Seems indeed up to the individual drivers implementation of master_xfer, whose return value is documented as: include/linux/i2c.h: * master_xfer should return the number of messages successfully include/linux/i2c.h- * processed, or a negative value on error I can indeed: if (ret != 2) { dev_err(.., "i2c write error, reg: %x\n"); return ret > 0 ? -EINVAL : ret; } *val = buf[0]; return 0; > > Otherwise: > Reviewed-by: Dave Stevenson <dave.stevenson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Thanks for checking > > > - dev_dbg(&client->dev, "%s: i2c write error, reg: %x\n", > > + dev_err(&client->dev, "%s: i2c read error, reg: %x\n", > > __func__, reg); > > return ret; > > } > > > > - ret = i2c_master_recv(client, val, 1); > > - if (ret < 0) { > > - dev_dbg(&client->dev, "%s: i2c read error, reg: %x\n", > > - __func__, reg); > > - return ret; > > - } > > + *val = buf[0]; > > > > return 0; > > } > > -- > > 2.39.0 > >
