybe it is for various board revisions?)

I would also like to know as to how I can re-flash the EC firmware if

that could potentially cause problems, I of course do not know if it
has DMA.

Only existing tool to flash EC is using vendor tool.

EC are only accessed trough port mapped IO (or on newer ones also via
memory mapped IO). EC itself does not have DMA afaik.
