+===============================================
+Device Tree for I2C slave message queue backend
+===============================================
+
+Some protocols over I2C/SMBus are designed for bi-directional transferring
+messages by using I2C Master Write protocol. This requires that both sides
+of the communication have slave addresses.
+
+This I2C slave mqueue (message queue) is used to receive and queue
+messages from the remote i2c intelligent device; and it will add the target
+slave address (with R/W# bit is always 0) into the message at the first byte.

So the address 0x10 in the example below is the address of the I2C
controller?

There is no mention of mqueue (or queue) in these specs. Where does that
come from? Perhaps something more closely matching the protocol would be
better name.

Would there be other slaves?

The common binding states 'multi-master' property should be present.

I need a more complete example.

Hi Rob, This is mqueue comes from, not from specs directly.

Hi Eduardo,

Looks like the slave reg missed the key value bit:

Example: reg = <(I2C_OWN_SLAVE_ADDRESS | 0x42)>;

Ack. Either that or a bit more explanation, e.g. if sending
packets is planned from userspace?
