[PATCH v2] i2c: smbus: Add (LP)DDR5 types to `i2c_register_spd()`
Posted by Paul Menzel 1 week, 3 days ago
On several systems Linux logs:

     i2c i2c-0: Memory type 0x22 not supported yet, not instantiating SPD

1.  Supermicro Super Server/X13SAE, BIOS 2.0 10/17/2022
2.  Dell Inc. Precision 3660/0PRR48, BIOS 2.9.3 11/22/2023
3.  Dell Inc. OptiPlex SFF Plus 7010/0YGWFV, BIOS 1.7.1 08/11/2023
4.  Run `git grep 'emory type.*supported yet, not instantiating SPD'` in
    the repository of dmesg reports for various computers collected by
    Linux users at https://linux-hardware.org. [1]

Add 0x22 and 0x23 for DDR5 according to section 7.18.2 (Memory Device —
Type), table 78 in *System Management BIOS (SMBIOS) Reference
Specification*, version 3.6.0 [2].

The same name *ee1004* as for DDR4 is used.

Successfully tested on Supermicro Super Server/X13SAE, BIOS 2.0 10/17/2022:

1.  I have no idea if the name ee1004 is correct.
2.  Should I test other things besides looking at the Linux messages?

Hi Paul,

> 1.  I have no idea if the name ee1004 is correct.

I am afraid this won't work. It was tried already in 2023:

https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-i2c/msg62267.html

Especially note Jean's answer here:

https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-i2c/msg62420.html

So, DDR5 probably needs a new driver.

But thanks for trying!

Thank you for digging this up. Would it be alright, to adapt the warning 
for (LP)DDR5?


Kind regards,

Paul

Sure, good idea. I think it will be helpful to include the standard name
in the message, so people have a starting point, like:

"DDR5 SPD not supported. JEDEC JESD300-5 compatible driver does not exist yet"

Or similar...
