Hi Anastasia, Thanks for your input I will try looking into this possible solution. I already tried the padding solution but it did not work. Once again, thank you for mainlining the patch.

Caution: This message originated from an External Source. Use proper caution when opening attachments, clicking links, or responding. As a quick addition to my previous message: What you also can try, is to create a layout file with the region of size 16MB, and then set the option to only write this region. The area outside the region will not be modified. If you decide to go this way, please read manpage, especially -l and -i options https://flashrom.org/classic_cli_manpage.html On Fri, Jun 14, 2024 at 12:22 PM Anastasia Klimchuk <a...@chromium.org> wrote: > > Hello Avinash, > > Sorry for some delay in response.
