This patchset fixes few bugs in the existing s3c24x0.c code (standard i2c) and add support for High-speed i2c bus controller available on Exynos5 SoCs from Samsung.
Exynos5250 channels [0 ~ 3] can configured for I2C contoller or new HSI2C controller channels [3 ~ 7] are standard I2C controller channels Exynos5420 channels [0 ~ 3] are standard I2C controller channels and channels [4 ~ 10] are High-speed controller channels
Patchset:
exynos: i2c: Fix i2c driver to handle NACKs properly Improvements and fixes from Vadim Bendebury for standard i2c calls
exynos: i2c: Change FDT bus setup code to enumerate ports correctly FDT bus setup code from Simon Glass
PATCH v5: i2c: s3c24xx: add hsi2c controller support High-speed controller register description and defines new i2c
read/write, probe and set_bus calls.
This is been reviewed earlier at http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2013-May/153245.html Thanks for review and improvements from Vadim Bendebury.Question: 4. RFC: samsung: i2c: Enable new CONFIG_SYS_I2C framework I've tried to implement the new I2C multi bus framework in u-boot tree, taking tegra-i2c.c as reference.
a). We have different number of channels on Exynos5250 and Exynos5420 (as explained above). How are we supposed to define the U_BOOT_I2C_ADAP_COMPLETE in such cases. Can i use #ifdef EXYNOS5420 or EXYNOS5250
From my side, Yes.
Ok, Will do accordingly. But, I would prefer a way of integrating it to FDT or passing as platform data (board files) instead of keeping it in the driver.
b). When i define 11 buses as in the case of Exynos5420, the "i2c bus" lists them SMDK5420 # i2c bus Bus 0: s3c0 Bus 1: s3c1 Bus 2: s3c10 Bus 3: s3c2 Bus 4: s3c3 Bus 5: s3c4 Bus 6: s3c5 Bus 7: s3c6 Bus 8: s3c7 Bus 9: s3c8 Bus 10: s3c9 or (If i change the name to hsi2c) SMDK5420 # i2c bus Bus 0: hsi2c10 Bus 1: hsi2c4 Bus 2: hsi2c5 Bus 3: hsi2c6 Bus 4: hsi2c7 Bus 5: hsi2c8 Bus 6: hsi2c9 Bus 7: s3c0 Bus 8: s3c1 Bus 9: s3c2 Bus 10: s3c3
Whats the expected behaviour. If the above result is correct, I need to changei the strings to get them in the correct order.
What, if you use two digits:
Bus 0: hsi2c01 Bus 1: hsi2c02 [...] Bus 7: s3c00 Bus 8: s3c01 [...]
?
Or with one digit:
Bus 0: hsi2c1 Bus 1: hsi2c2 [...]
Bus 7: s3c0 Bus 8: s3c1 [...]
In the Exynos5420 hardware channels are as below
channel: --0----1----2----3------4--------5---------6-------7--------8-------9-------10 controller: i2c, i2c, i2c, i2c, hsi2c, hsi2c, hsi2c, hsi2c, hsi2c, hsi2c, hsi2c. But the "i2c bus" command is showing the bus number according to the "name" string comparison. Which seems wrong. Isn't it ??
c). What's the alternative for the board_i2c_init(), i2c_get_bus_num_fdt(), i2c_reset_port_fdt(). "Functions to get the I2C bus number and reset I2C bus using FDT node"
I think, these functions are still needed.Hmm.. that needs a general discussion, how to use fdt and i2c I think.
I would prefer a way (not really nowing, if it is possible for all configurations) where, if using fdt, the DT gets parsed and the availiable i2c buses gets created ... After that, "normal" i2c access with i2c_set_bus_num(), i2c_read/write should be possible ... this is currently not possible with the i2c framework, but should not be so hard to do. Except the restriction, that it would not work in SPL case, or before relocation for i2c buses announced through dt
once i2c_init_board() is done board_i2c_init() is not quite needed using i2c_init_board we can avoid the relocation problem aswell.
by the definition of i2c_get_bus_num() in drivers/i2c/i2c_core.c
unsigned int i2c_get_bus_num(void) { return gd->cur_i2c_bus; }
we don't need a special function i2c_get_bus_num_fdt()
IMHO, i2c_reset_port_fdt() is the only function to be discussed
Define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MAX_HOPS -> CONFIG_SYS_I2C_DIRECT_BUS is not defined so i2c_bus[] is used in drivers/i2c/i2c_core.c. Define the fix i2c buses in the board config file with CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BUSES (if you have no fix buses, let this empty) and add a function in drivers/i2c/i2c_core.c, which adds new i2c buses to i2c_bus[] after the fix buses and call this new function, from where you interpret the fdt ...
I din't quite understood this. Can you point me to some readme or Doc or discussion Please.
int i2c_get_bus_num_fdt(int node) should be integrated to drivers/i2c/i2c_core.c
For what purpose is i2c_reset_port_fdt() ?
