[PATCH v4 4/7] nvmem: layouts: add Microchip/SST SFDP EUI layout driver

Tue Jun 30 02:24:03 PDT 2026


Add an NVMEM layout that exposes the factory-programmed EUI-48 identifier
from the Microchip/SST vendor SFDP parameter table (e.g. SST26VF064BEUI)
as a "mac-address" cell, for use as a network MAC address. The vendor
table is located at runtime via the SFDP NVMEM device (no offset in DT),
and a read_post_process callback reverses the LSB-first bytes into
canonical MAC order. Binds to an "nvmem-layout" node with compatible
"microchip,sst26vf-sfdp-eui".
