2009-10-04i2c: Move misc devices documentationJean Delvare2-204/+0
Some times ago the eeprom and max6875 drivers moved to drivers/misc/eeprom, but their documentation did not follow. It's finally time to get rid of Documentation/i2c/chips.

2009-09-18i2c/chips: Remove deprecated pcf8574 driverWolfram Sang1-65/+0
The pcf8574 driver in drivers/i2c/chips which just exports its register to sysfs is superseded by drivers/gpio/pcf857x.c which properly uses the gpiolib. As this driver has been deprecated for more than a year, finally remove it.

2009-03-30Move the pcf8591 driver to hwmonJean Delvare1-90/+0
Directory drivers/i2c/chips is going away, so drivers there must find new homes. For the pcf8591 driver, the best choice seems to be the hwmon subsystem. While the Philips PCF8591 device isn't a typical hardware monitoring chip, its DAC interface is compatible with the hwmon one, so it fits somewhat. If a better subsystem is ever created for ADC/DAC chips, the driver could be moved there. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Cc: Aurelien Jarno <aurelien@aurel32.net>
2008-07-16i2c: Convert the max6875 driver to a new-style i2c driverJean Delvare1-1/+1
The new-style max6875 driver implements the optional detect() callback to cover the use cases of the legacy driver. I'm curious if anyone really needs this though, so it might be removed in the feature. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
2008-07-16i2c: Convert the pca9539 driver to a new-style i2c driverJean Delvare1-1/+9
The new-style pca9539 driver implements the optional detect() callback to cover the use cases of the legacy driver. Warning: users will now have to use the force module parameter to get the driver to attach to their device. That's not a bad thing as these devices can't be detected anyway. Note that this doesn't change the fact that this driver is deprecated in favor of gpio/pca953x. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>

2007-07-12i2c: Fix the i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data() prototypeJean Delvare1-1/+1
Let the drivers specify how many bytes they want to read with i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data(). So far, the block count was hard-coded to I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX (32), which did not make much sense. Many driver authors complained about this before, and I believe it's about time to fix it. Right now, authors have to do technically stupid things, such as individual byte reads or full-fledged I2C messaging, to work around the problem. We do not want to encourage that. I even found that some bus drivers (e.g. i2c-amd8111) already implemented I2C block read the "right" way, that is, they didn't follow the old, broken standard. The fact that it was never noticed before just shows how little i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data() was used, which isn't that surprising given how broken its prototype was so far. There are some obvious compatiblity considerations: * This changes the i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data() prototype. Users outside the kernel tree will notice at compilation time, and will have to update their code. * User-space has access to i2c_smbus_xfer() directly using i2c-dev, so the changed expectations would affect tools such as i2cdump. In order to preserve binary compatibility, we give I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA a new numeric value, and define I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_BROKEN with the old numeric value. When i2c-dev receives a transaction with the old value, it can convert it to the new format on the fly. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>

This patch removes the support for the W83697HF and W83627THF chips from the w83781d driver. These chips have no I2C/SMBus interface and are better supported by the Super-I/O-based w83627hf driver.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
