However, we will add the new names to the in-program (and hence wiki) database so that this new information becomes public. Thanks for the heads up, Victor. -- Kind regards/Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Stefan Tauner

80/100/132 column line width policy
by Carl-Daniel Hailfinger 15 Dec '18

15 Dec '18

Hi, we're hitting the 80 column limit in our code in ways which actually reduce readability for the code. Examples are various multiline messages and complicated nested code where refactoring to a separate function doesn't make sense. Keeping the old 80 column limit is not really an option anymore. Standard terminal sizes have one of 80, 100 or 132 columns. Given the monitor resolutions many people have nowadays, I think it is safe to say that you can fit two xterms with 100 columns horizonally next to each other. 100 columns should also be sufficient for a msg_p* of roughly 80 columns of text. 132 columns provide more leeway, but IMHO that would be too wide for good readability (and my screen can't fit two xterms side-by-side anymore). Of course some files have sections where any column limit is not acceptable (board lists etc.), but the column limit violations should be limited to the affected file sections, not whole files. Comments? I'd like to get this decided today or tomorrow so we know where we need line breaks in Stefan Tauner's new struct flashchip patch. Regards, Carl-Daniel -- http://www.hailfinger.org/

Spansion S25FL128P......X
by The Raven 24 Apr '17

24 Apr '17

I have a spansion S25FL128P......X chip and can do some tests. The "problem" is that i don't know if its an 0 or an 1. On the chip i see only "FL128PIF" and one line lower i see "00299012 C". Probing works (id1 0x01, id2 0x2018): Calibrating delay loop... OK. serprog: Programmer name is "serprog-duino" Found Spansion flash chip "S25FL128P......0" (16384 kB, SPI) on serprog. Found Spansion flash chip "S25FL128P......1" (16384 kB, SPI) on serprog. Found Spansion flash chip "S25FL128S......0" (16384 kB, SPI) on serprog. Found Spansion flash chip "S25FL128S......1" (16384 kB, SPI) on serprog. Found Spansion flash chip "S25FL129P......0" (16384 kB, SPI) on serprog. Found Spansion flash chip "S25FL129P......1" (16384 kB, SPI) on serprog. Multiple flash chip definitions match the detected chip(s): "S25FL128P......0", "S25FL128P......1", "S25FL128S......0", "S25FL128S......1", "S25FL129P......0", "S25FL129P......1" Please specify which chip definition to use with the -c <chipname> option. BTW: Chip was fund on a Dell-Systemboard.

Do you have an example > for translating status_register_layout structs to a range of bytes > protected, for example 0x000000-0x1fffff? Hi, I have been researching and developing ideas on how to go about block protection. A lot of this is based on Chromium OS' implementation. Here are the two models I have. Before diving into the models themselves, here's idea that both models share. We define a struct range (just like Chromium OS) and then define an array struct range range[32]. We use the BP bitfield as indexes into the array - so a combination of BP4=0, BP3=0, BP2=1, BP1=0, BP0=1 gives a bitfield 0x05 and corresponding range is given by range[0x05]={start, len}. (32 because we have seen a maximum of 5 block protect bits so that is 2^5 = 32 combinations.) The obvious advantage is that status_to_range operations will happen in O(1) time. IMO, the use cases of reading the status register and translating BP bitfields into range are more than vice-versa. So IMHO having an array of ranges indexed by bitfield will certainly be more helpful. You will see that the two approaches differ in the implementation of this idea. 1. Block Protection Table The driving idea behind this model is to have a representation of block protection table in flashrom very similar to what is given in datasheets (just like Chromium OS currently has). But if we are to use array of ranges indexed by bitfield as per above idea, then we need to process this representation first. I came up with the following algorithm for translating the table into the range array - translate_table_to_range(table): proc = [] done = [] for row in table proc.append(row) while proc is not empty tmp = proc.pop(0) for i = 0:5 if tmp.bp[i] is X new = tmp new.bp.replace(i, 0) proc.append(new) new.bp.replace(i, 1) proc.append(new) break if i is 5 done.append(tmp) for row in done index = row.bp4 << 4 | row.bp3 << 3 | row.bp1 << 1 |row.bp0 range[index] = row.range These were the few questions came up immediately - - When do we call such a function in the code? Flashrom will always probe before performing any operation. So once the chip is found, we fetch the BP table from the struct flashchip, call this function, store the array of ranges, and then perform all future operations for that run using the array. - Do we call it for all the chips? IMO, calling this for all chips is a bad idea and the above answer makes this redundant. - How to handle corner cases? This needs to be dealt with still. 2. Array of Range This model is very simple compared to #1 - instead of any such processing, we simply represent the BP table in the form of an array of ranges in the first place. This might make representing the table in flashrom more cumbersome. Attached is a prototype of the two models (both implementations are combined in the same file). I have extensively annotated the code to better convey the models defined above. The output is available here http://paste.flashrom.org/view.php?id=2921. Chromium implementation defines two separate structs from CMP=0 and CMP=1. This case can be handled automatically. IMO, #2 is better than #1 and we should go forward with #2. The additional processing step that needs to be taken in #1 before array of ranges is available is what made me favour #2. I would like to hear your take on all this, particularly use cases (I could come up with only one or two, so please tell me more). There's a lot of comments in the code, so please go through those as well. I am also wondering if it is possible to get the best of both #1 and #2 - is there a way to pre-process the BP Table into the array of ranges representation at the time of compilation itself for all chips? This would eliminate the additional step at runtime, and would make representation in the code easier. Personally, I had a lot of fun implementing #1 mainly because it was a direct materialization of the algorithm and data structures theory I had in my course. I had started out developing my own data structures but then stopped mid-way and realized I should be looking for standard solutions. Then I found sys/queue.h. So, that was a nice learning experience! Looking forward to your comments and feedback. Thanks for your time and patience. Bye, Hatim

ASRock X99 WS-E BIOS backup fail
by Luis Tirado 30 May '16

30 May '16

Hello, Detection of the flash chip on this board succeeds, however reading flash contents to backup file fails as: Reading flash... Transaction error! SSFS: SCIP=0, FDONE=1, FCERR=1, AEL=0 SSFC: SCGO=0, ACS=0, SPOP=0, COP=1, DBC=63, SME=0, SCF=0 Running OPCODE 0x03 failed at address 0x001000 (payload length was 64). Read operation failed! FAILED. Also, superiotool returns: No Super I/O found Perhaps that's the reason. See attached dumps for any additional details.

I agree that a combination of #2 and #3 will offer flexibility and can definitely convey more information. - enum status_register_bits enumerates all possible bits that we have - array of struct status_register_layout as part of struct flashchip - each array represents a status register and each element of array represents the bit (using the enum) - (*read_status)() within struct flashchip taking as argument which status register to read (SR1 or SR2 or SR3) - (*write_status)() within struct flashchip In addition to the above basic elements, we can have - const char *status_register_bit_name[] that has string-ified representation of corresponding bit from enum - array of int status_bit indexed by enum status_register_bits which is populated when corresponding read_status() is called To better convey the model, I have implemented some prototype code. Please have a look at the attached file. And have a look here (http://paste.flashrom.org/view.php?id=2918) for the output. Please ignore the violation of 112-character limit in the attached file. Please let me know your feedback on the model and on the proof-of-concept implementation.

Based on comments in flashchips.c, we have 28 chips with more than one status register out of a total of 293 SPI chips (revisions that share definition are not considered different). Intuitively I think it best to roll out this feature in phases such that until the final phase, current (vanilla) flashrom behaviour exists in parallel. > On Tue, May 24, 2016 at 2:07 AM, Stefan Tauner > <stefan.tauner(a)alumni.tuwien.ac.at > <mailto:stefan.tauner@alumni.tuwien.ac.at>> wrote: > > On Tue, 24 May 2016 12:49:51 +0530 > Hatim Kanchwala <hatim(a)hatimak.me <mailto:hatim@hatimak.me>> wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > The GSoC coding period has started and I have been working on my > first > > sub-project, adding support for 2nd status register.

Ideas for implementing support for 2nd status register
by Hatim Kanchwala 24 May '16

24 May '16

Hi, The GSoC coding period has started and I have been working on my first sub-project, adding support for 2nd status register. Most supported chips that have multiple registers (around 80%) have opcode 0x35 for reading SR2 and, opcode 0x01 for writing SR2. I have developed 3 models and would like to have some feedback on them. 1. Integrate read/write SR2 with existing functions PROPOSAL - - Define a feature bit FEATURE_SR2 - spi_read_status_register(), defined in spi25_statusreg.c, additionally reads second status register depending on FEATURE_SR2 bit for that flash - Change return to uint16_t for spi_read_status_register() - spi_write_status_register_flag(), defined in spi25_statusreg.c, considers higher byte of status to write to SR2, depending on FEATURE_SR2 bit for that flash. MERITS - - Fits in elegantly with existing implementation (IMO). Most code in flashrom stores status reads/writes in int, which can easily accommodate the 16 bits - Very little hassle when editing struct flashchip in flashchips.c DEMERITS - - RDSR will take more time - will read SR2 even if not needed 2. Define separate functions to read/write SR2 PROPOSAL - - Define spi_read_status_register2() to read only SR2 - Define spi_write_status_register2_flag() and spi_write_status_register2() to write to SR2. This will read SR1 first, then (SR2 << 8 | SR1) will be written using WRSR MERITS - - Flexibility (as compared to 1.) DEMERITS - - Need to write more lines (compared to 1.) when dealing with struct flashchip 3. struct status_register_layout The ChromiumOS fork defines a struct status_register_layout in writeprotect.c, which contains only BP and SRP bits' information. PROPOSAL - Do a similar flashrom-wide definition, which contains all status register bits' information. MERITS - - Very detailed representation of information DEMERITS - - Too much work when adding support for new chips - Overhaul of existing infrastructure IMHO, the first model is the best among these 3. I would like to know what you guys think about these, whether you have some new idea. Looking forward to your feedback. Thanks for your time. Bye, Hatim
