Re: [flashrom] FAILED: Soraka DVT1
by David Hendricks 27 Apr '18

27 Apr '18

Hello Hongxia, Were you able to get in touch with someone on the chromiumos team? It appears that you attempted to write the entire firmware ROM, but it failed to write the flash descriptor region. You should target the region(s) you want updated using the -i option, along with --fast-verify, so that flashrom does not attempt to write and verify regions that it might not have access to.

A common error is to leave /HOLD and /WP floating. But they need a defined state. /HOLD has to be pulled up (towards VCC). /WP up too (might as well be down depen- ding on the chip's configuration, but up always works). Nico

WinBond Chip Support
by Jordan Hill 17 Apr '18

17 Apr '18

Hello there, I have a Dell Inspiron 5559 Laptop which contains a Winbond 25Q128FVSQ Chip. I tried running flashrom natively on the laptop and got the usual EC warning so i stopped there. I then desoldered the SMD chip off the motherboard and hooked it up to a RPI and connected it through the SPI protocol. Flashrom then recognized it as a "Generic" flash chip and would not allow the data to be read as it was still unrecognized. Unfortunately I do not have any logs. I believe that this chip is on the list of supported hardware yet it was not recognized in flashrom. I am using the latest version as of April 18th 2018. Any suggestions or help would be appreciated. Thank You

As requested, W25Q256.V works perfectly with Bus Pirate
by Richard Hughes 04 Apr '18

04 Apr '18

Using git master: Using clock_gettime for delay loops (clk_id: 1, resolution: 1ns). Bus Pirate firmware 6.1 and older does not support SPI speeds above 2 MHz. Limiting speed to 2 MHz. It is recommended to upgrade to firmware 6.2 or newer. Found Winbond flash chip "W25Q256.V" (32768 kB, SPI) on buspirate_spi. === This flash part has status UNTESTED for operations: PROBE READ ERASE WRITE The test status of this chip may have been updated in the latest development version of flashrom. If you are running the latest development version, please email a report to flashrom(a)flashrom.org if any of the above operations work correctly for you with this flash chip. Please include the flashrom log file for all operations you tested (see the man page for details), and mention which mainboard or programmer you tested in the subject line. Thanks for your help! Reading old flash chip contents... done. Erasing and writing flash chip... Erase/write done. Verifying flash... VERIFIED. Richard.

Hello Matt, your mail never made it to the list, due to it's excessive size. Please don't send such huge attachments.

Yes, we recently added support for the next bigger version 25Q80EW, and I just pushed a patch for 25Q40EW [1]. With Git, you can fetch / apply it as follows: git fetch https://review.coreboot.org/flashrom refs/changes/62/25462/1 git cherry-pick FETCH_HEAD It's still untested, though.
