Each ONIE system must include non-volatile storage which contains vital
product data assigned by the manufacturer. The non-volatile storage
could take the form of an EEPROM, a NOR-flash sector, a NAND-flash
sector or any other non-volatile storage medium.

I am not aware about other nvmem devices which are used for existing
ONIE supported boards.

As long as you represent this parsing function as some library function,
I do not see any issue.
If any exported symbol is available for this then any nvmem provider
could use it.

Hi Srinivas,

Can I note here that I would like to parse
TLV data from an SPI-NOR device to NVMEM cells.
The same general use case (getting mac-address from OEM data).

Was planning to base my work on this series, as well as
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20210908100257.17833-1-qiangqing.zhang@xxxxxxx/

This series is for post-processing nvmem cell data before it gets to consumers. Are you referring to parsing nvmem cell information (offset, name) in your usecase like: https://opencomputeproject.github.io/onie/design-spec/hw_requirements.html

Or
Are you referring to post-processing nvmem cell data ?

(thanks for pointing that out Srinivas)

Cheers,
