Hi Ira:

[snip]

I see this exact hang on a MPC8349EA board. I poll my i2c sensors every
500ms, and it takes around 12 hours to produce a hang. The usual hang
has (CF | BB) set, however I have seen a hang with just BB (only once so
far in about 2 weeks).

I think the fixup should be run on 8349 as well, if not all processors.
I'm happy to test patches. I have a way to reliably trigger a lockup,
using another master on the i2c bus.

See my other post - hopefully a new patch is ready tomorrow/Thursday...

+		}

 }
 

The old sequence has always un-hung the bus for me. Yours might be
better. I'll try it next time the bus wedges up on me.

The easiest way to verify the /waveforms/ is to simply call the function somewhere else (e.g. in a i2c write call), and then record SCK and SDA with a scope.  I saw *huge* unnecessary delays in the original code, and by some creative interpretation of the (not very clear) 5200 data sheet I came to the write's and delays above.  If you have a scope, you might want to repeat the test with your '8349.

Best, Albrecht.
