Hi,

I2C chips do exist that require a write of some multi-byte data to occur in a single bus transaction (aka atomic transfer), otherwise either the write does not come into effect at all, or normal operation of internal circuitry cannot be guaranteed. The current implementation of the 'i2c write' command (transfer of multiple bytes from a memory buffer) in fact performs a separate transaction for each byte to be written and thus cannot support such types of I2C slave devices.
This patch provides an alternative by allowing 'i2c write' to execute the write transfer of the given number of bytes in a single bus transaction if the '-s' option is specified as a final command argument. Else the current re-addressing method is used.

Changes in V3: Rebased on current master. Changes in V2: The option to use bulk transfer vs re-addressing is implemented as a run-time command argument. V1 used conditional compilation through a board header definition.

I should try to apply a patch before saying I tend to accept a patch ;-)
This patch fails again (Sorry Lubomir) ... because in the meantime this patch from Simon is in mainline:
commit f9a4c2da72d04e13b05deecb800f232d2948eb85 Author: Simon Glass sjg@chromium.org Date: Mon Jan 12 18:02:07 2015 -0700
dm: i2c: Rename driver model I2C functions to permit compatibility
Which introduced dm_i2c_write() ...
What platform are you testing on?
It seems like you could implement this using driver model - just set or clear the DM_I2C_CHIP_WR_ADDRESS flag.
That would solve the problem of existing platforms, since they could be tested when converted to driver model.
So what do you think about adjusting this patch to move the '#ifdef CONFIG_DM_I2C' outside the while loop, and set the flag instead? Although then your feature would only be available for driver model.
Thinking about this, wouldn;t it be better to add this patch to this patch?
