[PATCH 4/4] i2c: cgbc: Add virtual storage devices on the virtual I2C bus
From: Thomas Richard (congatec GmbH)
Date: Tue Aug 04 2026 - 12:14:46 EST
Add support for virtual storage devices exposed by the Board Controller
on its virtual I2C bus. There are two device types: EEPROM for persistent
storage and RAM for non-persistent storage:
- Secure Data EEPROM (64 bytes, RO): static and dynamic board info
- BIOS EEPROM (32 bytes, RW): reserved for BIOS applications
- BC EEPROM (32 bytes, RO): Board Controller operational params
- User EEPROM (32 bytes, RW): user applications
- BIOS RAM (32 bytes, RW): reserved for BIOS applications
- BC RAM (8 bytes, RO): Board Controller operational params
- User RAM (16 bytes, RW): user applications
Use the at24 driver with the 24c01 entry (the most generic one) for all
virtual storage devices, customizing parameters via software_node
properties (size, pagesize, read-only flag, label).
