AW: [PATCH 1/1] mfd: da9063: Support SMBus and I2C mode

Hi Adam,
quoted
From: Hubert Streidl <redacted>

By default the PMIC DA9063 2-wire interface is SMBus compliant. This
means the PMIC will automatically reset the interface when the clock
signal ceases for more than the SMBus timeout of 35 ms.

If the I2C driver / device is not capable of creating atomic I2C
transactions, a context change can cause a ceasing of the the clock
signal. This can happen if for example a real-time thread is scheduled.
Then the DA9063 in SMBus mode will reset the 2-wire interface.
Subsequently a write message could end up in the wrong register. This
could cause unpredictable system behavior.

The DA9063 PMIC also supports an I2C compliant mode for the 2-wire
interface. This mode does not reset the interface when the clock
signal ceases. Thus the problem depicted above does not occur.

This patch makes the I2C mode configurable by device tree. The SMBus
compliant mode is kept as the default.
Could we not just check the bus' functionality flags and set this accordingly?
Something like this is already done in regmap-i2c to determine how to access
the device:

 https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/base/regmap/regmap-i2c.c#L309

This seems cleaner than a new DT property, or will this not work in this
situation?
Thank you for the proposal. We were not aware of this possibility.

We experienced the SMBus timeout problem on a i.MX6 Solo. When looking
at the i2c-imx driver we see that it defines a list of functionality.

	return I2C_FUNC_I2C | I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_EMUL
		| I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_READ_BLOCK_DATA;

https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-imx.c#L1133

None of that seems to model the inability to perform atomic transactions
within the SMBus timeout. This is either a bug of this specific driver
or maybe the expressiveness of I2C_FUNC_* is not sufficient.

https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/include/uapi/linux/i2c.h#L88

What flag do you think we could check to find out whether the bus is
able to obey the SMBus timeout or not?
