RE: [PATCH v2 2/2] i2c: mediatek: fix i2c multi transfer issue in high speed mode

Dear Daniel,

1. I will rename "TRAN" & "TRANAC" & "I2C_TRAN_DEFAULT_VALUE" & "I2C_TRAN_DEFAULT_VALUE".

2. How does the hardware know that this transaction should be a "master code"?
When we set i2c speed > 400K , the hardware will send master code. We have a register to configure master codeïand usually we use the default value "00001000".

How does the hardware know what rate to use?
The i2c speed is defined in dts, and we will set the i2c speed in i2c register, so HW will know the rate to use.

When sending the master code, arbitration is supposed to occur, such that only one winning master can proceed with the following high speed transaction.
Where do you check that you won this arbitration?
Our i2c driver now only support one master.

3. I will delete the completion_done() function.

4. Don't we need to send the master code for *every* HS transaction, not just "auto_restart"?
When we don't use auto restart, we also need to send the master code, the master code is sent by HW automatically.
I am improving the master code section when use auto restart, and this will be released in the next patch.

"400000" => You already have a macro for this: MAX_FS_MODE_SPEED

Yes, I will use MAX_FS_MODE_SPEED.

Thanks!

"TRAN" and "TRANAC" are not good names; this should be "TRANSFER_LEN"
and "TRANSAC", based on the names of the registers to which you write these constants.

Furthermore, these are not "default" values, they are the transfer length and number of transactions for sending the "master code", so:

#define I2C_TRANSFER_LEN_MASTER_CODE 0x0001
#define I2C_TRANSAC_LEN_MASTER_CODE 0x0001

Similarly, I think the "TRANAC" in I2C_WRRD_TRANAC_VALUE and I2C_RD_TRANAC_VALUE should also be TRANSAC.

How does the hardware know that this transaction should be a "master code"?
Do you have to tell the hardware what value ('00001XXX') to use as the master code?
The Master Code must be sent at <= 400 kHz, not the target clock. How does the hardware know what rate to use?
When sending the master code, arbitration is supposed to occur, such that only one winning master can proceed with the following high speed transaction.
Where do you check that you won this arbitration?
If this is not implemented, adding a "TODO" would be helpful.

This completion_done() is only useful if you check the return value.
You should check it too, since we should only check for timeout if the message hasn't completed.

Don't we need to send the master code for *every* HS transaction, not just "auto_restart"?

"400000" => You already have a macro for this: MAX_FS_MODE_SPEED
