Hi Chanan, On 09.11.2014 12:27, Peri, Chanan wrote: > Do you know what does this "core" of flashrom include in terms of dediprog API for more specific operations (sector erase, read\write byte\word)? Right now we use a common (to all programmers and all flash chips) abstraction in flashrom which allows you to read/write/erase down to arbitrary small sizes, but internally larger operations (usually sector-based) happen. Think of it like the 512 Byte sector emulation of 4 kB hard drives. This is the abstraction we plan to make publicly available as part of libflashrom. There is also an internal common command submission engine which can send arbitrary raw commands to a flash chip, one engine per flash bus (SPI, FWH/LPC/Parallel). This engine is also common to all programmers of the same flash bus type. > Would it be reasonably possible for me (using the source code of flashrom) to add what I need, even if it's specific to dediprog or to some specific flash type? I think it should be reasonably easy to do this generically (see spi25.c for code which does SPI command submission), and there is no reason to make this dediprog specific. The suggested course of action also depends on whether you want a simple "read some bytes, write some bytes, erase manually/automatically" interface, or whether you want explicit SPI command submission and want to handle all the nasty details (verifying write/erase, handling programmer errors) yourself. > Chanan.

Hello Evgeniy, thanks for your report! I have added your board to our list of supported hardware and will commit that later together with other small changes.

Hello, currently there exist already some patches that allow to read and write single sectors with some preparation and the user interface is probably not what you want (I am talking about layout files that allow to define and operate on regions of flash space). The midterm plan is to make the core of flashrom more library-like, which would ease the creation of a special purpose tool like the one you probably require. Note that midterm in flashrom terms can mean some years since developer time has been rather scarce lately... All of that is pretty much programmer-agnostic because most of the time we specify exactly what is sent to the SPI (or other) bus. -- Kind regards/Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Stefan Tauner

flashrom support for read\write word\byte actions

Hi, >From what I see, flashrom only support full erase\read\write actions for the entire flash chip. Is there any support for more specific actions - like erase sector? Read\write word\byte? If not, is there any plan to support such a thing. I'm asking specifically about the DediProg programmer, but I'll be interested to know if this can be done with other programmers.

Write protection problem on PEGATRON IPIEL-LA3 motherboard of HP Pro 3010
by Smoluszek 08 Nov '14

Hello, I'm trying to flash BIOS of motherboard PEGATRON IPIEL-LA3 - http://goo.gl/xh4qVa Done that successfully before, but I must have uploaded a write protected bios last time. Output of flashrom -p internal -VVV -c W25X80 can be found here: http://paste.flashrom.org/view.php?id=2686 I've also tried flashing with Raspberyy PI via ROM_RECOVERY header on the motherboard, but managed only to detect and read, but each read gave somewhat different file. Any hints how can I override BIOS_CNTL? Thanks in advance! Smoluch
