Re: Kontron CONFIG_I2C_KEMPLD support in Fish River Island 2? Or Crownbay?

[kevin.strasser@linux.intel.com]

Hi Bill,

The kempld patch set was first merged in version 3.11 of the Linux Kernel
in effort to enable various functionality on the FRI2 platform. At this
point I don't believe they are included in any official BSPs, so you may
wish to backport the drivers. I was involved in pushing these drivers
upstream, and I'm happy to field any further questions you might have.

Thanks,
Kevin Strasser
