Subject: [PATCHv6 1/2] i2c: designware: introduce a custom scl recovery for SoCFPGA platforms

The I2C pins on the SoCFPGA platforms do not go through a GPIO module,
thus cannot be recovered by the default method of by doing a GPIO access.
Only a reset of the I2C IP block can a recovery be successful, so this
change effectively resets the I2C controller, NOT any attached clients.

I am afraid here is a serious misunderstanding. The I2C bus recovery
procedure is a documented mechanism how to get a stalled bus back in the
case that a client device holds SDA low. This mechanism consists of 9
SCL pulses. A reset of the IP core is *not a recovery*. If SocFPGA
cannot togle SCL in some way, it cannot do recovery and
adap->bus_recovery_info should be NULL. Or did I miss something?

See, this function is named scl_recovery, but there is no SCL involved.
This is why I think there is the misunderstanding here.

From the original code, the first mechanism to a recovery is to acquire
a GPIO for the SCL line and send the 9 SCL pulses, after that, it does a
reset of the I2C module. For the SOCFPGA part, there is no GPIO line for
the SCL, thus the I2C module cannot even get a reset. This code allows
the function to reset the I2C module for SOCFPGA, which is the 2nd part
of the recovery process.

I understand your point here. Perhaps just call it i2c_socfpga_recovery()?

The second part is totally useless if the client device is holding SDA
low. Which is exactly the situation that recovery tries to fix. As I
said, if you can't control SCL, you don't have recovery.

No. adap->bus_recovery_info should be NULL.

This is recovery of the master and not the slave. We have a customer
that is the using I2C with the signals routed through the FPGA, and thus
are not GPIO. During a timeout, with this code, the driver is able to
recover the master.

Adding a bit more, because of patch:

ca382f5b38f3 ("i2c: designware: add i2c gpio recovery option")

the driver is now not able to reset the controller at all because it has
placed a strict dependency on getting a GPIO. Before this patch, during
a timeout, there was a simple call to i2c_dw_init_master(), which
ultimately resets the master.

Hi Dinh,

> This is recovery of the master and not the slave. We have a customer that

This is a different issue then. bus_recovery_info is only for stuck
clients, as I mentioned before. Resetting the controller can be done
anytime inside the driver by calling some reset routine. You don't need
an I2C core framework for that.

But when to do this reset, and how this relates to real bus recovery,
that you need to deal with the designware maintainers. I don't know the
HW at all.

All the best,

Wolfram
