The DS28E17 and DS7505 in conjunction support the Restart Condition. So, please discard my request for I2C_FUNC_STOP. It's not needed. But I have another question, this time regarding I2C_FUNC_NOSTART. The DS28E17 can do an I2C write transfer without Start Condition, to continue a previous write without Stop Condition. My driver already uses that internally to do continous writes of more than 255 bytes, the buffer limit of the DS28E17. BUT, the DS28E17 can only do this for writes. Not for reads. Does it make sense to expose that feature and announce it as I2C_FUNC_NOSTART then?
