Re: Questions About Flashrom Of Gsoc

[Anastasia Klimchuk]

Hi Hui,

First of all, I wanted to say, you replied to me only and not to the
mailing list (and I only noticed now). Most likely you clicked the "Reply"
button instead of "Reply All". I am adding the mailing list back, but for
future please keep in mind to Reply All.
The most important reason is that if you send your questions to the mailing
list, then everyone in our community can help you! Which is really good.
You will have various questions, and you never know who is the best person
to answer. So, pay attention that the mailing list is on the To line ;)

Some things I can answer:
> > The platform Gerrit is mentioned in the "Development Guidelines." All I

know about it is that it is a code management tool. Are there any tutorial
videos or articles that I can use to learn more about Gerrit?

Gerrit is also a code review tool. Gerrit has an official website with lots
of presentations, look here
https://www.gerritcodereview.com/presentations.html , hopefully that's
useful!
> > I went to GitHub's official Flashrom mirror.

You can browse all code on GitHub, no problem, and yes it can be a
convenient way to browse. Just keep in mind GitHub is a mirror, so that's
pretty much only for browsing code. When you start with trying to make
changes by yourself, you need to set up flashrom git repository locally.
When you come to that point, open
https://review.coreboot.org/admin/repos/flashrom and choose your desired
method to clone the repository. Supported methods are HTTPS and SSH. The
same method will also be used when you push your changes to Gerrit later.
> > My current devices are a Windows 11 laptop (processor 11370H, Tiger

Lake-H35) and a Mac. Is it possible for me to try out some patches on my
computer? Also, could you provide me with any resources or introductions to
chip packaging (DIP32, PLCC32, DIP8...)?

I am wondering if someone else can take these questions? We need community
help on this :)

Thanks!

Questions About Flashrom Of Gsoc

Hi Hui,
> > My current devices are a Windows 11 laptop (processor 11370H, Tiger Lake-H35) and a Mac. Is it possible for me to try out some patches on my computer? Also, could you provide me with any resources or introductions to chip packaging (DIP32, PLCC32, DIP8...)?

As it´s never a good idea to experiment with the workhorse itself, I would recommend to do tests on extra hardware. (There might be some things you can test with software dummies, someone else must tell you about that). A very cheap programmer often mentioned here is the CH341A Programmer, however there are many other affordable programmers with ftdi chips, the raspberry pi and other manufactures as well (https://www.flashrom.org/Supported_programmers).

About basics of packaging you can find on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_integrated_circuit_packaging_types . Flashrom itself typically does not care about packaging (as you can see in flashchips.c are no packaging info). That´s only important for wiring between programmer hardware and flash chip. If you have a programmer with a DIP-Socket on board, you can use any supported Flash in a DIP package (with <= pins than the socket).
> > and decided to start my job with "Find chips without voltage data." What can I do about it?

I checked the “.voltage” of the chips given in flashchips.c and I couldn´t find any chip without voltage data in flashchips.c So I think it´s obsolete. Could anyone with wr-permission correct this article? (or tell me where I´m wrong… :-) ).
> > Is it necessary for me to install an IRC client on my computer?

I think the webclient works fine so far, however there might be some benefits of having it installed locally.

Hope this helps,

Questions About Flashrom Of Gsoc

Hi Simon,

Thank you for taking the time to respond and provide an answer.

I'm going to get a CH341A Programmer and see if I can run flashrom on it. If there are any operational guidelines for such ? Is there still any available jobs on the website (https://www.flashrom.org/Easyprojects) that I may try to complete?

Questions About Flashrom Of Gsoc

[Anastasia Klimchuk]

> When I browse all the code on GitHub, are there any suggestions?

You can do, for example, like this.
Once you build flashrom, you can run help command

flashrom -h

This is not doing anything with hardware, just showing help information.
Specifically, all command line operations, arguments and what they are
doing.
The code which is an entry point for help command (and for all the other
command line operations) is in cli_classic.c file.
First of all, read help information, see what operations are available.
Then you can start with cli_classic.c , pick some operation and explore the
code which implements it.
> What further preparation need I take if I wish to join Gsoc this year?

I see that the Easy project that you picked might already be done (as Simon
said). You can do one of "Fix scan-build issues". You will learn how to
work with Gerrit, and this is critical since we use Gerrit on flashrom.

Good Luck!

Hi, apologies for a long delay in reply!

"in the tree" means in the git tree. Which means, you create a git
repository locally (flashrom repository) and then run scan-build inside it.
