[PATCH] i2c/tsl2550: Use combined SMBus transactions

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



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.

Michele, Rodolfo, can you please test and confirm the driver still
works OK for you? Thanks.
