Hi,all
I did a test and found that if the firmware image is transmitted via i2c,
it's too slow.
The test I did:
*slave side:
use i2c-slave-mqueue[1] to receive and queue messages from the remote
i2c master device. the driveri's message size is 120 bytes,queue size
is 32.
*master side:
test.sh:
#!/bin/sh
for i in {1..30}
do
i2ctransfer -y 3 w100 at 0x10 0xff- # send 100 bytes
done
$time test.sh
real 0m0.789s
user 0m0.076s
sys 0m0.328s
Then 30*100/0.789 = 3.8k bytes/s, it will take 2.4 hours to send a 32M image
Could we config the i2c to high speed mode? if so, how to configure it?
Thanks.
