2007-10-13i2c: Rename the PEC functionality bitDavid Brownell
Rename I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_HWPEC_CALC as I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_PEC, and list that functionality as always available through the software implementation. Update documentation accordingly (and list similar requirements). The way it's currently packaged doesn't present the capability in a useful way.

2007-08-31i2c-piix4: Fix SB700 PCI device IDShane Huang
We find that SB700 and SB800 use the same SMBus device ID as SB600, which is 0x4385, instead of the already submitted 0x4395. Besides removing the wrong SB700 device ID, add SB800 support to kernel, by renaming the PCI_DEVICE_ID_ATI_IXP600_SMBUS into PCI_DEVICE_ID_ATI_SBX00_SMBUS.

2007-07-12i2c-i801: Use the internal 32-byte buffer on ICH4+Oleg Ryjkov
Add an ability to utilize the internal SRAM buffer on ICH4 and newer host controllers to speed up execution of block operations. I've split the code so that it is more clear which block transaction is performed. First of all the host controller's type is identified. isich4 is set when we think that the controller has the internal buffer. Then, before every block transaction, if isich4 is set, we attempt to enable the E32B bit in SMBAUXCTL register.

2007-07-12i2c: Fix the i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data() prototypeJean Delvare
Let the drivers specify how many bytes they want to read with i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data(). So far, the block count was hard-coded to I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX (32), which did not make much sense. Many driver authors complained about this before, and I believe it's about time to fix it. Right now, authors have to do technically stupid things, such as individual byte reads or full-fledged I2C messaging, to work around the problem. We do not want to encourage that. I even found that some bus drivers (e.g. i2c-amd8111) already implemented I2C block read the "right" way, that is, they didn't follow the old, broken standard. The fact that it was never noticed before just shows how little i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data() was used, which isn't that surprising given how broken its prototype was so far. There are some obvious compatiblity considerations: * This changes the i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data() prototype. Users outside the kernel tree will notice at compilation time, and will have to update their code. * User-space has access to i2c_smbus_xfer() directly using i2c-dev, so the changed expectations would affect tools such as i2cdump. In order to preserve binary compatibility, we give I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA a new numeric value, and define I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_BROKEN with the old numeric value. When i2c-dev receives a transaction with the old value, it can convert it to the new format on the fly. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>

2007-05-01i2c: Documentation updateJean Delvare
Make the documentation on how to write and port i2c drivers more in line with the current state of things: * i2c-isa is deprecated and soon gone, so stop advertising it. * Drop many sensors-specific references. Most of them were outdated anyway. * Update the example code to reflect the recent and not-so-recent API and coding style preference changes. * Simplify the example init and cleanup functions. This should make things less complex to understand for newcomers. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
2007-05-01i2c: Make i2c_del_driver a void functionJean Delvare

2007-02-13i2c-parport: Add support for One For All remote JP1 interfaceJonathan McDowell
This simple patch adds support to i2c-parport for the One For All remote JP1 parallel port interfaces which can be found detailed at: http://www.hifi-remote.com/jp1/hardware.shtml These allow access to the internal configuration EEPROM on various remote controls and there are a variety of Windows tools that make use of this hardware. I have tested this patch with the "simple" parallel port device and a One For All URC-7562 and confirmed that the data read using the eeprom i2c driver matches that returned by the Windows "IR" JP1 tool.

2007-02-13i2c: Add driver suspend/resume/shutdown supportDavid Brownell
Driver model updates for the I2C core: - Add new suspend(), resume(), and shutdown() methods. Use them in the standard driver model style; document them. - Minor doc updates to highlight zero-initialized fields in drivers, and the driver model accessors for "clientdata". If any i2c drivers were previously using the old suspend/resume calls in "struct driver", they were getting warning messages ... and will now no longer work. Other than that, this patch changes no behaviors; and it lets I2C drivers use conventional PM and shutdown support.

i2c-stub: Chip address as a module parameter Add a mandatory chip_addr parameter to i2c-stub. This parameter defines to which chip address the driver will respond, instead of reponding to all addresses as before.

2006-06-22[PATCH] I2C: i2c-piix4: Remove the fix_hstcfg parameterRudolf Marek
This patch removes the fix_hstcfg option from the driver and related SMBus Interrupt Select register magic because now we know what are valid values for this register. This patch updates the documentation and adds new IRQ mode check so we are sure not to miss any new "unusual" value. The PCI quirk for users of fix_hstcfg was not developed because the chipset lacks of subsystem ID registers and DMI is stated "To be filled". Impact to existing systems is minimal because the problem showed up on motherboards like 10 years back. On the other hand users of newer Serverworks and HT1000 systems won't be misleaded by the message suggesting to try the fix_hstcfg any more.

2006-04-14[PATCH] i2c-parport: Make type parameter mandatoryMark M. Hoffman
This patch forces the user to specify what type of adapter is present when loading i2c-parport or i2c-parport-light. If none is specified, the driver init simply fails - instead of assuming adapter type 0. This alleviates the sometimes lengthy boot time delays which can be caused by accidentally building one of these into a kernel along with several i2c slave drivers that have lengthy probe routines (e.g. hwmon drivers). Kconfig and documentation updated accordingly. Signed-off-by: Mark M.

2006-01-05[PATCH] i2c: Rework client usage count, 3 of 3Jean Delvare
Do not limit the usage count of i2c clients to 1. In other words, change the client usage count behavior from the old I2C_CLIENT_ALLOW_USE to the old I2C_CLIENT_ALLOW_MULTIPLE_USE. The rationale is that no driver actually needs the limiting behavior, and the unlimiting behavior is slightly easier to implement. Update the documentation to reflect this change.

2006-01-05[PATCH] i2c: Drop i2c_driver.flags, 2 of 3Jean Delvare
Just about every i2c chip driver sets the I2C_DF_NOTIFY flag, so we can simply make it the default and drop the flag. If any driver really doesn't want to be notified when i2c adapters are added, that driver can simply omit to set .attach_adapter. This approach is also more robust as it prevents accidental NULL pointer dereferences. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
