I have had a few reports of problems with interrupts so far but could never find the time to track it down. Maybe now is the time. Please provide the output of: # lspci -s 00:1f.3 -vvv # grep i801_smbus /proc/interrupts Does the problem only happen when writing words, or does it also happen for other transfer types? Does it happen with the first transfer or randomly after some time? Please enable CONFIG_I2C_DEBUG_BUS and check if the driver complains about anything suspicious before the hang occurs. It would also be great if you could figure out where the driver code hangs. It might be in wait_event(), I suppose it would be safer to use wait_event_timeout() as other I2C bus drivers do. I'll prepare a patch. -- Jean Delvare SUSE L3 Support -- 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
