Found chipset "Intel Lynx Point LP Premium". This chipset is marked as untested. If you are using an up-to-date version of flashrom *and* were (not) able to successfully update your firmware with it, then please email a report to flashrom@flashrom.org including a verbose (-V) log. Thank you! Enabling flash write... Warning: BIOS region SMM protection is enabled! Warning: Setting Bios Control at 0xdc from 0x22 to 0x01 failed. New value is 0x22. SPI Configuration is locked down. FREG0: Flash Descriptor region (0x00000000-0x00000fff) is read-only. FREG2: Management Engine region (0x00001000-0x002fffff) is locked. Not all flash regions are freely accessible by flashrom. This is most likely due to an active ME. Please see https://flashrom.org/ME for details. PR0: Warning: 0x00700000-0x007fffff is read-only. PR1: Warning: 0x00324000-0x006a1fff is read-only. At least some flash regions are read protected. You have to use a flash layout and include only accessible regions. For write operations, you'll additionally need the --noverify-all switch. See manpage for more details. OK. No EEPROM/flash device found. Note: flashrom can never write if the flash chip isn't found automatically.
