  Description     : A tool for modification of the Broadcom Sonics Silicon Backplane SPROM

The ssb-sprom tool allows for the modification of Broadcom Sonics Silicon
Backplane SPROM data, e.g. the MAC address or the PCI IDs.

This is especially useful if your BIOS checks the device IDs at boot as some
vendors (Compaq/HP) do in notebooks to prevent the use of third-party hardware.

The SPROM data is exposed through sysfs in Linux.
