chipsec.modules.tools.sw_seq module

SW Sequencing SPI Configuration checks

Test will look for blocked OPCODEs, blocked PREFIX codes, verify the OPTYPEs of each OPCODE, check SPI module size & alignment, and if the OPMENU register is writable.

ICH7, ICH8, ICH9, & ICH10: To run on a system with any of these chipsets, use the –a switch and make sure to include the compatibility switch, -i.

usage:

chipsec_main -m tools.sw_seq [-i -a <ICHx>]

• -a :<ICHx> ICH on platform = ICH7 | ICH8 | ICH9 | ICH10

Where:

• []: optional line

Examples:

>>> chipsec_main.py -m tools.sw_seq
>>> chipsec_main.py -m tools.sw_seq -i -a ICH8

Note

Applicable to systems that use SPI Software sequencing.
