Subject: New Style I2C Driver : how to get clients ?
Date: Thu, 24 Jul 2008 11:07:12 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1216890432.48884640c4486@imp.free.fr> (raw)

Hello,

I am currently writing a I2C driver for a custom embedded board.
I have read lot about writing I2C driver using Linux I2C layer.

But there are still a few things I don't anderstand.
I am quite confuse.



I have written an algorithm and an adapter. For instance, I just register my
adapter on the module_init.

- Is it important for adapters to be registred as platform_driver ?
- Will it remove the 'forgot to specify physical address' error ?
- Can I ignore 'forgot to specify physical address' error ?


For my driver, I only implement probe(client) and remove(client).

They are never called !!


I thought the I2C layer register automatically the I2C devices present on the
bus.
Am I wrong ?

- How can I specify the addresses of my I2C clients ?
- What about i2c_probe ? Do I need to call it directly ?


Thank you for help.


Best regards.

Légion.
