2009-06-23V4L/DVB (12108): v4l2-i2c-drv.h: add comment describing when not to use this ↵Hans Verkuil
header. Make it very clear that this header should not be used for i2c drivers that do not need to be compiled for pre-2.6.26 kernels. As soon as the minimum supported kernel in the v4l-dvb repository becomes 2.6.26 or up, then this header should be removed entirely.

2009-04-06V4L/DVB (11372): v4l2: use old-style i2c API for kernels < 2.6.26 instead of ↵Hans Verkuil
< 2.6.22 Originally the intention was to switch to the new style i2c API starting with the introduction of the API in 2.6.22. However, the i2c_new_probed_device() function has a lethal bug that wasn't fixed until 2.6.25. Or more accurately, it was only fixed in the stable series of 2.6.25 and 2.6.26. Given the fact that the new i2c API also changed starting with 2.6.26 (the addition of i2c_device_id), it is easiest to switch APIs starting with 2.6.26. This patch updates all the legacy code accordingly. Signed-off-by: Hans Verkuil <hverkuil@xs4all.nl> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com>

2008-10-17V4L/DVB (9209): v4l2: add comment to the v4l2-i2c-drv headers.Hans Verkuil
Looking at these headers as they appear in the kernel makes you wonder why it is done that way. Refer to the v4l-dvb repository where the full unstripped header can be found to understand the reasoning behind this.

2008-05-11i2c: Convert some more new-style drivers to use module aliasingJean Delvare
Update 3 more new-style i2c drivers to use standard module aliasing instead of the old driver_name/type driver matching scheme. These video drivers aren't used yet so converting them is trivial. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
2008-04-29i2c: Add support for device alias namesJean Delvare
Based on earlier work by Jon Smirl and Jochen Friedrich. This patch allows new-style i2c chip drivers to have alias names using the official kernel aliasing system and MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(). At this point, the old i2c driver binding scheme (driver_name/type) is still supported.

2008-01-25V4L/DVB (6460): v4l2-i2c-drv: add legacy_probe function pointerHans Verkuil
Some devices do complicated tests whether the device can be probed or not. Add a legacy_probe function pointer to support that. Signed-off-by: Hans Verkuil <hverkuil@xs4all.nl> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org>
2008-01-25V4L/DVB (6451): v4l2: add support for bus-based I2C driversHans Verkuil
Two new headers were added: one for I2C drivers that are only used by V4L2 drivers converted to the new bus-based I2C API, and one that can be used by both converted and unconverted drivers (at the expense of some additional overhead). To support the legacy I2C API a helper function was added to v4l2-common.c. These headers take care of all the 'boilerplate' code that all V4L2 I2C drivers have in common and will automatically support the bus-based I2C API introduced in kernel 2.6.22.
