Hi, This series is an RFC to fix the i2c bus hang on A0 version of the Armada XP SoCs. It occured on the the eraly release of the OpenBlocks AX3-4 bords. Indeed the first variants of Armada XP SoCs (A0 stepping) have issues related to the i2c controller which prevent to use the offload mechanism and lead to a kernel hang during boot. The best solution will be to detect the SoCs version at runtime and use it in the driver, but I chosed to submit this version in case CPU version detection feature takes more time than expected (and we already reached the rc6 kernel). Thanks, Gregory Gregory CLEMENT (3): arm: mvebu: add new dts file for old variant of Openblocks AX3-4 i2c: mv64xxx: Fix bus hang on A0 version of the Armada XP SoCs i2c: mv64xxx: Document the newly introduced Armada XP A0 compatible .../devicetree/bindings/i2c/i2c-mv64xxx.txt | 2 +- .../arm/boot/dts/armada-xp-a0-openblocks-ax3-4.dts | 40 +++++ .../dts/armada-xp-common-openblocks-ax3-4.dtsi | 177 +++++++++++++++++++++ arch/arm/boot/dts/armada-xp-openblocks-ax3-4.dts | 164 +------------------ drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-mv64xxx.c | 8 + 5 files changed, 227 insertions(+), 164 deletions(-) create mode 100644 arch/arm/boot/dts/armada-xp-a0-openblocks-ax3-4.dts create mode 100644 arch/arm/boot/dts/armada-xp-common-openblocks-ax3-4.dtsi -- 1.8.1.2 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-i2c" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
