Subject: [PATCH net-next v5 3/4] net: pse-pd: realtek-pse-mcu: add I2C transport
Date: Mon, 6 Jul 2026 11:24:23 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260706112425.3149226-4-jelonek.jonas@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260706112425.3149226-1-jelonek.jonas@gmail.com>
Add the I2C/SMBus transport for the Realtek/Broadcom PSE MCU core. It
registers the MCU on an I2C bus and provides the send/recv callbacks the
core uses to exchange the 12-byte frames.
The MCU firmware expects one of two framings on the I2C bus, selected per
board via the "realtek,i2c-protocol" property: "smbus" (reads carry a
leading command byte and a repeated start) or "i2c" (bare block writes and
reads). The property is required for the Realtek dialect; the Broadcom
dialect and boards that omit it default to SMBus framing.
