According to bcm283x.dtsi the 3 i2c busses have the same compatible string "brcm,bcm2835-i2c", but the changelog suggests that this bus is "special". Shouldn't we use a different compatible string?

There's dtparam=i2c2_iknowwhatimdoing which enables CPU access to this bus. It's useful for reading out the monitor EDID by the CPU, and for accessing controls (backlight, volume) on certain monitors. And I have a I2C touchscreen controller on HDMI DDC. >> &sdhci { >> status = "okay"; >> bus-width = <4>; >> -- >> 2.8.2 >> >> >> _______________________________________________ >> linux-arm-kernel mailing list >> linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org >> http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-i2c" in > the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html >

I just rounded up all the differences from downstream that I knew about into this patchset. But looking closer I see that the vc4 driver uses i2c2. So I'll drop this patch.

i2c2 is connected to the HDMI connector and is controlled by the firmware. Disable it to stay out of harms way. From the downstream commit: i2c-bcm2708/BCM270X_DT: Add support for I2C2 The third I2C bus (I2C2) is normally reserved for HDMI use. Careless use of this bus can break an attached display - use with caution. It is recommended to disable accesses by VideoCore by setting hdmi_ignore_edid=1 or hdmi_edid_file=1 in config.txt.
