[PATCH v4 RFC 1/2] [media] em28xx: retry I2C write ops if failed by timeout

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



At least on HVR-950, sometimes an I2C operation fails.

This seems to be more frequent when the device is connected
into an USB 3.0 port.

Instead of report an error, try to repeat it, for up to
20 ms. That makes the code more reliable.
