Re: [flashrom] Larger SPI NOR flash parts
by David Hendricks 18 Apr '17

Hi Alex, Getting 4-byte address support in is something I'm interested in as well. In fact I have parts coming in the mail this week :-) On Mon, Apr 17, 2017 at 6:43 PM, Alex Henderson < ahenderson(a)aparnasystems.com> wrote: > Hi there: > > I just started experimenting with flashrom using a Dediprog > SF600 this weekend.

We've got some pending patches for you to try, then... For the chromiumos branch, try this patch series: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/323359/ (Click "Download" and then you can just checkout the full thing). For upstream, try this: https://mail.coreboot.org/pipe rmail/flashrom/2016-April/014579.html The thing to keep in mind is that there are at least three ways in which 4-byte addressing is handled, and the method depends on the chip: - The chip uses the same instructions for 3-byte and 4-byte operations, but has a status/control register bit that extends the address to 4-bytes. ("Mode 1" in my patch) - The chip has separate instructions for operations using 3-byte and 4-byte addresses. ("Mode 2" in my patch) - The chip only supports 4-byte instructions; 3-byte instructions are not even implemented (The style that Tim's patch addressed) For chromiumos: 1. Clone the flashrom repo: https://chromium.googles ource.com/chromiumos/third_party/flashrom/ 2. cd to the newly created directory (e.g. cd flashrom/) 3. Checkout the patch series: a. Go to https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/323359 b. Click "Download" c. Copy these the "Checkout" command and paste it into your terminal.

Larger SPI NOR flash parts
by Alex Henderson 18 Apr '17

18 Apr '17

Hi there: I just started experimenting with flashrom using a Dediprog SF600 this weekend. I noticed that there's no support for any of the 256Mb or 512Mb SPI NOR parts (4 byte addressing an issue?). Is there a newer version than 0.9.9 that I should try? I did find that the Google fork for chromeOS has a number of these parts (W25Q256, N25Q256, SST_25F256). I would be happy to try an unreleased version & report results. I can also test with an FTDI232 based programmer. The boards I can test with currently have various versions of 25q512, 25q256, 25q128 and 25q32. Functionality with the smaller parts looks good. Alex
