[U-Boot] I2C Register

[Ronny D]

Stefan,

My Customized ppc4xx I2C interface provides two I2C controllers. so i think we will have to use Hard I2C ( because i will have to modify the same in kernel too).

Shall i used the same i2c driver from u-boot by modifying the register or write my own driver for it?

i found the ppc4xx_i2c structure, but can i get the information about the each parameter or register used in that structure.

I see. So you should probably not base your I2C driver code on the PPC4xx 
code. Perhaps you could use the soft_i2c code, where you only need some GPIO's 
to control the I2C signals.

That's because the source code on the FTP server is reflecting the last 
release version. Please use the latest version from the git repository 
instead:

http://git.denx.de/?p=u-boot.git;a=summary

There is also the possibility to download a snapshort in this web page, if you 
can't use git for some reason.
 
Cheers,
Stefan
