Guenter Roeck 45f176aea6 i2c: i2c-dev: Create 'name' attribute automatically
The 'name' attribute is needed for all i2c-dev class devices, meaning
it can be created automatically by pointing to it in the class data
structure. This simplifies the code and reduces the probability for race
conditions (the name attribute should exist by the time the device is
announced to user space).

Jean Delvare 838bfa6049 i2c-dev: Add support for I2C_M_RECV_LEN
As the bus driver side implementation of I2C_M_RECV_LEN is heavily
tied to SMBus, we can't support received length over 32 bytes, but
let's at least support that.

In practice, the caller will have to setup a buffer large enough to
cover the case where received length byte has value 32, so minimum
32 + 1 = 33 bytes, possibly more if there is a fixed number of bytes
added for the specific slave (for example a checksum.)

The unit in which user-space can set the bus timeout value is jiffies
for historical reasons (back when HZ was always 100.) This is however
not good because user-space doesn't know how long a jiffy lasts. The

original value of HZ, this unit should be 10 ms, for compatibility.

David Brownell 9b766b814d i2c: Stop using the redundant client list
The i2c_adapter.clients list of i2c_client nodes duplicates driver
model state.  This patch starts removing that list, letting us remove
most existing users of those i2c-core lists.

 * The core I2C code now iterates over the driver model's list instead
   of the i2c-internal one in some places where it's safe:
      - Passing a command/ioctl to each client, a mechanims
        used almost exclusively by DVB adapters;
      - Device address checking, in both i2c-core and i2c-dev.

 * Provide i2c_verify_client() to use with driver model iterators.

 * Flag the relevant i2c_adapter and i2c_client fields as deprecated,
   to help prevent new users from appearing.

For the moment the list needs to stick around, since some issues show
up when deleting devices created by legacy I2C drivers.  (They don't
follow standard driver model rules.  Removing those devices can cause
self-deadlocks.)

Jean Delvare bd4217d8c6 i2c-dev: Unbound new-style i2c clients aren't busy
Let i2c-dev deal properly with new-style i2c clients. Instead of
considering them always busy, it needs to check wether a driver is
bound to them or not.

This is still not completely correct, as the client could become
busy later, but the same problem already existed before new-style
clients were introduced. We'll want to fix it someday.

David Brownell 907135aaa0 i2c-dev: "how does it work" comments
This adds some "how does this work" comments to the i2c-dev driver,
plus separators between the three main components:

  - The parallel list of i2c_adapters ("i2c_dev_list"), each of which
    gets a "struct i2c_dev" and a /dev/i2c-X character special file.

  - An i2cdev_driver gets adapter add/remove notifications, which are
    used to maintain that list of adapters.

  - Special file operations, which let userspace talk either directly to
    the adapter (for i2c_msg operations) or through cached addressing info
    using an anonymous i2c_client (never registered anywhere).

Plus there's the usual module load/unload record keeping.

After making sense of this code, I think that the anonymous i2c_client
is pretty shady.  But since it's never registered, using this code with
a system set up for "new style" I2C drivers is no more complicated than
always using the I2C_SLAVE_FORCE ioctl (instead of I2C_SLAVE).

David Brownell 53be795934 i2c: Remove i2c_algorithm.algo_control()
This removes:

 - An effectively unused hook:  i2c_algorithm.algo_control.

 - The i2c_control() call, used only by i2c-dev to call that
   unused hook or set two barely supported adapter params.

   (That param setting moves into i2c-dev.c ... still iffy
   due to lack of locking, but no other changes.)

As shown by diffstat, this is a net code shrink.  It also reduces the
complexity of the I2C adapter and /dev interfaces.

presumed actual size.)  Refuse to play such error prone games across

Jean Delvare 4b2643d7d9 i2c: Fix the i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data() prototype
Let the drivers specify how many bytes they want to read with
i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data(). So far, the block count was
hard-coded to I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX (32), which did not make much sense.
Many driver authors complained about this before, and I believe it's
about time to fix it. Right now, authors have to do technically stupid
things, such as individual byte reads or full-fledged I2C messaging,
to work around the problem. We do not want to encourage that.

I even found that some bus drivers (e.g. i2c-amd8111) already
implemented I2C block read the "right" way, that is, they didn't
follow the old, broken standard. The fact that it was never noticed
before just shows how little i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data() was used,
which isn't that surprising given how broken its prototype was so far.

There are some obvious compatiblity considerations:
* This changes the i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data() prototype. Users
  outside the kernel tree will notice at compilation time, and will
  have to update their code.
* User-space has access to i2c_smbus_xfer() directly using i2c-dev, so
  the changed expectations would affect tools such as i2cdump. In order
  to preserve binary compatibility, we give I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA
  a new numeric value, and define I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_BROKEN with the
  old numeric value. When i2c-dev receives a transaction with the
  old value, it can convert it to the new format on the fly.

Given that most systems have less than 10 i2c busses, most of the

The drawback is that lookup was in O(1) and is now in O(N), but given

Laurent Riffard d564baee29 [PATCH] i2c: drop empty i2c_driver.command implementations
Given that implementing i2c_driver.command is optional, there is no
point in an empty implementation thereof.

Greg Kroah-Hartman 79472132f5 [PATCH] I2C: move i2c-dev to use dynamic class devices
i2c-dev doesn't use the reference counting logic of struct class_device so move
it to the dynamic method.  This makes the code paths simpler and the driver
smaller.

Greg Kroah-Hartman 2b48716d1d [PATCH] I2C: Remove .owner setting from i2c_driver as it's no longer needed
Now that i2c_add_driver() doesn't need the module owner to be set by
hand, we can delete it from the drivers.  This patch catches all of the
drivers that I found in the current tree (if a driver sets the .owner by
hand, it's not a problem, just not needed.)

Laurent Riffard 35d8b2e6b8 [PATCH] i2c: Drop i2c_driver.{owner,name}, 1 of 11
We should use the i2c_driver.driver's .name and .owner fields
instead of the i2c_driver's ones.

This patch updates the core of the i2c drivers: it removes .name and
.owner fields from the struct i2c_device and modify various
functions to use struct device fields instead.

Jean Delvare 8a9947552d [PATCH] i2c: Drop i2c_driver.flags, 2 of 3
Just about every i2c chip driver sets the I2C_DF_NOTIFY flag, so we
can simply make it the default and drop the flag. If any driver really
doesn't want to be notified when i2c adapters are added, that driver
can simply omit to set .attach_adapter. This approach is also more
robust as it prevents accidental NULL pointer dereferences.
