The driver is indeed only handling PEC properly for one-shot block transactions. That does not mean the hardware itself doesn't support PEC in other cases. I'm almost certain that PEC is supported for non-block transactions (except SMBus Quick Command.) Not sure about byte-by-byte block transactions, but this should be tested first. Cleaning up broken code makes little sense, as we may have to undo some of the cleanups to get the driver to work properly. And no, I don't think "PEC was being set in the byte-by-byte block transaction". What was being set is the "automatically append CRC" bit in AUX_CTL, but my understanding is that this bit has no effect when SMBHSTCNT_PEC_EN itself isn't set. -- 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
