VI I2C don't have DMA support and uses PIO mode all the time.

Current driver uses writesl() to fill TX FIFO based on available
empty slots and with this seeing strange silent hang during any I2C
register access after filling TX FIFO with 8 words.

Using writel() followed by i2c_readl() in a loop to write all words
to TX FIFO instead of using writesl() helps for large transfers in
PIO mode.

So, this patch updates i2c_writesl() API to use writel() in a loop
instead of writesl().

I've thought a bit more about this and I wonder if we're simply reading
out the wrong value for tx_fifo_avail and therefore end up overflowing
the TX FIFO. Have you checked what the value is for tx_fifo_avail when
this silent hang occurs? Given that this is specific to the VI I2C I'm
wondering if this is perhaps a hardware bug where we read the wrong TX
FIFO available count.

Yes FIFO status shows all 8 slots available.

To be clear, TX slots availability in FIFO status before filling shows 8 words empty.

With writesl() when silent hang is seen, couldn't access any registers and with debug messages I see silent hang happens immediate during accessing any of i2c controller register after writesl() call


Also, HW wise VI I2C is similar to other I2C and FIFO depth is also 8 words. Confirmed from HW designers as well.

Using writesl() causes silent hang after filling some words in FIFO and most of time after filling 8 words and sometime after filling it with around 6 words.

I am not sure if this issue is specific to VI I2C alone as other I2C mostly use DMA for more than 8 words and I am not sure if we ever used other I2C in PIO mode for ~8 words transfer for slave devices we have on the platform.


Thanks
