probe order for 2.6 sensor chips

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

 



This is a demonstration/debugging driver I wrote to test SMBus 2.0 support.

Until we support Host Notify (host-as-slave mode),
we can't really support hotplugged I2C devices well.

I don't recommend submitting it to 2.6 unless somebody asks for it.
