Yeah. I know. I should put into PPCBoot/U-Boot.
It's arelady there.
But in the docs it says it's only for SOFT_I2C aka bitbang!
Right, because you cannot toogle the pins at  your  liking  with  the
CPM's I2C controller.
a) can I toggle the pins using GPIO and still use HARD_I2C? or
Yes, you can. But this has not been implemented yet. And if  you  do,
you  will  find you have copied 90% of the soft_i2c driver so why not
use this from the beginning? Using HARD_I2C has _zero_ advantage  for
U-Boot.
b) can I use SOFT_I2C in PPCBoot and CPM I2C (8xx-algo) under linux?
Yes, you can.

Best regards,
