Brief summary

ME is disabled despite being enabled in Setup

How reproducible

100% now

How to reproduce

Set Intel ME mode to Enabled. check if it is working. I tried these commands:

lspci | grep 00:16.0
lspci | grep -i management
intelmetool --me

Expected behavior

with lspci the ME engine entry should be found, like: "Intel Corporation Meteor Lake Management Engine Interface" with intelmetool info about ME should be printed

Actual behavior

"lspci | grep " commands find nothing coreboot intelmetool says Can't find ME PCI device

Screenshots

No response

Additional context

I have first disabled the ME (soft) and only then checked if Enabled works which is not the default order of the tests. I don't know if it worked initially.

Solutions you've tried

rebooting, diabling and reenabling

I believe this is a duplicate of https://github.com/Dasharo/dasharo-issues/issues/984 , a fix will be in rc4

On V540TND v0.9.1-rc5 the ME is visible in lspci as 00:16.0 Communication controller: Intel Corporation Device 7e70 (rev 20) which is probably an issue with the OS not defining a name for this device ID. intelmetool says Can't find ME PCI device which may be related to the naming issue. @mkopec should this be considered fixed?

which is probably an issue with the OS not defining a name for this device ID

Try lspci -q, this updates the PCI ID database, the device was added to the db pretty recently: https://admin.pci-ids.ucw.cz/read/PC/8086/7e70

intelmetool probably doesn't have the PCI ID for this device, which is why it's failing to find it here.

@mkopec should this be considered fixed?

Yes, thanks, closing
