Hi Wolfram,

 

Thank you for your quick response, really appreciate.

 

You're saying "You supply i2c_board_info in your board init code and when the
i2c adapter is initialized", but I'm quite sure there won't be a such static i2c_board_info in the board init code.

 

And I'm just wonder if there is a dynamic detect method to go?

 

Here is my proposed code, can you please help to correct it if I'm wrong?

 

static const unsigned short normal_i2c[] = { DEVICE_ADDRESS, I2C_CLIENT_END };
I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD(foo);

 

static int foo_detect(struct i2c_client *client, int kind,
                             struct i2c_board_info *info)
{

         /* Things here */

         return 0;

}

 

static int foo_probe(struct i2c_client *client,
                            const struct i2c_device_id *id)
{ 

}

 

static int foo_remove(struct i2c_client *client)
{

         /* Things here */

         return 0;
}

 

static const struct i2c_device_id foo_id[] = {
         { "foo", 0 },
         { }
};

 

static struct i2c_driver foo_driver = {
         .driver = {
                 .name = "foo",
         },
         .probe  = foo_probe,
         .remove  = foo_remove,
         .id_table = foo_id,

         .class  = I2C_CLASS_CAM_DIGITAL,
         .detect  = foo_detect,
         .address_data = &addr_data,
};

 

Best Regards
