# # I2C subsystem configuration # menuconfig I2C tristate "I2C support" depends on HAS_IOMEM ---help--- I2C (pronounce: I-square-C) is a slow serial bus protocol used in many micro controller applications and developed by Philips. SMBus, or System Management Bus is a subset of the I2C protocol. More information is contained in the directory <file:Documentation/i2c/>, especially in the file called "summary" there. Both I2C and SMBus are supported here. You will need this for hardware sensors support, and also for Video For Linux support. If you want I2C support, you should say Y here and also to the specific driver for your bus adapter(s) below. This I2C support can also be built as a module. If so, the module will be called i2c-core. if I2C config I2C_BOARDINFO boolean default y config I2C_CHARDEV tristate "I2C device interface" help Say Y here to use i2c-* device files, usually found in the /dev directory on your system. They make it possible to have user-space programs use the I2C bus. Information on how to do this is contained in the file <file:Documentation/i2c/dev-interface>. This support is also available as a module. If so, the module will be called i2c-dev. source drivers/i2c/algos/Kconfig source drivers/i2c/busses/Kconfig source drivers/i2c/chips/Kconfig config I2C_DEBUG_CORE bool "I2C Core debugging messages" help Say Y here if you want the I2C core to produce a bunch of debug messages to the system log. Select this if you are having a problem with I2C support and want to see more of what is going on. config I2C_DEBUG_ALGO bool "I2C Algorithm debugging messages" help Say Y here if you want the I2C algorithm drivers to produce a bunch of debug messages to the system log. Select this if you are having a problem with I2C support and want to see more of what is going on. config I2C_DEBUG_BUS bool "I2C Bus debugging messages" help Say Y here if you want the I2C bus drivers to produce a bunch of debug messages to the system log. Select this if you are having a problem with I2C support and want to see more of what is going on. config I2C_DEBUG_CHIP bool "I2C Chip debugging messages" help Say Y here if you want the I2C chip drivers to produce a bunch of debug messages to the system log.
