[PATCH v3] i2c/mux: Driver for PCA9541 I2C Master Selector

From: Guenter Roeck
Date: Tue Oct 19 2010 - 23:41:58 EST


This patch adds support for PCA9541, an I2C Bus Master Selector.
The driver is modeled as single channel I2C Multiplexer to be able to utilize
the I2C multiplexer framework.

v3 changes:
- Clarified and cleaned up comments.
- No longer pass "struct i2c_adapter *" as parameter.
Get it from client->adapter if needed.
- No longer pass "struct pca9541 *" as parameter.
Pass "struct i2c_client *" instead and get "struct pca9541 *" from it
if needed.
- Removed "struct i2c_client *client" from struct pca9541 since it is
no longer needed.
- Moved "pca9541_release_bus(client);" ahead of i2c_add_mux_adapter()
to avoid a possible race condition. Also protect the call with
i2c_lock_adapter() / i2c_unlock_adapter().
- Removed __devinit from pca9541_probe() and __devexit from pca9541_remove().

v2 changes:
- Added more detailed description and reasoning why the driver was implemented
as single-channel multiplexer.
- Modified arbitration algorithm, since access to i2c masters from interrupt
level is not a good idea. Instead of using hrtimers and handling arbitration
in interrupt, handle it from select_chan and either delay for short retry
periods or sleep for long (millisecond) periods.

+ * The PCA9541 is a bus master selector. It supports two I2C masters connected
+ * to a single slave bus.
+ *
+ * Before each bus transaction, a master has to acquire bus ownership. After the
+ * transaction is complete, bus ownership has to be released. This fits well
+ * into the I2C multiplexer framework, which provides select and release
+ * functions for this purpose. For this reason, this driver is modeled as
+ * single-channel I2C bus multiplexer.
+ *
+ * This driver assumes that the two bus masters are controlled by two different
+ * hosts. If a single host controls both masters, platform code has to ensure
+ * that only one of the masters is instantiated at any given time.
