I have an Infineon PBA31308 bluetooth chip that I'm trying to test over UART3 on the BF548 EZ-KIT.

Lines 1044 and 1045 of user/blkfin-apps/bluez-utils/tools/hciattach.c are:

system("echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/i2c-0/0-0021/set_bit");

system("echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/i2c-0/0-0021/clear_bit");

Anyone know why these are here? They are trying to do something with the linux-2.6.x/drivers/i2c/chips/pcf8575.c driver, which to my knowledge, should not have anything with using bluetooth over a UART. I could activate this driver so that the calls to system() in hciattch succeed, but I'd like to know what the intended effect is before I do that.

Any color on the issue would be appreciated.

the guy who would know is currently on vacation, so when he gets back he should be able to comment

however, while i'm not familiar with bluetooth, that code really does not look right at all ...
