Subhashish, If you change the block read/write to 64 bytes and had a Beagle trace of it along with a patch, even if it was hacked, it would show you can:
- Install Ubuntu - Find the code in the i2c/smbus driver and modify it - Compile and run the kernel - Write a simple SMBus application to test - Give the app and patch for review and testing If you can do that, you can probably succeed with a general improvement to SMBus.
