I2C is a two-wire bus developed by Philips used for connecting integrated
circuits. It is commonly used for connecting devices such
as EEPROMs,
temperature sensors, fan controllers, real-time clocks,
tuners, and other
types of integrated circuits. The iic interface provides a
means of communicating
with I2C-connected devices. The System Management Bus, or SMBus,
is a variant of the I2C bus with a simplified command
protocol and
some electrical differences.
Drivers for devices attached to the I2C bus will make use of
the following
data types:
i2c_tag_t Controller tag for the I2C bus. This is a
pointer to a
struct i2c_controller, consisting of function
pointers filled
in by the I2C controller driver.
i2c_op_t I2C bus operation. The following I2C bus operations are defined:
I2C_OP_READ
Perform a read operation.
I2C_OP_READ_WITH_STOP
Perform a read operation and send a STOP
condition on
the I2C bus at the conclusion of the read.
I2C_OP_WRITE
Perform a write operation.
I2C_OP_WRITE_WITH_STOP
Perform a write operation and send a STOP
condition on
the I2C bus at the conclusion of the
write.
i2c_addr_t I2C device address.
struct i2c_attach_args
Devices are attached to an I2C bus using this
structure. The
structure is defined as follows:
struct i2c_attach_args {
i2c_tag_t ia_tag; /* controller */
i2c_addr_t ia_addr; /* address of
device */
int ia_size; /* size (for
EEPROMs) */
};
The following functions comprise the API provided to drivers
of I2C-connected
devices:
iic_acquire_bus(ic, flags)
Acquire an exclusive lock on the I2C bus. This is
required
since only one device may communicate on the I2C
bus at a time.
Drivers should acquire the bus lock, perform the
I2C bus operations
necessary, and then release the bus lock.
Passing the
I2C_F_POLL flag indicates to iic_acquire_bus()
that sleeping is
not permitted.
iic_release_bus(ic, flags)
Release an exclusive lock on the I2C bus. If the
I2C_F_POLL
flag was passed to iic_acquire_bus(), it must also
be passed to
iic_release_bus().
iic_exec(ic, op, addr, cmdbuf, cmdlen, buf, len)
Perform a series of I2C transactions on the bus.
iic_exec()
initiates the operation by sending a START condition on the I2C
bus and then transmitting the address of the target device
along with the transaction type. If cmdlen is
non-zero, the
command pointed to by cmdbuf is then sent to the
device. If
buflen is non-zero, iic_exec() will then transmit
or receive
the data, as indicated by op. If op indicates a
read operation,
iic_exec() will send a REPEATED START before
transferring
the data. If op so indicates, a STOP condition
will be sent on
the I2C bus at the conclusion of the operation.
Passing the
I2C_F_POLL flag indicates to iic_exec() that
sleeping is not
permitted.
iic_smbus_write_byte(ic, addr, cmd, data, flags)
Perform an SMBus WRITE BYTE operation. This is
equivalent to
I2C_OP_WRITE_WITH_STOP with cmdlen of 1 and len of
1.
iic_smbus_read_byte(ic, addr, cmd, datap, flags)
Perform an SMBus READ BYTE operation. This is
equivalent to
I2C_OP_READ_WITH_STOP with cmdlen of 1 and len of
1.
iic_smbus_receive_byte(ic, addr, datap, flags)
Perform an SMBus RECEIVE BYTE operation. This is
equivalent to
I2C_OP_READ_WITH_STOP with cmdlen of 0 and len of
1.
The I2C controller driver must fill in the function pointers
of an
i2c_controller structure, which is defined as follows:
struct i2c_controller {
void *ic_cookie; /* controller private */
int (*ic_acquire_bus)(void *, int);
void (*ic_release_bus)(void *, int);
int (*ic_exec)(void *, i2c_op_t, i2c_addr_t,
const void *, size_t, void *, size_t,
int);
int (*ic_send_start)(void *, int);
int (*ic_send_stop)(void *, int);
int (*ic_initiate_xfer)(void *, i2c_addr_t,
int);
int (*ic_read_byte)(void *, uint8_t *, int);
int (*ic_write_byte)(void *, uint8_t, int);
};
The (*ic_acquire_bus)() and (*ic_release_bus)() functions
must always be
provided.
The controller driver may elect to provide an (*ic_exec)()
function.
This function is intended for use by automated controllers
that do not
provide manual control over I2C bus conditions such as START
and STOP.
If the (*ic_exec)() function is not provided, the following
5 functions
will be used by iic_exec() in order to execute the I2C bus
operation:
(*ic_send_start)(cookie, flags)
Send a START condition on the I2C bus. The I2C_F_POLL
flag indicates
that sleeping is not permitted.
(*ic_send_stop)(cookie, flags)
Send a STOP condition on the I2C bus. The I2C_F_POLL
flag indicates
that sleeping is not permitted.
(*ic_initiate_xfer)(cookie, addr, flags)
Initiate a transfer on the I2C bus by sending a START
condition and
then transmitting the I2C device address and transfer
type. The
I2C_F_READ flag indicates a read transfer; the lack of
this flag
indicates a write transfer. The I2C_F_POLL flag indicates that
sleeping is not permitted. The error code ETIMEDOUT
should be returned
if a timeout that would indicate that the device is not present
occurs.
(*ic_read_byte)(cookie, datap, flags)
Read a byte from the I2C bus into the memory location
referenced by
datap. The I2C_F_LAST flag indicates that this is the
final byte
of the transfer, and that a NACK condition should be
sent on the
I2C bus following the transfer of the byte. The
I2C_F_STOP flag
indicates that a STOP condition should be sent on the
I2C bus following
the transfer of the byte. The I2C_F_POLL flag
indicates
that sleeping is not permitted.
(*ic_write_byte)(cookie, data, flags)
Write the byte contained in data to the I2C bus. The
I2C_F_STOP
flag indicates that a STOP condition should be sent on
the I2C bus
following the transfer of the byte. The I2C_F_POLL
flag indicates
that sleeping is not permitted.
iic(4)
The iic API first appeared in NetBSD 2.0. OpenBSD support
was added in
OpenBSD 3.6.
The iic API was written by Steve C. Woodford and Jason R.
Thorpe for
NetBSD and then ported to OpenBSD by Alexander Yurchenko
