From: Noralf Trønnes <noralf@xxxxxxxxxxx> The controller can't support this flag, so remove it. Documentation/i2c/i2c-protocol states that all of the message is sent: I2C_M_IGNORE_NAK: Normally message is interrupted immediately if there is [NA] from the client. Setting this flag treats any [NA] as [A], and all of message is sent. >From the BCM2835 ARM Peripherals datasheet: The ERR field is set when the slave fails to acknowledge either its address or a data byte written to it. So when the controller doesn't receive an ack, it sets ERR and raises an interrupt. In other words, the whole message is not sent.
