Subject: [PATCH 2/2] i2c-algo-bit: Complain about masters which can't read SCL
Date: Tue, 7 Dec 2010 11:07:05 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101207110705.69792a1a@endymion.delvare> (raw)

The I2C specification explicitly describes both SDA and SCL as
bidirectional lines. An I2C master with a read-only SCL is thus not
compliant. If a slow slave stretches the clock, errors will happen,
so the bus can't be considered as reliable.
