Subject: i2c bus multiplexing (Version 2).
Date: Thu, 5 Feb 2009 14:36:07 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1233840973-13268-1-git-send-email-giometti@linux.it> (raw)
This patch set adds to the I2C core the ability to handle multiplexed
I2C bus topologies by presenting each multiplexed segment as a I2C
adapter.
As you can see from the changelog I had to update i2c-core since when
a real adapter (not multiplexer) driver is inserted into the kernel
_after_ an i2c multiplxer one, function i2c_add_adapter() is called
recursively (and the same for i2c_del_adapter() during module removal)
causing a kernel hang due the i2c's "core_lock" mutex.
Changelog
=========
Version 1 -> 2:
---------------
* Fixes a bug related to recursive calls of i2c_(add|del)_adapter()
functions when main adapter is inserted or removed _after_ slave
adapetrs (i2c multiplexers).
This goal has been achieved by:
a) using rwsem instead of mutex for accessing board info data struct,
b) ignoring any active client detaching faults (see relative patch for
further info),
c) removing "core_lock" mutex into adapters (de)registration code.
