[PATCH 4.9 082/120] i2c: piix4: Avoid race conditions with IMC

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

 



4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ricardo Ribalda Delgado <ricardo.ribalda@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 701dc207bf551d9fe6defa36e84a911e880398c3 upstream.

On AMD's SB800 and upwards, the SMBus is shared with the Integrated
Micro Controller (IMC).

The platform provides a hardware semaphore to avoid race conditions
among them. (Check page 288 of the SB800-Series Southbridges Register
Reference Guide http://support.amd.com/TechDocs/45482.pdf)

Without this patch, many access to the SMBus end with an invalid
transaction or even with the bus stalled.
