Add timeout check to SPI bitbang bus request
by Carl-Daniel Hailfinger 29 Apr '14

29 Apr '14

Hi Iain, your Intel 82540EM which hangs on a flashrom run should spew "Timeout!" messages with this patch. It would be nice if you could tell us how long it waits for each chip probe so I can adjust the timeout value. Please note that this patch will _not_ fix the underlying issue, but I believe that an endless loop on possibly broken hardware is worse than aborting.

Flashrom stuck using 100% cpu while probing for a chip
by GatoLoko 28 Apr '14

28 Apr '14

I've tried to run flashrom -V to see if it could identify the chip on my new board (AsRock M3A-GLAN), and it got stuck while probing for the first chip. I've tried commenting out that specific chip (AMIC A25L05PT) and then it gets stuck on the next one. Then commented out all AMIC chips, and it got stuck on the next one (the first ATMEL on the list) I've tried with an older flashrom (0.9.2-r1141). It skipped some AMD chips, then got stuck on AMIC again. Talked with "tlt" and "stefanct" on irc and they asked for a strace and a gdb backtrace. Strace produced no results. Gdb log is attached. "stefanct" tried and reproduced it on a machine with nicintel_spi, but warned it was with an unsupported nic: http://paste.flashrom.org/view.php?id=738 -- GatoLoko

Large FWH support
by Kyösti Mälkki 14 Sep '13

14 Sep '13

Hi I came across two problems using 2 MiB FWH flash on two different boards with old ICH4 and ICH6 chipsets: First, ICH3/4/5 do not implement fwh_idsel= parameter. If vendor bios had the default map of 1 MiB, it did not even detect 2 MiB flash chips. For this I have patches prepared already. Before: (idsel_failure.txt) Probing for SST SST49LF008C, 1024 kB: probe_82802ab: id1 0xbf, id2 0x5c Probing for SST SST49LF016C, 2048 kB: probe_82802ab: id1 0xff, id2 0xff, id1 parity violation, id1 is normal flash content, id2 is normal flash content After: (idsel_ok.txt) Probing for SST SST49LF008C, 1024 kB: probe_82802ab: id1 0xbf, id2 0x5c Probing for SST SST49LF016C, 2048 kB: probe_82802ab: id1 0xbf, id2 0x5c Found SST flash chip "SST49LF016C" (2048 kB, FWH) at physical address 0xffe00000. Second, a board with ICH6 had all except one 512 kiB range of flash disabled by vendor bios and it would not detect 1MiB and 2MiB flash chips. NOTE: the board actually had 512kiB flash for these logs, but you can see where ther problem is. Before: (decode-disabled.txt) 0xfff80000/0xffb80000 FWH decode enabled 0xfff00000/0xffb00000 FWH decode disabled 0xffe80000/0xffa80000 FWH decode disabled 0xffe00000/0xffa00000 FWH decode disabled ... Maximum FWH chip size: 0x80000 bytes ... Probing for SST SST49LF008C, 1024 kB: Chip size 1024 kB is bigger than supported size 512 kB of chipset/board/programmer for FWH interface, probe/read/erase/write may fail. probe_82802ab: id1 0xff, id2 0xff, id1 parity violation, id1 is normal flash content, id2 is normal flash content I used the following as a work-around for ICH6, but this should be derived from fwh_idsel= parameter: $ setpci -s 0:1f.0 0xd8.W=0xf0c0 After: (decode-enabled.txt) 0xfff80000/0xffb80000 FWH decode enabled 0xfff00000/0xffb00000 FWH decode enabled 0xffe80000/0xffa80000 FWH decode enabled 0xffe00000/0xffa00000 FWH decode enabled Maximum FWH chip size: 0x200000 bytes Regards, Kyösti Mälkki

[PATCH] Add git support to the Makefile

flashrom relies on svn to export tarballs and only prints the last svn revision in the version message even if flashrom is in a git tree. Print extended version information (version, svn revision, git hash, repository URL). Allow exporting from git trees. This should make git users first-class citizens like svn users.

Re: [flashrom] [coreboot] Dualbios on GA-MA770-UD3

Hi Vadim, thanks for your mail. I have added the flashrom mailing list in CC: because we should develop a generic way to handle DualBIOS and similar techniques.

It will help us make a flashrom design decision that works for all boards with multiple flash chips. By the way, some of us have good contacts at ITE, so we can ask ITE for details about the undocumented registers. Regards, Carl-Daniel -- http://www.hailfinger.org/

[RFC] Layout handling...
by Carl-Daniel Hailfinger 12 Jul '13

12 Jul '13

Hi, before we change flashrom to work with current layout requirements, we should summarize the features we need/want, and then decide how to handle the individual layout regions internally. Terms: "write strategy" describes a combination of erase+write commands with a given block size, touching some blocks. "read protected" describes a region which can not be read. "write protected" describes a region which can not be written. "write once" describes a region which can be written exactly once in the chip lifetime. If you add a feature to the list, please give it a nickname so we know which feature people are referring to. Some of the features below might not be desirable, but I want to list them anyway so we can explicitly declare them as unsupported if needed. fullwrite-unrestricted: Write a chip-sized image, no special read/write restrictions of the chip, no layout file needs to be specified. Default write case right now. fullwrite-noread: Write a chip-sized image, reading anything from the chip is not possible. Many DVD writers fall in that category. No verification, violates our reliability guarantees. fullwrite-postread: Write a chip-sized image, reading anything from the chip is only possible after write. Chips which are read-locked until a full erase/write fall in that category. Do those exist as standalone flash chips or only integrated into processors? fullwrite-partialread: Write a chip-sized image, reading is only possible in some chip regions. Only partial verification, violates our reliability guarantees. fullwrite-partialwrite: Write a chip-sized image, but writing is only possible in some regions. This is obviously a conflict unless the image has the same contents as the chip in the write-protected regions and there is a possible write strategy for the whole image which does not touch the write-protected regions. Should flashrom always refuse this scenario, or only refuse it in case of conflicts? partialwrite-unrestricted: Write only parts of an image, the rest of the chip contents is kept, no special read/write restrictions. partialwrite-partialread: Write only parts of an image, the rest of the chip contents is kept, reading is only possible in some chip regions. If no read-protected regions are written and a suitable write strategy exists, should flashrom warn? If a read-protected region is written, should flashrom warn/refuse due to reliability requirements? partialwrite-partialwrite: Write only parts of an image, the rest of the chip contents is kept, writing is only possible in some chip regions. If no write-protected regions are written and a suitable write strategy exists, should flashrom warn? flashrom will refuse to write a write-protected region. fullread-unrestricted: Read the full chip, no special read restrictions of the chip. partialread-unrestricted: Read only parts of a chip, no special read restrictions of the chip. partialread-partialread: Read only parts of a chip, some regions are read-protected. flashrom should refuse to read any read-protected regions. partialread-imagefiller: If only parts of a chip are read and the read image has full chip size, what should be used as filler for unread regions? 0x00 or 0xff? partialread-layout-imagesize: If only parts of a chip are read, should the read image still have full chip size with all read regions filled in at the respective locations? partialread-layout-split: If only parts of a chip are read, should it be possible to write each region (or a combination thereof) to a separate image file, and would that mapping be specified in the layout file? partialwrite-layout-split: If only parts of a chip are written, should it be possible to collect each part of the new image from a separate image file, and would that mapping be specified in the layout file? readwrite-protection-time: Which read protection and write protection times exist? Temporary lock until unlock, temporary lock until chip soft reset, temporary lock until chip/programmer hard reset (powerdown or reset line), permanent eternal lock. readwrite-protection-type: Which read protection and write protection types exist? Programmer lock (e.g. Intel SPI), hardware chip lock (WP pin), software chip lock (chip command). readwrite-protection-interaction: How should we express this situation: A region is write-locked with a software chip lock, but to remove that software chip lock, a hardware chip lock has to be disabled first, then the software chip lock can be disabled. partialaccess-crash: Some regions in the chip are really off-limits and will cause an unrecoverable error (system crash) when accessed (read or write). That seems to be the case for some EC/flash interactions. Comments? Any forks of flashrom (e.g. chromium) which need infrastructure features not mentioned above?

Re: [flashrom] USB 3 PCI Card support (request to add device)
by Philipp Post 13 Jun '13

13 Jun '13

I have added some flashrom and linux logs which might be helpfull: The USB 3 PCI card has the following system properties: DRIVER=xhci_hcd PCI_CLASS=C0330 PCI_ID=1033:0194 PCI_SUBSYS_ID=1033:0194 PCI_SLOT_NAME=0000:03:00.0 MODALIAS=pci:v00001033d00000194sv00001033sd00000194bc0Csc03i30 There is also a PCI NIC Intel 82541PI Gigabit Ethernet Controller (8086:107c, BDF 02:0a.0) and a PCI soundcard installed. Tried to read the flash rom out of the 82541PI Intel NIC without problems. /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:02:0a.0 of the Intel NIC also gives access to "rom" which the USB 3 and the soundcard do not. I am not sure if that means that the rom is not accessible at all or if Ubuntu just does not know how. Thanks in advance, brgds Philipp -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Philipp Post [mailto:Post.Philipp@googlemail.com] Gesendet: Donnerstag, 24. Januar 2013 19:23 An: 'flashrom(a)flashrom.org' Betreff: USB 3 PCI Card support (request to add device) Good day, following configuration: - USB 3 PCI (not PCI-Express) card with RENESAS uPD720200A(Revision 4) USB chip and ATMEL AT25F512B (ATMEL 1138, 25F512B, SSH) rom chip in - IBM NetVista 8305 Desktop PC - built year 2003 The issue with the card is that it needs a flash rom update to work with Windows Vista and up, otherwise the device does not work at all in these OS ("device cannot start"). Windows XP with Renesas drivers and Linux Ubuntu 11.3 out of the box works fine. RENESAS has a rom update for the chip and a flash update tool which however does not work with PCI cards, but just chips soldered to mainboards. At least this seems to me the reason why it does not work. Chip is recognized but the RENESAS tool says "Can not load / access firmware". The tool has the option to change the device / vendor id as well via .ini file. The card used is the only PCI USB 3 card on the market and basically works very well when it works - with max PCI speed of course, which means approx. double speed of USB 2. The card exists in hardware version 1 (RENESAS chip uPD720200A) and 2 (RENESAS chip uPD720202). I do just have access to hardware version 1. The name of the manufacturer behind the card is unknown to me, but it could be an ADDONICS product. I do not have a technical drawing of the card and I fear I can not obtain one but I do have the card itself. My question: would it be possible to incorporate this card into flashrom? Would be great if someone could do it as I do not have the necessary skills to do it myself. In case you need further information, please let me know.
