Hello Carldani,
You were right about the flash : this board is equipped with a ST flash
and not with a Spansion...
Now, I check the modifications we made yesterday night in flashrom. With
them, flashrom is now working fine :
I can read, I can write the flash content. Erase not tested.
flashrom indicates that the ST M25P16 has a status 'untested' for
operations PROBE READ ERASE WRITE.
Tests and relevant traces are attached. If you need anything else,
please, let me know.
Best regards, and thx for help.
Stéphan.
PROBE works better with the 2nd fix (ich7 instead of ich_dc)
READ/WRITE looks to work fine
ERASE not tested
Some modifications I added in flashrom code to have this work :
1) ST M25P16 works better with ich7 on EP80579
2) Initialize tmp to avoid garbage in the variable.
