The SPD data obtained from memory +part vendors has to be massaged to format it correctly as per JEDEC and Intel MRC +expectations. These tools take a list of memory parts describing their physical +attributes as per their datasheet and convert those attributes into SPD files for +the platforms. More details about the tools are added in +[README.md](https://review.coreboot.org/plugins/gitiles/coreboot/+/refs/heads/master/util/spd_tools/intel/lp4x/README.md). + ### Add significant changes here |
