# Intel E810 (ice)

The NIC the committed measurement path was built against: its datapath delivers per-packet MAC RX timestamps (`rx_filter=ALL`), which bucketing and `probe.go` require. A patched ice + `sff_i2c` exists for read-side diagnostics work.

## Module I2C: multi-byte framing works, writes are policy-blocked
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- topo-I2C (0x06E2/E3) has offset-size control: params bit[7] repeated-start, [6:5] address length, [3:0] data size. **Reads work perfectly.**
|
||
|
|
- Every write returns aq 1 (EPERM) — tested identically against EEPROM 0x50 and BCM 0x56, so the block is write-vs-read, not address-scoped. Intel policy, survives NVM update; NVM 5.01 hardened the 3.10 silent-drop into an explicit EPERM.
|

|
|
- Dead for anything needing writes: RollBall unlock needs a write; BCM SMI reads *start* with a write.
