Update the documented list of devices supported by the i2c-i810 driver. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2005-10-28[PATCH] i2c: Documentation updateJean Delvare
Update the i2c documentation: kzalloc should be used instead of kmalloc. I also fixed a couple other things nearby in writing-clients, as several past changes had never been reported there. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2005-10-28[PATCH] i2c-viapro: Implement I2C Block transactionsJean Delvare
Implement the I2C block transactions on VIA chips which support them: VT82C686B, VT8233, VT8233A, VT8235 and VT8237R. This speeds up EEPROM accesses by a factor 10 or so. I would like to thank Antonino A. Daplas, Hinko Kocevar, Salah Coronya and Andreas Henriksson for their help in testing this new feature.

2005-09-05[PATCH] I2C: Centralize 24RF08 corruption preventionJean Delvare
The 24RF08 corruption would better be prevented at i2c-core level than at chip driver level, for several reasons: * The second quick write should happen as soon as possible after the first one, so as to limit the risk that another command is issued on the bus inbetween, causing the corruption. * As a matter of fact, the protection code at driver level was reworked at least three times already, which proves how hard it is to get it right there, while it's straightforward at i2c-core level. * It's easy to add a new driver that would need the protection, and forget to add it. This did happen already. * As additional probing addresses can be passed to most i2c chip drivers as module parameters, virtually every i2c chip driver would need the protection if we want to be really safe. * Why duplicate code when we can easily avoid it?

2005-09-05[PATCH] I2C: Rewrite i2c_probeJean Delvare
i2c_probe was quite complex and slow, so I rewrote it in a more efficient and hopefully clearer way. Note that this slightly changes the way the module parameters are handled. This shouldn't change anything for the most common cases though. For one thing, the function now respects the order of the parameters for address probing. It used to always do lower addresses first. The new approach gives the user more control. For another, ignore addresses don't overrule probe addresses anymore. This could have been restored the way it was at the cost of a few more lines of code, but I don't think it's worth it. Both lists are given as module parameters, so a user would be quite silly to specify the same addresses in both lists. The normal addresses list is the only one that isn't controlled by a module parameter, thus is the only one the user may reasonably want to remove an address from. Another significant change is the fact that i2c_probe() will no more stop when a detection function returns -ENODEV. Just because a driver found a chip it doesn't support isn't a valid reason to stop all probings for this one driver. This closes the long standing lm_sensors ticket #1807. http://www2.lm-sensors.nu/~lm78/readticket.cgi?ticket=1807 I updated the documentation accordingly. In terms of algorithmic complexity, the new code is way better. If I is the ignore address count, P the probe address count, N the normal address count and F the force address count, the old code was doing 128 * (F + I + P + N) iterations max, while the new code does F + P + ((I+1) * N) iterations max. For the most common case where F, I and P are empty, this is down from 128 * N to N. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2005-09-05[PATCH] hwmon: hwmon vs i2c, second round (07/11)Jean Delvare
The only part left in i2c-sensor is the VRM/VRD/VID handling code. This is in no way related to i2c, so it doesn't belong there. Move the code to hwmon, where it belongs. Note that not all hardware monitoring drivers do VRM/VRD/VID operations, so less drivers depend on hwmon-vid than there were depending on i2c-sensor.

2005-09-05[PATCH] hwmon: hwmon vs i2c, second round (06/11)Jean Delvare
The only thing left in i2c-sensor.h are module parameter definition macros. It's only an extension of what i2c.h offers, and this extension is not sensors-specific. As a matter of fact, a few non-sensors drivers use them. So we better merge them in i2c.h, and get rid of i2c-sensor.h altogether.

2005-09-05[PATCH] hwmon: hwmon vs i2c, second round (04/11)Jean Delvare
i2c_probe and i2c_detect now do the exact same thing and operate on the same data structure, so we can have everyone call i2c_probe. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2005-09-05[PATCH] I2C: fix typo in documentationJean Delvare
Fix a typo in the i2c documentation: the i2c bus scanning tool found in lm_sensors is called i2cdetect, not i2c_detect. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2005-09-05[PATCH] I2C: refactor message in i2c_detach_clientJean Delvare
We could refactor the error message 34 different i2c drivers print if i2c_detach_client() fails in this function itself. Saves quite a few lines of code. Documentation is updated to reflect that change. Note that this patch should be applied after Rudolf Marek's w83792d patches.

2005-09-05[PATCH] I2C: Separate non-i2c hwmon drivers from i2c-core (8/9)Jean Delvare
Kill all uses of i2c_is_isa_adapter except for the hybrid drivers (it87, lm78, w83781d). The i2c-isa adapter not being registered with the i2c core anymore, drivers don't have to fear being erroneously attached to it. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2005-09-05[PATCH] I2C: Separate non-i2c hwmon drivers from i2c-core (7/9)Jean Delvare
Kill normal_isa in header files, documentation and all chip drivers, as it is no more used. normal_i2c could be renamed to normal, but I decided not to do so at the moment, so as to limit the number of changes. This might be done later as part of the i2c_probe/i2c_detect merge. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2005-07-11[PATCH] I2C: Move hwmon drivers (3/3)Jean Delvare

2005-07-11[PATCH] I2C: minor I2C doc cleanupsdavid-b@pacbell.net
The I2C stack has long had "id" fields, of rather dubious utility, in many data structures. This removes mention of one of them from the documentation about how to write an I2C driver, so that only drivers that really need to use them (probably old/legacy code) will have any reason to use this field.

This patch removes the support for the W83697HF and W83627THF chips from the w83781d driver. These chips have no I2C/SMBus interface and are better supported by the Super-I/O-based w83627hf driver.

2005-06-21[PATCH] I2C: Kill address ranges in non-sensors i2c chip driversJean Delvare
Some months ago, you killed the address ranges mechanism from all sensors i2c chip drivers (both the module parameters and the in-code address lists). I think it was a very good move, as the ranges can easily be replaced by individual addresses, and this allowed for significant cleanups in the i2c core (let alone the impressive size shrink for all these drivers). Unfortunately you did not do the same for non-sensors i2c chip drivers. These need the address ranges even less, so we could get rid of the ranges here as well for another significant i2c core cleanup. Here comes a patch which does just that. Since the process is exactly the same as what you did for the other drivers set already, I did not split this one in parts. A documentation update is included. The change saves 308 bytes in the i2c core, and an average 1382 bytes for chip drivers which use I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD, 126 bytes for those which do not. This change is required if we want to merge the sensors and non-sensors i2c code (and we want to do this).

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
