For example, something like this: /* * If START_BUSY is still not clear, it means the controller may have * been stuck. In this case, reset the controller to recover. */ > + if (!!(iproc_i2c_rd_reg(iproc_i2c, M_CMD_OFFSET) & > + BIT(M_CMD_START_BUSY_SHIFT))) { > + /* re-initialize i2c for recovery */ > + bcm_iproc_i2c_enable_disable(iproc_i2c, false); > + bcm_iproc_i2c_init(iproc_i2c); > + bcm_iproc_i2c_enable_disable(iproc_i2c, true); > + } > + > /* flush both TX/RX FIFOs */ > val = BIT(M_FIFO_RX_FLUSH_SHIFT) | BIT(M_FIFO_TX_FLUSH_SHIFT); > iproc_i2c_wr_reg(iproc_i2c, M_FIFO_CTRL_OFFSET, val);
