The two existing SiS chipset enables (compared to the 28 in this patch) were refactored, and one of them was fixed. A function to match PCI vendor/class combinations was added to generic code. Tested on the "Elitegroup K7S5A". Results are somewhat unexpected (some PCI settings seem to be inaccessible, but it still works). This is not based on any docs, but rather on detailed analysis of existing opensource code for some of the chipsets. Thanks to for Adrian Glaubitz testing. Corresponding to flashrom svn r759.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- flashrom README ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- flashrom is a utility for detecting, reading, writing, verifying and erasing flash chips. It is often used to flash BIOS/EFI/coreboot/firmware images in-system using a supported mainboard, but it also supports flashing of network cards (NICs), SATA controller cards, and other external devices which can program flash chips. It supports a wide range of DIP32, PLCC32, DIP8, SO8/SOIC8, TSOP32, and TSOP40 chips, which use various protocols such as LPC, FWH, parallel flash, or SPI. Packaging --------- To package flashrom and remove dependencies on subversion, either use make export or make tarball make export will export all flashrom files from the subversion repository at revision BASE into a directory named $EXPORTDIR/flashrom-$VERSION-r$SVNREVISION and will additionally modify the Makefile in that directory to contain the svn revision of the exported tree. make tarball will simply tar up the result of make export and gzip compress it. The snapshot tarballs are the result of make tarball and require no further processing. Build Instructions ------------------ To build flashrom you need to install the following packages or ports: Linux et al: * pciutils / libpci * pciutils-devel / pciutils-dev / libpci-dev * zlib-devel / zlib1g-dev (only needed if libpci is static) On FreeBSD, you need the following ports: * devel/gmake * devel/libpci To compile on Linux, use: make To compile on FreeBSD, use: gmake To compile on Nexenta, use: make To compile on Solaris, use: gmake LDFLAGS="-L$pathtolibpci" CC="gcc -I$pathtopciheaders" CFLAGS=-O2 To compile on DragonFly BSD, use: ln -s /usr/pkg/include/pciutils pci gmake CFLAGS=-I. LDFLAGS="-L/usr/pkg/lib" To compile and run on Darwin/Mac OS X: Install DirectIO from coresystems GmbH. DirectIO is available at http://www.coresystems.de/en/directio. Installation ------------ In order to install flashrom and the manpage into /usr/local, type: make install For installation in a different directory use DESTDIR, e.g. like this: make DESTDIR=/usr install If you have insufficient permissions for the destination directory, use sudo by adding sudo in front of the commands above. Usage / Options --------------- Please see the flashrom(8) manpage. Exit status ----------- Please see the flashrom(8) manpage. coreboot Table and Mainboard Identification -------------------------------------------- Please see the flashrom(8) manpage. ROM Layout Support ------------------ Please see the flashrom(8) manpage. Supported Flash Chips / Chipsets / Mainboards --------------------------------------------- Please check the output of 'flashrom -L' for the list of supported flash chips, chipsets/southbridges, mainboards, and flash programmers.
