Pull i2c updates from Wolfram Sang:
"This pull request contains:
- i2c core reorganization. One source file became too monolithic. It
is now split up, yet we still have the same named object as the
final output. This should ease maintenance.
- new drivers: ZTE ZX2967 family, ASPEED 24XX/25XX
- designware driver gained slave mode support
- xgene-slimpro driver gained ACPI support
- bigger overhaul for pca-platform driver
- the algo-bit module now supports messages with enforced STOP
- slightly bigger than usual set of driver updates and improvements
and with much appreciated quality assurance from Andy Shevchenko"

I\ :sup:`2`\ C and SMBus Subsystem
|
|
==================================
|
|
|
|
I\ :sup:`2`\ C (or without fancy typography, "I2C") is an acronym for
|
|
the "Inter-IC" bus, a simple bus protocol which is widely used where low
|
|
data rate communications suffice. Since it's also a licensed trademark,
|
|
some vendors use another name (such as "Two-Wire Interface", TWI) for
|
|
the same bus. I2C only needs two signals (SCL for clock, SDA for data),
|
|
conserving board real estate and minimizing signal quality issues. Most
|
|
I2C devices use seven bit addresses, and bus speeds of up to 400 kHz;
|
|
there's a high speed extension (3.4 MHz) that's not yet found wide use.
|
|
I2C is a multi-master bus; open drain signaling is used to arbitrate
|
|
between masters, as well as to handshake and to synchronize clocks from
|
|
slower clients.
|
|
|
|
The Linux I2C programming interfaces support the master side of bus
|
|
interactions and the slave side. The programming interface is
|
|
structured around two kinds of driver, and two kinds of device. An I2C
|
|
"Adapter Driver" abstracts the controller hardware; it binds to a
|
|
physical device (perhaps a PCI device or platform_device) and exposes a
|
|
:c:type:`struct i2c_adapter <i2c_adapter>` representing each
|
|
I2C bus segment it manages. On each I2C bus segment will be I2C devices
|
|
represented by a :c:type:`struct i2c_client <i2c_client>`.
|
|
Those devices will be bound to a :c:type:`struct i2c_driver
|
|
<i2c_driver>`, which should follow the standard Linux driver model. There
|
|
are functions to perform various I2C protocol operations; at this writing
|
|
all such functions are usable only from task context.
|
|
|
|
The System Management Bus (SMBus) is a sibling protocol. Most SMBus
|
|
systems are also I2C conformant. The electrical constraints are tighter
|
|
for SMBus, and it standardizes particular protocol messages and idioms.
|
|
Controllers that support I2C can also support most SMBus operations, but
|
|
SMBus controllers don't support all the protocol options that an I2C
|
|
controller will. There are functions to perform various SMBus protocol
|
|
operations, either using I2C primitives or by issuing SMBus commands to
|
|
i2c_adapter devices which don't support those I2C operations.
