Hi Stefan, >> P.S. I notice that in the WIKI page the Winbond W25Q32 is listed as >> 2.7V ~ 3.6V chip, but in my search I found out that this chip has two >> versions now: >> W25Q32BV - 2.7V ~ 3.6V and >> W25Q32DW - 1.7V ~ 1.95V >> I don't think we ever going to see "...DW" chip in PC, but I think it >> is good idea to update Wiki to list the right chip W25Q32BV. > > hm yes, that is indeed a minor problem. please note that the voltages > are not used (yet) to change the actual voltage on programmers that > support this feature.
I thought, it would be simple documentation update, but now I understand it could become a real problem in near future. > > your solution is not convincing though. one problem is, that flashrom > is not only used with PC hardware. another one is that flashrom (and > the wiki) groups chips together that can not be distinguished by any ID > command (yet). it may be possible to distinguished the chips above with > some non-standard and/or extended ID command which has not been > implemented yet - i have not checked that.

Let me try to compile flashrom from source and I think this should be very easy patch for first-timer like me. Let see if I can actually do something useful.... I mean to create actual patch for flashchips.c.
