I understand your point, but I'm guessing that the big-banging routine (or the protocol to be used) should be time-independent in order to run on different real HW PCs, right? Otherwise a 386DX and a 486DX2 could behave differently, right? Or is the "timing issue" you talk about more related to unpredictable latencies due to the way the SW virtualisation works? What about emulation? Do you think emulation would be more predictable? -- 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
