An information handling system may include a processor and a read-only memory communicatively coupled to the processor and comprising a basic input/output system (BIOS)-accessible region of the read-only memory including a first subregion communicatively coupled to the processor via a first communications interface and a second subregion communicatively coupled to the processor via a second communications interface. The information handling system may also include the BIOS, configured to responsive to a read request from the processor to the BIOS-accessible region determine whether a memory address associated with the read request is within a decoding range of the first subregion, cause the processor to access the first subregion via the first communications interface if the memory address is within the decoding range, and cause the processor to access the second subregion via the second communications interface if the memory address is outside the decoding range.
