[PATCH] i2c-davinci: Handle signals gracefully

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

 



When a signal is caught while the i2c-davinci bus driver is transferring,
the drive just "abandons" the transfer and leaves the controller to fend
for itself. The next I2C transaction will find the controller in an
undefined state and often results in a stream of "initiating i2c bus recovery"
messages until the controller arrives in a defined state. This behaviour
also sends out "half" or possibly even mixed messages to I2C client
devices which may put them in an undesired state as well.

This patch fixes this issue by always attempting to finish the current
transaction, and only abort on bus errors. This keeps the controller in a
defined state, and is also much friendlier towards client devices, because
it will only send complete messages.

Before this patch, reading an I2C device in a loop and interrupting it
often resulted in a "initiating i2c bus recovery" storm and not being
able to communicate via I2C for several seconds. With this patch, I2C
transactions will not be interrupted or otherwise halfway completed.

v2: Completely ignore signals.
