[PATCH v1 1/4] i2c: mux: Add i2c-arbitrator 'mux' driver
Doug Anderson
dianders at chromium.org
Thu Feb 14 05:02:09 EST 2013
The i2c-arbitrator driver implements the arbitration scheme that the
Embedded Controller (EC) on the ARM Chromebook expects to use for bus
multimastering. This i2c-arbitrator driver could also be used in
other places where standard i2c bus arbitration can't be used and two
extra GPIOs are available for arbitration.
This driver is based on code that Simon Glass added to the i2c-s3c2410
driver in the Chrome OS kernel 3.4 tree. The current incarnation as a
mux driver is as suggested by Grant Likely. See
<https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1877311/> for some history.

+GPIO-based Arbitration
+======================
+This uses GPIO lines between the AP (Application Processor) and an attached
+EC (Embedded Controller) which both want to talk on the same I2C bus as master.
+
+The AP and EC each have a 'bus claim' line, which is an output that the
+other can see. These are both active low, with pull-ups enabled.
+
+- AP_CLAIM: output from AP, signalling to the EC that the AP wants the bus
+- EC_CLAIM: output from EC, signalling to the AP that the EC wants the bus
+
+
+This mechanism is used instead of standard i2c multimaster to avoid some of the
+subtle driver and silicon bugs that are often present with i2c multimaster.
+
+
+Algorithm:
+
+The basic algorithm is to assert your line when you want the bus, then make
+sure that the other side doesn't want it also. A detailed explanation is best
+done with an example.
+
+Let's say the AP wants to claim the bus. It:
+1. Asserts AP_CLAIM.
+2. Waits a little bit for the other side to notice (slew time, say 10
+ microseconds).
+3. Checks EC_CLAIM. If this is not asserted then the AP has the bus and we are
+ done.
+4. Otherwise, wait for a few milliseconds and see if EC_CLAIM is released.
+5. If not, back off, release the claim and wait for a few more milliseconds.
+6. Go back to 1 (until retry time has expired).
+
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: i2c-arbitrator
+- bus-arbitration-gpios: Two GPIOs to use with the GPIO-based bus
+ arbitration protocol. The first should be an output, and is used to
+ claim the I2C bus for us (AP_CLAIM). The second should be an input and
+ signals that the other side wants to claim the bus (EC_CLAIM).
+- bus-arbitration-slew-delay-us: microseconds to wait for a GPIO to go high.
+- bus-arbitration-wait-retry-us: we'll attempt another claim after this many
+ microseconds.
+- bus-arbitration-wait-free-us: we'll give up after this many microseconds.
+- Standard I2C mux properties. See mux.txt in this directory.
+- Single I2C child bus node at reg 0. See mux.txt in this directory.
+
+
+Example:
+ i2c at 12CA0000 {
+ compatible = "acme,some-i2c-device";
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <0>;
+ };
+
+ i2c-arbitrator {
+ compatible = "i2c-arbitrator";
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <0>;
+
+ i2c-parent = <&{/i2c at 12CA0000}>;
+
+ bus-arbitration-gpios = <&gpf0 3 1 0 0>, <&gpe0 4 0 3 0>;
+ bus-arbitration-slew-delay-us = <10>;
+ bus-arbitration-wait-retry-us = <3000>;
+ bus-arbitration-wait-free-us = <50000>;
+
+ i2c at 0 {
+ reg = <0>;
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <0>;
+
+ i2c at 52 {
+ // Normal i2c device
+ };
+ };
+ };

+
+ This driver can also be built as a module. If so, the module
