Yes.

That might work, but using it in
master/slave mode simultanously won't work yet as I see it:

* After every transfer (as master), clocks get disabled. I assume the IP
core won't be able to detect its own address then.

At the begin of my work on this patchset I even denied clock disable call if slave is registered (to minimize code that can affect transfer). If only slave mode is used, then this logic is not needed.


* There is this code in tegra_i2c_init():

if (!i2c_dev->is_dvc) {
u32 sl_cfg = i2c_readl(i2c_dev, I2C_SL_CNFG);
sl_cfg |= I2C_SL_CNFG_NACK | I2C_SL_CNFG_NEWSL;
i2c_writel(i2c_dev, sl_cfg, I2C_SL_CNFG);
i2c_writel(i2c_dev, 0xfc, I2C_SL_ADDR1);
i2c_writel(i2c_dev, 0x00, I2C_SL_ADDR2);

}

It probably messes up the slave initialization in tegra_reg_slave().
At least I see that the slave address gets overwritten when I peek
the register after boot.


tegra_i2c_init is called on probe and resume. Also it is called in case of xfer fail. If xfer is ok, then I think slave addr must be kept unchanged.

Does that make sense to you?

As far as I understand it is a loopback mode. Probably it will not work (Stephen Warren already mentioned this).
But we can try to run it.
