> What should the command line interface look like? > > owfs /dev/i2c-?/address Just a suggestion concerning the internal structure of such an adapter:
If you look at Documentation/i2c/smbus-protocol it seems to be better to implement it only using the SMBus subset of the I2C protocol, if at all possible. Otherwise owfs would have to check whether the /dev/i2c-? device really supports the full I2C protocol (see Documentation/i2c/functionality ). The advantage I see with implementing the adapter based on the SMBus protocol is, that most motherboards contain SMBus controllers that are supported by the I2C subsystem. You can get access to theses buses e.g. off of SDRAM modules (see http://www.madhacker.org/locate_smbus.htm ) and the DS2482 could be easily (internally) attached to any PC.
