Subject: [PATCH v3 1/1] at24: support eeproms that do not auto-rollover reads.

From: Sven Van Asbroeck <[email protected]>

Some multi-address eeproms in the at24 family may not automatically
roll-over reads to the next slave address. On those eeproms, reads
that straddle slave boundaries will not work correctly.

Solution:
Mark such eeproms with a flag that prevents reads straddling
slave boundaries. Add the AT24_FLAG_NO_RDROL flag to the eeprom
entry in the device_id table, or add 'no-read-rollover' to the
eeprom devicetree entry.

Note that I have not personally enountered an at24 chip that
does not support read rollovers. They may or may not exist.
However, my hardware requires this functionality because of
a quirk.

It's up to the Linux community to decide if this patch is useful/
general enough to warrant merging.

If this is truly specific to at24, then vendor prefix would be appropriate,
plus it'd go to an at24 specific binding file. However if it isn't I'd just
remove the above sentence. I guess the latter?

Binding changes would be nicer in a separate patch, too.

Yes, no-read-rollover is truly specific to at24.c, because it applies only
to i2c multi-address chips. The at25 is spi based so cannot have multiple
addresses.

So yes, "at24,no-read-rollover" would perhaps be a better name.

Regarding an at24 specific binding file. You're saying I should create
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/eeprom/at24.txt ? Should I indicate
that at24.txt "inherits from" eeprom.txt? Note that at25.txt does not
currently do this.

Hmm. I actually missed we didn't have one to begin with. at25.txt exists
and it documents a number of properties specific to at25, so if at24 will
have an at24-specific property, then I think it should go to a separate
file.

Aren't there really other chips which need this? It'd be (a little bit)
easier to just remove the sentence. :-)

The eeprom.txt file in the bindings directory actually describes the
bindings for at24. There's a patch[1] from Wolfram waiting for Rob's
ack that renames it to at24.txt. I hope that clears any confusion.

@Sven: please split the patch into two: one for bindings and one for code.

As for the name: I would change it to at24,no-read-rollover and remove
the fragment saying it's only supported in at24 - as I said: this file
only concerns at24 and will be renamed.

It's going to wait forever until it is sent to the DT list so
patchwork picks it up and is in my queue.
