2011-10-20 07:58:02     I2C transfer time out

Hi all,

  I'm working with 2010R1 toolchain and distribution in BF527 custom board.

  I'm using below APIs for I2C Read &Write communication from the user space.

  __s32 i2c_smbus_read_byte_data(int file, __u8 command);

  __s32 i2c_smbus_write_byte_data(int file, __u8 command, __u8 value);

  It's working fine,

But in the application framework after sport (enabling both RX & TX) configuration initialized,

i am getting "i2c i2c-0: smbus transfer timeout" often.

  Please could anyone give directions...

Thanks in advance

krish J

Which uClinux-dist version do you use? 2010R1-RC5? There are some bug fixing for i2c-bfin-twi.c since that release. Please checkout the latest i2c-bfin-twi.c driver from 2010R1 branch in kernel SVN repository.
