Hello all,
Is there a way to read the coreboot version (as a string or as binary
chain) from inside the build coreboot.rom file.
We wish to upgrade the binary in the flash ROM (by a userspace tool
calling 'flashrom') only when necessary.
Reading the flashed version can be made by a 'cat
/sys/class/dmi/id/bios_version'.
What is missing is the version of the "new" binary to compare them.
Kind regards,
Patrick Agrain
