I will continue work on patch 2. I just thought it might be nice to have a comment where you removed the code summarizing your findings. So we will remember about this in the future. Makes sense?

Makes sense? > Forgive me delayed response - holiday. The code removed was something extra, so I am not sure if it is necessary to add comment to the code, git log should be enough. Anyway I will post patches dealing with HSI2C_MASTER_ST_LOSE on transaction start very soon, so I can add relevant comment there.

Hi Andrzej, > Forgive me delayed response - holiday. No worries! > The code removed was something extra, so I am not sure if it is > necessary to add comment to the code, git log should be enough. If somebody later discovers this "new bit" and implements support for it, I am not sure this person will check git log to see if there has ever been support added and later removed. Also, it helps me reviewing when gory details are explicitly mentioned in the code. > Anyway I will post patches dealing with HSI2C_MASTER_ST_LOSE on > transaction start very soon, so I can add relevant comment there. Please do. Kind regards, Wolfram

HSI2C_MASTER_ST_LOSE state is not documented properly, extensive tests show that hardware is usually able to recover from this state without interrupting the transfer. On the other side enforcing transfer repetition in such case does not help in many situations, especially on busy systems and causes -EAGAIN and -ETIMEOUT errors. Moreover documentation says that such state can be caused by slave clock stretching, and should not be treated as an error.
