Hello list,

inside the automatic U-Boot patch tracking system a new ticket [DNX#2006090742000024] was created:

<snip>

Hello,

Attached is a patch providing support for multiple I2C buses at the command level. The second part of the patch includes an implementation for the MPC834x CPU and MPC8349EMDS board.

/*** Note: This patch replaces ticket DNX#2006083042000018 ***/

Signed-off-by: Ben Warren bwarren@qstreams.com

Overview:

1. Include new 'i2c' command (based on USB implementation) using

CONFIG_I2C_CMD_TREE.

2. Allow multiple buses by defining CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS. Note that

the commands to change bus number and speed are only available under the new 'i2c' command mentioned in the first bullet.

3. The option CFG_I2C_NOPROBES has been expanded to work in multi-bus

systems. When CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS is used, this option takes the form of an array of bus-device pairs. Otherwise, it is an array of uchar.

CHANGELOG: Added new 'i2c' master command for all I2C interaction. This is conditionally compiled with CONFIG_I2C_CMD_TREE. New commands added for setting I2C bus speed as well as changing the active bus if the board has more than one (conditionally compiled with CONFIG_I2C_MULTI_BUS). Updated NOPROBE logic to handle multiple buses. Updated README.

regards, Ben
