It will be really interesting to see what production devices this is enabled on - It mentions the OnePlus 6 at least which has it fused out but is still accessible.

Edit: How are they reading the eFuses on a production OnePlus 6? Do they have a Qualcomm-signed EL3 EDL loader?

It seems to exist as qcom,msm-eud in the device tree of a (unfortunately production) SM4350 device I have along with an eud_enable_reg. Time to recompile the kernel with `/dev/mem`.

yeah EDL loaders for a bunch of production devices exist here [0] also more on various XDA Forum posts for stuff like unbricking guides. It is worth noting for people who don't
