2009-10-04i2c: Hide probe errors caused by ACPI resource conflictsJean Delvare7-8/+12
When an ACPI resource conflict is detected, error messages are already printed by ACPI. There's no point in causing the driver core to print more error messages, so return one of the error codes for which no message is printed. This fixes bug #14293: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14293 Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>

2009-09-18i2c/tsl2550: Use combined SMBus transactionsJean Delvare1-32/+10
Make the I/O faster, mainly by using combined SMBus transactions when possible. While the TSL2550 datasheet doesn't say the device supports them, they seem to work just fine in practice, and a combined transaction is faster than two simple transactions in many cases and always more reliable. A side effect is to suppress the delays between SMBus writes and reads. The datasheet doesn't say they are needed and things work just fine for me without them. I also couldn't see any reason for the delay between reading the two channels. Nor for the loop to get a reading in the first place. The 400 ms delay between samples only matters at chip power-up, after that the chip always hold the previously sampled value so we never get to wait. All these changes make reading the lux value much faster and cheaper.

2009-06-19i2c: Use rwsem instead of mutex for board infoRodolfo Giometti3-6/+10
By using rwsem we can easily manage recursive calls of i2c_scan_static_board_info() function without breaking the locking. Signed-off-by: Rodolfo Giometti <giometti@linux.it> Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
2009-06-19i2c: Add a sysfs interface to instantiate devicesJean Delvare1-1/+122
Add a sysfs interface to instantiate and delete I2C devices. This is primarily a replacement of the force_* module parameters implemented by some i2c drivers. These module parameters were implemented internally by the I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD* macros, which don't scale well. This can also be used when developing a driver on a self-soldered board which doesn't yet have proper I2C device declaration at the platform level, and presumably for various debugging situations.

2009-06-19i2c: Limit core locking to the necessary sectionsJean Delvare1-23/+28
The i2c-core code tends to hold the core lock for longer than it should. Limit locking to the necessary sections for both performance and clarity. This is also a requirement to support I2C multiplexers in the future.
