Hello,
I've checked out master from the flashrom svn repo, compiled, and was
able
to see my chip (MX25L25635E). The id wasn't recognized, but after a
quick
patch to copy a MX25L128... to ..L256.., I got it to successfully read
the
first 16MB of the chip - however, I can't get any further than that, because changing the values in the table to the right values moves me
from
3 byte addressing to 4 byte addressing territory (if I understand this correctly), and it looks like there aren't any patches merged for that
yet.
Is there a patch set actively in the works?
Nope, there isn't, at least nothing that I know about or that will hit vanilla flashrom soon.

Thanks for the quick reply. I did some digging, and found a patch set from January, resurrected and forward ported to the current tip of flashrom on github.com/petermartini/flashrom, and confirmed it worked well enough that it worked on my chipset.
This was Boris' work, and I guess it was incomplete / petered out before being committed; does it ring any bells?
It seems the thread petered out around http://www.flashrom.org/pipermail/flashrom/2015-January/013168.html.
I'm happy to help, if I can, get that patch set merged in if there's work to be done on it so I can upstream my chipset's specs.
Thanks! Peter
