[PATCH v2] Bitbanging i2c bus driver using the GPIO API

From: Haavard Skinnemoen
Date: Sat Mar 10 2007 - 08:16:25 EST


This is a very simple bitbanging i2c bus driver utilizing the new
arch-neutral GPIO API. Useful for chips that don't have a built-in
i2c controller, additional i2c busses, or testing purposes.

To use, include something similar to the following in the
board-specific setup code:

#include <linux/i2c-gpio.h>

static struct i2c_gpio_platform_data i2c_gpio_data = {
.sda_pin = GPIO_PIN_FOO,
.scl_pin = GPIO_PIN_BAR,
};
static struct platform_device i2c_gpio_device = {
.name = "i2c-gpio",
.id = 0,
.dev = {
.platform_data = &i2c_gpio_data,
},
};

Register this platform_device, set up the i2c pins as GPIO if
required and you're ready to go.

This patch is different from the first patch in the following ways:
* Handles pins set up as open drain (aka multidrive) by toggling
the output value instead of the direction
* Handles output-only SCL pins the same way, and also does not
install a getscl() callback for such pins
* Does not add anything to include/linux/i2c-ids.h
* Sets the output value explicitly after changing the direction to
output.
* Plugs a memory leak in remove() -- algo_data wasn't freed.
* Prints out the pin IDs in decimal, with an extra note when clock
stretching isn't supported

This version has been compile-tested only. I'll give it a spin when I
get back to work on monday.

Dave, does this address your concerns?
