Yes, I agree. We read the whole flash first to be able to diagnose problems and recover from failures. Naturally this actually makes flashrom fail if it can't read anything. For now there is a read_all_first variable in doit() in flashrom.c that allows to turn this off manually. You are also absolutely right about the write-only check for layout files in cli_classic.c. That check was introduced way after the layout patches were produced. I'll change that in my branch somewhere, thanks. -- Kind regards/Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Stefan Tauner _______________________________________________ flashrom mailing list [email protected] http://www.flashrom.org/mailman/listinfo/flashrom
