Re: i2c driver's probe routine not getting called
I actually tried using the in tree i2c-mpc driver before sending out my email. This driver would silently reset the system when i2c accesses took place. So I guess I'll try to modify the old driver to support new OF interface. thanks LK From: Scott Wood <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Laxmikant Rashinkar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: linuxppc-embedded@ozlabs.org Sent: Wednesday, November 5, 2008 8:15:17 AM Subject: Re: i2c driver's probe routine not getting called Laxmikant Rashinkar wrote: > I have linux-2.6.27.1 running on a MPC8347 based board. > > When my freescale I2C driver is insmoded, it calls platform_driver_register() > successfully, but the probe routine doesn't get called. Is "your" freescale I2C driver different from "the" freescale I2C driver in drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-mpc.c? If so, you'll need to update it to be an of_platform driver like the in-tree driver is (or, just switch to the in-tree driver). -Scott ___ Linuxppc-embedded mailing list Linuxppc-embedded@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-embedded

i2c driver's probe routine not getting called
Hi, I have linux-2.6.27.1 running on a MPC8347 based board. When my freescale I2C driver is insmoded, it calls platform_driver_register() successfully, but the probe routine doesn't get called. AFAIK, this only happens if the device is not known. I could call platform_device_register() to make the device known, but it seems to be the wrong approach. Shouldn't the definitions in my device tree be doing that? Here is the i2c section of my device tree: [EMAIL PROTECTED] { #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <0>; cell-index = <0>; compatible = "fsl-i2c"; reg = <0x3000 0x100>; interrupts = <14 0x8>; interrupt-parent = <&ipic>; dfsrr; [EMAIL PROTECTED] { compatible = "dallas,ds1374"; reg = <0x68>; }; }; [EMAIL PROTECTED] { #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <0>; cell-index = <1>; compatible = "fsl-i2c"; reg = <0x3100 0x100>; interrupts = <15 0x8>; interrupt-parent = <&ipic>; dfsrr; }; Could something be wrong here? Note that the same drivers works fine under linux-2.6.15.4 all help appreciated thanks LK ___ Linuxppc-embedded mailing list Linuxppc-embedded@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-embedded
