Writes from I2C bus often fail when testing the i2c-designware-slave.c with the slave-eeprom backend. The same writes work correctly when testing with a real 24c02 EEPROM chip. In the tests below an i2c-designware-slave.c instance with the slave-eeprom backend is configured to act as a simulated 24c02 at address 0x65 on an I2C host bus 6. 1. i2cset -y 6 0x65 0x00 0x55 Single byte 0x55 write into address 0x00. No data goes into simulated EEPROM. Debug prints from the i2c_dw_irq_handler_slave(): 0x1 STATUS SLAVE_ACTIVITY=0x0 : RAW_INTR_STAT=0x714 : INTR_STAT=0x204 0x1 STATUS SLAVE_ACTIVITY=0x0 : RAW_INTR_STAT=0x514 : INTR_STAT=0x4 2. i2ctransfer -y 6 w9@0x65 0x00 0xff- Write 8 bytes with decrementing value starting from 0xff at address 0x00 and forward. Only some of the data goes into arbitrary addresses. Content is something like below but varies: 00000000 f9 f8 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................| 00000050 00 00 00 00 00 00 ff fe 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................| 000000f0 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 fc fb fa |................| In this case debug prints were: 0x1 STATUS SLAVE_ACTIVITY=0x1 : RAW_INTR_STAT=0x514 : INTR_STAT=0x4 0x1 STATUS SLAVE_ACTIVITY=0x1 : RAW_INTR_STAT=0x514 : INTR_STAT=0x4 0x1 STATUS SLAVE_ACTIVITY=0x0 : RAW_INTR_STAT=0x714 : INTR_STAT=0x204 0x1 STATUS SLAVE_ACTIVITY=0x0 : RAW_INTR_STAT=0x514 : INTR_STAT=0x4 0x1 STATUS SLAVE_ACTIVITY=0x0 : RAW_INTR_STAT=0x514 : INTR_STAT=0x4 0x1 STATUS SLAVE_ACTIVITY=0x0 : RAW_INTR_STAT=0x514 : INTR_STAT=0x4 0x1 STATUS SLAVE_ACTIVITY=0x0 : RAW_INTR_STAT=0x514 : INTR_STAT=0x4 0x1 STATUS SLAVE_ACTIVITY=0x0 : RAW_INTR_STAT=0x514 : INTR_STAT=0x4 0x1 STATUS SLAVE_ACTIVITY=0x0 : RAW_INTR_STAT=0x514 : INTR_STAT=0x4 0x1 STATUS SLAVE_ACTIVITY=0x0 : RAW_INTR_STAT=0x510 : INTR_STAT=0x0 Both cases show there is more data coming from the receive FIFO still after detecting the STOP condition. This can be seen from interrupt status bits DW_IC_INTR_STOP_DET (0x200) and DW_IC_INTR_RX_FULL (0x4). Perhaps due interrupt latencies the receive FIFO is not read fast enough, STOP detection happens synchronously when it occurs on the I2C bus and the DW_IC_INTR_RX_FULL keeps coming as long as there are more bytes in the receive FIFO. Fix this by reading the receive FIFO completely empty whenever DW_IC_INTR_RX_FULL occurs. Use RFNE, Receive FIFO Not Empty bit in the DW_IC_STATUS register to loop through bytes in the FIFO. While at it do not test the return code from i2c_slave_event() for the I2C_SLAVE_WRITE_RECEIVED since to my understanding this hardware cannot generate NACK to incoming bytes and debug print itself does not have much value.

I've been testing the i2c-designware-slave.c recently and discovered these write issues. Your recent patch gave an idea what might cause them. In my solution I went testing DW_IC_STATUS_RFNE since according to datasheet it's equivalent to RX_FULL interrupt in case interrupts are masked. Seems to work here too. Does this fix the issue you were seeing? --- drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-designware-core.h | 1 + drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-designware-slave.c | 12 +++++++----- 2 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-designware-core.h b/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-designware-core.h index dbf6bdc5f01b..6d1df28dd93b 100644 --- a/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-designware-core.h +++ b/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-designware-core.h @@ -108,6 +108,7 @@ #define DW_IC_STATUS_ACTIVITY BIT(0) #define DW_IC_STATUS_TFE BIT(2) +#define DW_IC_STATUS_RFNE BIT(3) #define DW_IC_STATUS_MASTER_ACTIVITY BIT(5) #define DW_IC_STATUS_SLAVE_ACTIVITY BIT(6) diff --git a/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-designware-slave.c b/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-designware-slave.c index 1eac4f4d5573..295774a69b67 100644 --- a/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-designware-slave.c +++ b/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-designware-slave.c @@ -180,11 +180,13 @@ static int i2c_dw_irq_handler_slave(struct dw_i2c_dev *dev) &val); } - regmap_read(dev->map, DW_IC_DATA_CMD, &tmp); - val = tmp; - if (!i2c_slave_event(dev->slave, I2C_SLAVE_WRITE_RECEIVED, - &val)) - dev_vdbg(dev->dev, "Byte %X acked!", val); + do { + regmap_read(dev->map, DW_IC_DATA_CMD, &tmp); + val = tmp; + i2c_slave_event(dev->slave, I2C_SLAVE_WRITE_RECEIVED, + &val); + regmap_read(dev->map, DW_IC_STATUS, &tmp); + } while (tmp & DW_IC_STATUS_RFNE); } if (stat & DW_IC_INTR_RD_REQ) { -- 2.35.1
