Does Chainfire Rooting support Andriod 5.1.1 firmware ?

No, i dont believe it works with any lollipop version. What is your device?

Well, I've rooted my 5.1.1 Nexus 5 using Chainfire's UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip flashable, so it works for me

It's flashable . .It mean you have flashed it from recovery?

Yes

Always make a Nandroid backup beforehand, though

Well I think he meant cf auto root, for rooting Sammy devices using Odin. But a custom recovery and flashing the SuperSU zip is also reliable
