Hi,
For a project I needed to communicate with external hardware via the I2C
protocol. I took a look at the existing drivers in the linux kernel
source "drivers/i2c/busses".
Instead of buying yet another interface dongle (this time for I2C) I
decided to use an Arduino with an apropriate sketch as I2C adapter.
Currently I access the I2C adapter (Arduino) via a custom program
reading/writing to /dev/ttyACM0.
Do you think it would make sense to add an I2C driver to the Linux
kernel for an "Arduino as I2C adapter" solution?
Or could you propose another solution? Maybe just an "external" module
like the nvidia kernel module?
greetings,
Bernhard
