I am developing software for performing firmware updates on laptops with eMMC storage. However, when I issue IOCTL_STORAGE_FIRMWARE_DOWNLOAD, I receive an ERROR_INVALID_FUNCTION. I have also tried using the Intel eMMC firmware update tool, but it fails when executing. Are there any prerequisites or minimum requirements for performing firmware updates on eMMC devices?
