ME Analyzer: Intel Engine Firmware Analysis Tool Discussion

Special Topics Intel Management Engine
338

As I had explained in the past (a, b), I have stopped most of my involvement with (CS)ME related topics, and that includes posting new firmware, updating the repositories/tools and updating ME Analyzer with support for newer platforms.

To be precise, ME Analyzer supports the following firmware, as seen at the README over at GitHub:

(CS)ME (CS)TXE (CS)SPS GSC PMC PCHC PHY OROM
2 0 1 100 APL ICP ICP 19
3 1 2 101 BXT LKF LKF 20
4 2 3 - GLK JSP CMP -
5 3 4 (BA, HA, PU) - CNP CMP TGP -
6 4 5 (ME) - ICP TGP ADP -
7 - 6 (TA) - LKF MCC DG1 -
8 - - - JSP ADP DG2 -
9 - - - CMP - - -
10 - - - TGP - - -
11 - - - MCC - - -
12 - - - ADP - - -
13 (0, 30, 50) - - - DG1 - - -
14 (0, 1, 5) - - - DG2 - - -
15 (0, 40) - - - - - - -
16 (0, 1) - - - - - - -

Any Intel Engine family and/or version which is not listed above, is not supported. There are no plans to add support for other Intel Engine firmware at this point.

In terms of Engine related thread/updates over here, we have the following:

In terms of ME Analyzer, CSME 16.1 is supported, so the entry can be added to its database. So if you report it and attach it to the equivalent CSME 16+ thread, I will see it and probably add it to the DB. But in terms of thread and/or firmware repository updates,
it won’t be added because I stopped at (supported) CSME <= 15.

FYI: I keep saying “supported” CSME 15 because apparently Intel has recently released a platform which uses CSME 15.20 or similar, which is newer and thus not part of the supported firmware at the time in which I stopped, a year or so ago.
