FAQ and Troubleshooting

12.1

FAQ

Q: What is VSCC and why do I need to set this value?

A: VSCC is an acronym for Vendor Specific Component Capabilities. This defines how

BIOS and Intel

ME communicate with the SPI flash. Improper BIOS and Intel

settings can result in improper flash functionality and lead to premature flash wear out.

VSCC information is defined in two places. Two host-based VSCC registers (Host VSCC0

entries (Management Engine VSCC Table) is available in the Descriptor Table on the SPI

flash. These are separate so Intel

ME FW does not depend on BIOS for identifying the

SPI flash part. This adds some robustness as well as accommodates different BIOS

flows where SPI flash is not identified until after the Intel

ME needs to access the

flash.

The host based VSCC registers must be programmed for any host based application, or

integrated GbE software to access the SPI flash. This will have to be done by your BIOS

and NOT by FITC. See

4.4 Intel

ME Vendor-Specific Component Capabilities (Intel

ME VSCC) Table

and/or

6.5 Recommendations for Flash Configuration Lockdown and

Vendor Component Lock Bits

for more information.

The Intel

ME VSCC table has no flash parts put in by default. All flash parts that are

intended to be used by the platform must have an entry in Intel

ME VSCC table. This

allows the ability for the OEM/ODM to add Intel

ME support to any flash parts that

meet the requirements defined in the Broadwell PCH-LP Family External Design

Specification (EDS) See

4.4 Intel

ME Vendor-Specific Component Capabilities (Intel

ME VSCC) Table

and

7.4 Management Engine VSCC Table

for more information.

Q: How do I find the Flash Programming Tool (FPT) and Flash Image Tool

(FITC) for my platform?

A: The aforementioned flash tools are included in the system tools director in Intel®

ME FW kit. Please ensure that you download the appropriate kit for the target platform.

Q: How do I build an Image for my Intel PCH based platform?

A: Broadwell PCH-LP family based platforms, you can follow the appropriate

instructions in the FW Bringup Guide which is located in the root directory of the

appropriate Intel

ME KIT.

Q: Is my flash part supported by the Flash Programming Tool (FPT)? How can

I add support for a new flash to FPT?

A: Look at fparts.txt to see if the intended flash part is present. If the intended flash

part meets the guidelines defined in the Broadwell PCH-LP Family External Design

Specification (EDS), Intel

Management Engine (Intel

ME) Firmware SPI Flash

Requirements and support may be added to FPT by referring to
