Well, I have an i2c driver for the CPM which supports both 8xx and 8260

I still haven't got around to testing the 8xx code). I avoid the issue

raised

here by using kmalloc(). The code works fine as a loadable module, and it
only allocates the dual port ram once, the first time the module is

loaded.

Of course, it is called drivers/i2c/i2c{-algo,}cpm.c.

Yes, thanks for the responses.  That was my solution too, and it is now
working.  Next up, how to get it to respond as a slave.  My hardware has 4
8260's, and they communicate via I2C.  I want one CPU to be the I2C master
and the other 3 to be slaves.  Potentially, I could make them all masters,
but that might require SW mods to support the multi-master environment.  Is
anyone aware of either solution?
