Dear Lane! Thank you very much for your patch. * Lane Brooks <lbrooks@MIT.EDU> [071002 18:20]:
- It seems like there should be a way to revert the msr back after flashing is completed to put the bios back in write protect mode. Is there a cleanup mechanism available? Something like disable_flash...
Unfortunately no. Any patches that generically implement such a mechanism are welcome though!
+#define _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE +#include <sys/types.h> +#include <sys/stat.h> +#include <fcntl.h> +#include <unistd.h>
+ unsigned long addr = 0x1808; + lseek64(fd_msr, (off64_t) addr, SEEK_SET);
Why do you use/need large file support for seeking to an offset of 0x1808 ?
