About to try flashrom on Asus F1 A55-M LX
by rcain 12 Aug '15

12 Aug '15

Hi, I am about to try updating my FLASH BIOS over the next couple of hours - i wondered how long you guys will be there for right now and whether you might be able to help me out if it goes horribly wrong? I am using Asus F1 A55-M LX motherboard - which i do not see listed in your table of supported/tested devices - would you recommend i give 'flashrom' a go anyway? (note: flashrom seems to recognize my chip set, etc - here is the output of a successful flashrom backup i just made: rcain@rcain-ubuntu:~/Backups/120815_1720_flashrom_backup$ sudo flashrom -p internal -r backup.rom -o backuplog.txt flashrom v0.9.6.1-r1563 on Linux 3.13.0-61-generic (x86_64) flashrom is free software, get the source code at http://www.flashrom.org Calibrating delay loop... OK. Found chipset "AMD Hudson". Enabling flash write... OK. Found Winbond flash chip "W25Q32" (4096 kB, SPI) at physical address 0xffc00000. Reading flash... done. ) Many thanks for any help/advise you can give. Rob Cain Director, SystemCore Ltd tel: 01483 428655 email: rcain(a)systemcore.co.uk skype: rjcain

HP XW9300 mainboard
by Federico Tomasi 12 Aug '15

12 Aug '15

Hi, I already tried some time ago to flash my hp xw9300 mainboard bios but with no luck. Then I realized that I was using Ubuntu on a VirtualBox so it maybe could not access the mainborad chip... I retried in these days using an Ubuntu live-cd, and I also read this old forum thread http://forums.bit-tech.net/showpost.php?s=c0347634d93e911f8254f28ec1a83fc1&… where a guy tells to have succesfully written a Tyan original bios on the HP branded version of the same mainboard (the Tyan K8WE S2895) that is the HP XW9300 mainboard. (I didn't connect pins as he edit it wasn't necessary to do that but to enable the jumper of boot block) It would be really nice for me to be able to write the Tyan version of bios as HP one doesn't support 4GB modules so I have lost almost all my ram. I report here what I got (I saw another guys got almost the same on the same mobo trying to install coreboot): "ubuntu@ubuntu:~/Desktop/flashrom-0.9.8$ sudo flashrom -p internal -w bios_1.06.bin -V flashrom v0.9.8-r1888 on Linux 3.19.0-15-generic (x86_64) flashrom is free software, get the source code at http://www.flashrom.org flashrom was built with libpci 3.2.1, GCC 4.9.2, little endian Command line (5 args): flashrom -p internal -w bios_1.06.bin -V Calibrating delay loop...

I'd argue that there's less of a risk of "pretty explosions" with Gerrit, since developers will be less likely to push with additional local changes accidentally applied. Though I know stefanct often makes small corrections/modifications to patches before submitting them (because our code review process makes even small amounts of back-and-forth comments so cumbersome). At least this way such changes can be tracked trivially on-line by diffing the N and N-1 patch revisions in gerrit. > I assume the switch was done to get some gerrit features (jenkins >> integration) not present in patchwork. >> > The switch was done because patchwork became a dumping ground for > non-actionable diffs. > > The main advantages of gerrit over patchwork (IMHO) are: > 1. you can directly work from the list of open commits (in patch work you > can only reply by hunting down the thread that it archived in your local > mail client. if you weren't subscribed back then, you're out of luck) > 2. through the git push model of contributing you're guaranteed to have > context for the commit. compare "all history that leads to this commit" to > the diffs in patchwork: uh, that might be based on r5200 or maybe r1500 or > is it even manually edited and doesn't apply cleanly to anything? > #2 will also help us deal with the reality of lack of developer time and bit rotting patches. Gerrit makes rebasing stale patchsets reasonably straight-forward and simple. As Patrick says, the current state of many patches on patchwork is non-actionable - Tracking down whatever revision they apply to and dependencies for a patchset makes it very time-consuming and error-prone. To make matters worse, once a developer has applied patches and gotten things in a working state again, properly applying individual fixes to >1 patch in a series is excruciating. That's why we have developers pointing at external git servers with patchsets applied rather than uploading rebased patches to the mailing list. > > That we automatically test-build the commits and thus have some basic > sanity checks is a very useful bonus.

AFAICS at least svn seems to be automatically getting security updates on ra (coreboot server). Patchwork seems to require manual updating similar to what gerrit/jenkins require. If we migrate off patchwork, is there a way to keep/import the old data into some other tool? >> About jenkins: Seems to be a good idea and would help detect patch bitrot. > Agreed, but still doesn't really help lower the maintenance burden. Given that it feels like most of the upstream flashrom effort over the last two years was mostly trying to forward-port patches cleanly and/or make them work again, I think the maintenance burden from a flashrom developer POV would be lowered. Or did you mean the server administration burden? >> About gerrit: Last time I tried gerrit the usability was horrible: >> - needs registration (like a forum) >> - has no usable mail interface (like a forum) > Who says people can't send patches via mail?

In the end, we have to decide whether the tree will be managed directly by humans or indirectly via Gerrit. I doubt we can have both at the same time without pretty explosions. > Registration does kind of suck, but again, many active developers > already have a GitHub account (if not a Google account).

I doubt that anybody on the CB mailing list would want to do that. I do prefer email interfaces, but I have no idea what others think. That said, it seems the switch from patchwork to gerrit for coreboot seems to have been welcomed back then. I assume the switch was done to get some gerrit features (jenkins integration) not present in patchwork. Regards, Carl-Daniel

The auto-tag of every commit sounds like an option I could agree with. It would preserve the convenience of the global strong svn commit ID even for git. However, I don't know if this would be acceptable for Stefan (especially from a merging perspective). Regards, Carl-Daniel

I would like to avoid git at all costs, even if it means I have to host something non-git as main repo myself and pay for the hosting. Cloning git into a local svn on my side is not an option because it combines the worst usability aspects of git hosting (no version numbers) and svn clients (no offline commits). If there really is a large demand for a non-svn hosting, I would be open to using mercurial (as master) because it at least has some sort of usability and can provide (conceptually limited) version numbers. I have worked for a few years with mercurial and the version numbers are extremely helpful even if they are per-branch and only semi-stable. About jenkins: Seems to be a good idea and would help detect patch bitrot. About gerrit: Last time I tried gerrit the usability was horrible: - needs registration (like a forum) - has no usable mail interface (like a forum) - you can't work on drafts for a review unless you keep the web browser window open (like a forum) If we really want to move to gerrit, we should close the mailing list as well and switch to a forum which has roughly the same usability as gerrit. I really mean it. We seriously should consider moving to a forum _if_ developers prefer forum interfaces to mail.

Hi again I have now tryed with frser-duino from "Urja Rannikko". With other chips i have better results (for example with the M25P10, this chips is working now).
