Subject: Re: [PATCH RESEND v7 1/2] at24: support eeproms that do not
 auto-rollover reads.

2017-12-08 17:28 GMT+01:00 Sven Van Asbroeck <svendev@...x.com>:
> Some multi-address eeproms in the at24 family may not automatically
> roll-over reads to the next slave address. On those eeproms, reads
> that straddle slave boundaries will not work correctly.
>
> Solution:
> Mark such eeproms with a flag that prevents reads straddling
> slave boundaries. Add the AT24_FLAG_NO_RDROL flag to the eeprom
> entry in the device_id table, or add 'no-read-rollover' to the
> eeprom devicetree entry.

> However, my hardware requires this functionality because of
