Ah, but see the documentation only says that high speed mode sets the
Base Clock divisor to zero; is does not say anything about tCKHigh or
tCKLow (clk_high and clk_low in my code respectively), which are the
only parameters which are manipulated for speeds greater than or equal
to 1.5MHz since:
# I forgot the "APB_freq /" part in the comment on my
aspeed_i2c_get_clk_reg_val(...)
# My function still does the computation correctly, I just forgot this
in the comment.
SCL_freq = APB_freq / (1 << base_clk) * (clk_high + 1 + clk_low + 1)
so if base_clk = 0, clk_high = 15, clk_low = 15, APB_freq = 50MHz
SCL_freq = APB_freq / (1 << base_clk) * (clk_high + 1 + clk_low + 1)
= 50000000 / (1 << 0) * (15 + 1 + 15 + 1)
= 50000000 / 32
= 1562500Hz
= ~1.5MHz
so maybe instead of setting a hard limit like I did, maybe the best
thing is to just check and see what the base_clk gets set to and if it
gets set to zero, we turn on high speed mode. What do you think?
