Why do you need this?
When intel k3 chips power up, they are locked ba hardware and the sequence must be issued to unlock to be able to erase something.
On a first look I put it among the AMD flash_unlock_seq function, which does something similair I thought.
Can't you just use "protect off" command to unlock the sectors you need to write?
Well, sounds also reasonable. But am I blind? Where is the code, which unprotects something, when "protect off x:y-z" is issued? I agree, an Automatic unlocking is... But I still need this "protect off x:y-z" with my provided code, the chip comes up with all sectors (RO) stillm and they _are_ (RO). Only after manual "protect off x:y-z" I can erase something. Before I could _nothing_ write to the chip. Well, I could but nothing happened. Kinda hardware locked.
