[flashrom] [PATCH] Add new programmer for EEPROMs attached to Intel 82580 NICs.

Tue Jun 17 01:24:02 CEST 2014


This patch lets you read and write the EEPROM on 82580-based gigabit NIC
cards. So far it has been tested on copper NICs only, but other variants
employing this controller should work too.
It is a nice substitution for the official eeupdate tool.

Speed is quite decent:

root at qt5022:~# time ./flashrom -p nicintel_eeprom:pci=03:00.0 -E
flashrom v0.9.7-r1622 on Linux 3.11.0-qtec-standard (x86_64)
flashrom is free software, get the source code at http://www.flashrom.org

Calibrating delay loop... OK.
Found Programmer flash chip "Opaque flash chip" (32 kB, Programmer-specific) on nicintel_eeprom.
Erasing and writing flash chip... Erase/write done.
